VACANT POSSESSION

First edition, first printing. Publisher's original green cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in the Suzanne Perkins illustrated dustwrapper. A fine copy, the binding square and firm, the cloth bright and fresh. The contents, with toning to the poor quality paper stock, are otherwise clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the very lightly rubbed price-clipped dustwrapper that remains without fading, loss or tears. A lovely copy.

The author's second novel and sequel to 'Every Day is Mother's Day', Mantel's debut published the previous year.
