Item #326015

The first publication of this now celebrated satirical novel (after serialization in two issues of a Russian language periodical). The tiny marginal notations appear to correspond to the page numbers in the Harper and Row proofs of the American edition, suggesting the hand of an early and attentive reader.
A very nice copy and scarce thus.
