UK Edition of a Pulitzer Prize Winner
Beloved
Publication: London: Chatto and Windus, 1987. First British edition.

[viii], 275, [5: blank] pages.
Edition + Condition: First edition (first printing with no indication of later printings). Page block tanned even more than most UK books (which use very bad paper, historically), but otherwise fine in a near fine dust jacket with the original price covered by a £14.95 sticker.
