J.M. Coetzee: Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee
Edition: First Edition, First Printing
Format: Octavo, 220 pp. ISBN:9780436204890
Description:
A near-new, highly collectible first edition of J.M. Coetzee's Disgrace, the novel that earned him his second Booker Prize and stands as one of the defining works of contemporary literature. This is the true first edition published by Secker & Warburg in 1999.
Condition:
A near-new copy, exceptionally well-preserved and presenting with outstanding freshness. The binding is tight, square, and free of any lean, with the boards clean, sharp, and unmarred by rubbing or bumping. The text block is crisp and bright, with pages that appear unread and entirely free of markings, inscriptions, underlining, or other signs of use. First State Dust Jacket unclipped showing the price 14.99 pounds and mentions Shortlisted for The Booker Prize 1999. The dust jacket remains bright and unfaded, showing no chips, tears, or creases, and only the faintest trace of handling. Overall, a superior example, seldom encountered in such exemplary condition.
About The Novel:
Disgrace follows David Lurie, a Cape Town professor whose life collapses after a scandal forces him into exile on his daughter's remote Eastern Cape farm. What begins as a personal downfall becomes a profound exploration of power, violence, race, and redemption in post-apartheid South Africa. Coetzee's spare, incisive prose has made this novel a modern classic cornerstone of his Nobel Prize winning literary novels and winner of the 1999 Booker Prize.
A Collector's Copy:
A premium, near-new first edition of one of the most important novels of the late 20th century. An exceptional acquisition for collectors of Booker Prize winners, modern literature, or Nobel laureates.
