Descrizione libro Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A tiny bit shop soiled - otherwise it looks unread and new. A mammoth collection from a voracious reader, and it is interesting to speculate how Updike found the time to dpo anything other than write. A superb collection. It's a shame the publisher used pulp paper. It is already yellowing - or should that be 'embrowning'? I doubt this has been read, and it's as thick as a brick at 900 pages. This is industrial scale journalism, and it is fascinating. Language: eng. Codice articolo ABE-1514113355866
