Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Jacket by Nicolas Bentley (illustratore). 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, spine faded, some yellowing to white parts of jacket, some spotting and offsetting to endpapers, not price clipped (£3.95), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 124pp. On arrival as a medical orderly at Suez in 1941, Faulkes is surprised and alarmed to be greeted by a ghost from his family's past. Grinning and dropping enigmatic hints, there is Uncle Raymond, slyly referring to Faulkes' Aunt. This turns out to be Nadia, the beautiful Copt installed in Cairo, who refuses to answer Raymond's letters, however pleading. Faulkes is enlisted to track her down, but it is an operation so bizarre and bungled, that it will leave all their lives marked. In a deft, stylish and intelligent comedy, Newby evokes all the mystery, farce and splendour of the wartime Egypt that he knew so well. Percy Howard Newby (1918-97), at his entertaining and perceptive best. Newby, who had served in the Egyptian Desert during the War, taught English Literature at King Fouad University in Cairo until 1946 and was later the first winner of the Booker Prize. Quite a scarce book. Codice articolo 012400
