Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. 1st Edition. The only SIGNED copy of the true first hardback edition of this superb play on the internet; it was written for radio and it differs considerably to the rewritten stage version, where it was retitled 'Indian Ink'. This is the first printing of the hardback, and it is as near perfect as it could be for the collector. Tom Stoppard has signed this on the title page. The unclipped jacket is also perfect, and is protected. Moving, fascinating, allusive, it explores the cultural and political legacies of India and England. One of this extraordinary writer's very greatest plays. Signed by Author(s). Codice articolo ABE-1730797554133
