FIRST EDITION. Half title. Orig. black cloth. Black printed d.w., unclipped; edges rubbed, rear panel & verso marked, small closed tear to rear panel. Inscribed 'To my co-author and his wife my fellow countrywoman with love and gratitude London September 1959' Paul Ignotus, 1901-1978, was a Hungarian journalist, interned by the…Communist government while working for the BBC. Political Prisoner is an account of the fifteen years he spent in near total isolation, and the brutality he witnessed. Most moving is the chapter on falling in love with a woman in a neighbouring cell (through the seemingly time-honoured method of tapping on the walls). We can find no record of a co-author, but the inscription is both warm and intriguing.
