Signed by Author   A fine copy, in the original orange embossed boards, black cloth spine lettered in silver, orange cloth slip-case.Deluxe issue of the sixtieth anniversary edition, no. 156 of 226 copies signed by the author. Originally banned for obscenity, The Ginger Man (Paris, 1955) has since become one of the best-selling books of all time. It follows the life and loves of an American student, Sebastian Dangerfield, at Trinity College in post-war Dublin. Its original publication under the Olympia Press’s pornographic imprint ‘The Traveller’s Library’ embroiled Donleavy in decades of legal cases. This edition includes a foreword by Johnny Depp (long rumoured to be interested in producing a film of this book), an introduction by Sean O’Reilly, and some appendices dealing with the book’s publishing history.
Beautiful Copy. Collector’s Item.
