CALVINO, Italo. Time and the Hunter
CALVINO, Italo. Time and the Hunter. Trans. from the Italian by William Weaver. London: Jonathan Cape. 1970. 8vo. First British edition. Publisher’s black cloth lettered in gilt to the spine, in the wonderful wraparound dust jacket designed by Stanley Chapman. A near fine example, the cloth clean and bright, the binding tight and square. A few faint marks to the textblock top and bottom edges, negligible. The contents fine but for a couple of faint marks to the endpapers. Perhaps a very faint odour. The dust jacket unclipped (25s net/£1.25 net) and fine but for one or two tiny bumps to corners. Uncommon as such.
Originally published in Italy as ‘Ti con zero’ and in the US as ‘t zero’. A collection of scientific and sometimes mathematical short stories based loosely on the life of a lion hunter, many narrated by the loveable and ubiquitous Qfwfq, introduced in Cosmicomics.
