Cain’s Book

First UK edition. Publisher’s original red cloth boards with silver lettering to spine. Foxing to edges; otherwise a clean and unmarked copy. In good unclipped dust jacket, age-toned and with some chipping to edges and minor loss to spine ends and head of lower panel. *** Autobiographical account about a junkie’s life in New York. A beat classic that holds its own alongside William Burroughs’s better known drugs novel Naked Lunch.
