The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time

Black cloth boards with gilt lettering to spine. Fine, in fine dust jacket. Illustrated throughout with b/w drawings and diagrams. *** A beautiful first printing of Mark Haddon’s landmark novel. *** A curious note about The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time… The first printing is markedly heavier (610g.) than later printings (460g). It is printed on a different kind of paper, which also explains why the pages have stayed so beautifully white. Later printings are prone to age-tanning, as you can see in our copy of the 11th printing. (We have added a picture of both printings.) The dust jacket of the first printing is a darker shade.
