Shadow Dance

CARTER, Angela

CARTER, Angela Shadow Dance

Heinemann, 1966.

First edition. Publisher's black cloth, lettered gilt, in the striking pink dustwrapper by Roger Roberts. A fine copy in a very near fine dustwrapper, with only a hint of the almost inevitable fading to the spine.

Carter's first book.
A glowing review from Anthony Burgess adorns the front cover:
"I've read this book with admiration, horror, and other relevant emotions, including gratitude that we seem to have here a very distinctive talent that's going to be a major one. Angela Carter has remarkable descriptive gifts, a powerful imagination and - what I admire and envy more than anything - a capacity for looking at the mess of contemporary life totally without flinching."
