Library Addition: William Golding’s The Inheritors

Among my many collecting vectors is obtaining first editions of all the books on David Pringle’s Science Fiction: The 100 Best Novels. This used to be fairly pricey, but I found a nice copy that was quite affordable.

Golding, William. The Inheritors. Faber and Faber, 1955. First edition hardback, a Fine- copy with a bump at head in a Near Fine dust jacket with a few faint, tiny spots to top rear outer corner, slight spotting at very top and bottom of flaps, slight bump at head, and numerous small blind side spots. All in all a very nice copy. Novel of Homo Sapiens driving the last Neanderthals to extinction. Pringle, Science Fiction: The 100 Best Novels 19. Magill, Survey of Science Fiction Literature, pages 1036-1039. Bought from a fellow Biblio dealer for £179.80 (including shipping).
