Hilary Mantel THE ASSASSINATION OF MARGARET THATCHER First Edition Signed

First edition first print hardback of THE ASSASSINATION OF MARGARET THATCHER (Stories) by Hilary Mantel and published by Fourth Estate London in 2014. Signed by Hilary Mantel on the title page. Single number '1' on the copyright page indicating a first printing. Includes 'Signed First Edition' wraparound band.

The book is in near fine condition (black cloth boards with gold lettering to spine) with just a small dent to the top edge of the front board. The book is in a near fine unclipped dust jacket (protected in an archival sleeve) which has just a bit of light general wear (nothing much to speak of). Internally the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears or other inscriptions.

In these ten bracingly transgressive tales all Hilary Mantel's gifts of characterisation and observation are fully emgaged ushering concealed horrors into the light.Childhood cruelty is played out behind the bushes in Comma; nurses clash in Harley Street over something more than professional differences; and in The Assassination of Margaret Thatcher staying in for the plumber turns into an ambiguous and potentially deadly waiting game.
