Kingsley Amis MR BARRETT'S SECRET Signed Hardback
First edition second print hardback of MR BARRETT'S SECRET (And Other Stories) by Kingsley Amis and published by Hutchinson in 1993. Signed and dated by Amis on the title page. Numberline is 3 5 7 9 8 6 4 2.The book is in near fine condition (black cloth boards with gilt lettering to spine) with only very light bumping to the head of the spine. The book is in a near fine unclipped dust jacket which has very light creasing to the top of the front cover. Internally the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears or other inscriptions.
In this volume of short stories, Amis also uses variety to entertain us. We discover why Mr. Barrett worries about his daughter's association with the poet Browning, and we share a bizarre incident with a timid literary agent who becomes a hostage. In another, more eerie story, a parson meets an identical twin he didn't know he had, with unnerving results.
