O’BRIEN, Edna. The Love Object.

125.00

1 in stock

London: Jonathan Cape, 1968. Crown octavo. First edition. First impression. pp. 189. Pink paper boards, titled in gilt on spine. A fine copy in very good  unpriced-clipped dust jacket designed by O.M. Tentacle.

“That object on which the unfocused emotions of the deprived and lonely fasten obsessively is the subject of [this book]. In no case can the object sustain the weight of expectation: the lover eludes commitment, the longed for party is a drunken disappointment, the coveted piece of furniture in the shop window is a dab mistake in the front room, the treasured mystery gift is the result of a postal error.” (Dust jacket).
