Publisher: Elek, 1956

Edition: 1st UK thus

Introduced and translated by Alec Brown, this is a superb rendition of Zola's classic novel about the psychopathic manipulations of cheminot Lantier. The anthropomorphic treatment of the train is outstanding.  This book has age-related defects but is eminently collectable and readable.  Superb cover art work. There is some foxing to page and block edges; it opens a little loosely. The jacket suffers some loss to spine top and lower edge.  Rear a little grubby. But not price clipped and largely intact in good, presentable condition.

Book Condition: Very good
