Boston : Houghton Mifflin, 1981. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Very Good. Octavo. David Frampton. Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1981, as dated by Houghton Mifflin on the title page; 1982, as dated by Cape Cod Scriveners on the copyright page. Signed by Theroux. ARC (Advance Review Copy) for the First U.S. Edition, accompanied by an inscribed business card from Houghton Mifflin Manager of Advertising and Publiciity, Carolyn Amussen to the unnamed recipient of the ARC, laid in. See scans. Signed by Theroux, without inscription, on the title page. One of approximately just 350 ARC copies issued. Octavo, perfect-bound wraps illustrated as per the then-upcoming jacket design by Paul Bacon Studio, Inc. for the impending first edition; just a small handful of the woodcut illustrations by David Frampton are ion the ARC; orange cloth and blue-gray paper boards with black spine imprinting; 374 pp. A much-better-than Very Good example, with a very faint cover crease and a coule of smudges. See scans. Theroux's 1981 tale of a middle-aged professor's estrangement-escape from modern society by way of a "muddled, metaphysical journey into the jungle" won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize, was named the Yorkshire Post Novel of the Year, and was the basis of the (now) critically well-regarded Peter Weir - Harrison Ford film of the same name in 1996. A very collectible form of the title, and, with the presentation ephemera (which reads: "You'll be surprised by this Theroux - a departure - and (underlined) Very powerful, How are you ?"), without doubt the scarcest form.
