The Ginger Man, signed
J.P. Donleavy
DONLEAVY, J.P. (1926-2017). The Ginger Man. Paris: Olympia Press, 1955.

Signed first edition of the author's first book, published in wrappers in Paris. The Ginger Man, Donleavy's best-known work and one of Modern Library's top 100 novels, was initially banned in both Ireland and the U.S. for reason of obscenity. Signed on the half-title.

Thick 12mo. Original printed wrappers (sticker on the back, "Olympia Press / 9 francs," presumably covering outdated price, some small stains to front cover, tiny spots of wear, erasure to front free endpaper); custom box.
