FAHRENHEIT 451

New York: Ballantine Books, 1953. First Edition. Mass market paperback. Very good. The first appearance in print, a paperback original (41), which preceded the hardcover issue by a month. Arguably Bradbury's most important work, a dystopian novel set in the not too distant future when firemen burn books forbidden by the totalitarian regime. Mass market paperback. Original pictorial paper wrappers, with cover art by Joseph Mugnaini. Typical toning to the contents, with a bit of mild edgewear to the wrappers; else very good or better. (Inventory #: 77716)
