LOWRY, Malcolm
Under the Volcano
First edition, preceding the English edition. Some stains on the front board and the spine, an about very good copy, lacking the dustwrapper (jacket flaps laid into the book). Lowry's masterwork, an expressionistic novel of the final, desperate day of a former British consul drinking himself to death in Mexico. Basis for the John Huston film featuring Albert Finney (who was nominated for an Oscar) and Jacqueline Bisset. Ralph Ellison's copy with his ownership Signature, and with a few pencil notations by Ellison including: "Conrad. Lord Jim."
