Description

Monsieur, or the Prince of Darkness was the first book in the Avignon Quintet. Durrell often referred to the works as a "quincunx." He described them as "roped together like climbers on a rockface, but all independent. a series of books through which the same characters move for all the world as if to illustrate the notion of reincarnation." Winner of the James Tait Black Memorial Prize in 1974. 277p. Tight, crisp copy. Name of previous owner on ffep, else fine
