With more than thirty years’ experience of collecting literary first editions, I specialise in the areas of both contemporary and earlier fiction, poetry, drama and children’s books with particular emphases on signed modern firsts, authors’ first and early published books, American and Irish literature and literary prize-winning writers.
The aim of this website is to highlight a small selection of collectable and scarce titles. Every effort has been made to describe the condition of the books accurately, but satisfaction is of course guaranteed. This means, unequivocally, that any book may be returned if it does not come up to expectations.
All prices are in Sterling.
