First UK Edition. Black hard cloth with the slightly sunned, unclipped dust-jacket, which also has some blotches of foxing on inner flaps and on the endpapers. No old inscriptions or other internal markings. A very good copy in a very good plus unclipped dust jacket. Originally published in French translation as ‘La Porte de Pierre’ at the end of World War II. Now something of a Surrealistic classic, The Stone Door is described by its publisher as “an inspired, phantasmagoric journey into a wildly surreal world”.
