Rushdie, Salman (1988) ‘The Satanic Verses’, signed UK first edition

Salman Rushdie (1988) ‘The Satanic Verses’, UK first edition, first printing published by Viking. Signed at the Hay-on-Wye Festival on 30 May 2016. A photograph of Rushdie signing books is loosely interred as provenance. A book that led to the infamous fatwa. As a result Rushdie had to live in hiding for many years.

Condition: a fine copy without any bumps and knocks. Sharp corners, clean throughout. Near fine dust jacket with a touch of the usual fading to the spine.
