The Pueblo; A Mountain Village on the Costa Del Sol

London: Allen Lane, 1973. First U.K. Edition. Octavo. 23cm. Publisher's terracotta cloth titled in gilt to spine. Dustjacket. [xi]; 285pp. Scuffing and some light wear to the edges and extremities, minor bumping to spine ends; internally clean with a review slug taped to the title page, and the review itself taped to the front flyleaf, with the reviewer's signature in pencil, the reviewer's notes and corrections are visible throughout in pencil; in a clean dustjacket with some tape residue to the front panel where the Random House review slug was originally placed. A very good copy.

From the library of Nathaniel Tarn, noted poet, translator, anthropologist and, in this case reviewer, with his signature and annotations. A record of the history of a small village on Spain's Cost Del Sol which at the time was just beginning to be a major tourist destination after decades of grinding poverty and neglect on what used to be called The Hunger Coast before it became a place for over-inebriated tourists to get sunburn and fall asleep by the hotel pool.

Price: $50.00
