The Discomfort Zone, Jonathan Franzen. 2006. London: Fourth Estate. First edition. Small octavo. First UK edition and printing. Grey cloth in original dust jacket designed by Jo Leeds. This copy signed by the author at the title page. Condition: Fine in near fine dust jacket, unclipped (£16.99) and complete, very sharp and fine but for some rubbing and small chips along the front flap joint and faint mark to rear panel. Grey cloth with slightly discoloured patch, possibly from publisher error(?) and a few small creases to rear board. Binding tight and square, the textblock clean and sharp. Internally clean, fine throughout. An attractive example.
