Product Description

The first reissue of Bradbury's first book since it was published by Arkham House in 1947.
Bradbury rewrote and revised about half of the stories for The October Country and the original versions of his early work remained out of print until this limited edition reissue.
For this edition, edited by Donn Albright, spelling errors were corrected, but the text was kept intact.
In addition, four other stories from the same era have been added.
Each story is prefaced by a reproduction of the magazine cover where it originally appeared.
At the back of the book are facsimiles of letters and typescripts related to Dark Carnival, all of which are published here for the first time.
This edition also includes a history of Dark Carnival by Jon Eller, an introduction by Bradbury, and an afterword by Clive Barker.
There were 700 numbered copies, signed by Bradbury and Barker.
xxiii, 479 pages.
First edition of this expanded edition.
A fine copy in a near fine dust jacket with a short tear on the rear panel.
In a near fine slipcase.
