365 pages; Near Fine/Very Good Plus. Full number sequence. Red cloth and black boards with bright silver lettering. Very soft bump to top corner tips. Boards are straight, tips are pointed, spine is square and pages are clean. DJ has tiny bit of shelf rub at corner tips. Top spine tip has tiny chip. Now in protective sleeve. A novel about a German who tried to kill Hitler, and of all the Germans who did, Count von Stauffenberg is the most vivid and perhaps the least understood. Nobody else in America writes like Paul West, Seymour Krim has said. He'll stay in your brain until the day you die. In this, his 9th novel, West has created a new style, terse and eloquently direct, in which to render Stauffenberg's joys, doubts, and the pain of his final assignation with Hitler and his infernal crew.
