Malone Dies
Penguin Main Series Number 1691. 1st Edition, published 1962.
‘Malone’, writes Malone, ‘is what I am called now.’ On his deathbed, whittling away the time with stories and revisions of stories, the octogenarian Malone's account of his condition is contradictory and intermittent, shifting with the vagaries of the passing days: without mellowness, without elegiacs; wittier, jauntier, and capable of darker rages than his precursor Molloy. Malone promises silence, but as a storyteller he delivers irresistibly more.
Condition grading: Very Good. Minor marks and foxing spots to rear cover. Usual page tanning for age. Binding tight. The photographs form part of the description.
