Description
Autographed by author. 1964 paperback cover has some wear. Pages are clean and the binding is secure.
This signed copy of Eric Barker’s “Looking for Water” offers a unique glimpse into the mind of one of Britain’s most celebrated post-war novelists. Published in 1964, this work captures the disillusionment and existential angst of the era, as Barker’s protagonist grapples with the aftermath of World War II and the changing social landscape of the 1960s. Barker’s spare yet evocative prose invites readers to explore themes of alienation, identity, and the search for meaning in a world that often seems devoid of purpose. While the paperback cover shows signs of wear, a testament to its well-loved status, the clean pages and secure binding ensure that this autographed copy remains a treasured addition to any collection of 20th-century British literature. For collectors and readers alike, this signed edition offers a tangible connection to Barker’s artistic vision and a poignant reminder of the enduring power of great literature to reflect the complexities of the human experience.
