FIRST EDITION / FIRST PRINTING [1987] FARRAR STRAUS & GIROUX

Dust jacket is in excellent condition with some light edge wear.  Book itself looks and reads nicely;  pristine cover and white, unmarked pages.  Some foxing to outer page edges and a bit of a bend to pages towards the end of the book. 

Following Rites of Passage, this is second of Golding's Sea Trilogy. Half-way to Australia in a wilderness of heat, stillness and sea mists, a ball is held on a becalmed ship. In this surreal atmosphere the passengers dance and flirt, while beneath them thickets of weed spread over the hull.
