DOUGLAS ADAMS : Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency [and] The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul

Heinemann, London 1987 and 1988.

First Editions (first printings)of Adams' two Dirk Gently novels. Individual descriptions as follows: 'Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency' (1987). First edition. 8vo. 247pp. Blue boards lettered and bordered in gold at the spine. A trace of light toning to the leaf margins (much less so that it usually found - this being a fault which so often blights this production). A virtually fine copy virtually fine non-price-clipped dust wrapper. Rewritten from a 'Dr. Who' episode entitled 'Shada', penned by Adams in 1979 as the season finale, but only ever partly filmed and unaired as a result of industry strike action, hence the time travel aspect of the plot (sorry for the spoiler!). 'The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul' (1988). First edition. 8vo. 246pp. Grey boards lettered in gold at the spine. A small bump to the tips of two corners, and some tanning to the leaf margins, as is invariably the case. A very good copy in price-clipped and very slightly rubbed dust wrapper. Very nice copies of Adams' first two Dirk Gently novels (the first eleven chapters of an uncompleted third volme Adams was working on at the time of his death was published posthumously in the collection 'The Salmon of Doubt').. Book. Book Condition: Very Good. Binding: Hardcover. Jacket: Very Good
