    The essay is unsigned on page 7. Novel title on page 9, novel starts on the first numbered page, 11. Gloss cover. Macmillan are acknowledged on the contents page here, whereas they hadn't been on the 1991, 1st printing. Unfortunately, changing the date from 1988 to 1991 was overlooked. Pan became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Macmillan in 1987. For cover identification purposes, note that there are two slightly different versions to accommodate the pb/tp size difference; the text is moved relative, most noticeably, to the star background.
