Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. First Edition & Third Impression. The dustjacket retains price. Little creasing to edges. Red cloth boards with gold gilt lettering in a beautiful clean condition. Pages all clean and tightly bound. - Collector's Note: This is a particularly special and uncommon copy…of A Partisan's Daughter by Louis de Bernières, featuring two handwritten inscriptions by the author himself. - On the full title page, de Bernières has signed and inscribed: "For Steve, Happy Birthday! Louis de Bernières" - Affixed to the front blank endpaper is a small KPMG-branded Post-it note, bearing a further message in the same hand: "I hope it's good - apparently it hasn't come out in the shops yet - it's a Portsmouth Festivities exclusive! xxx" - The mention of "Porbmonth" — now clearly a misread of Portsmouth — links this copy to the Portsmouth Festivities, a long-standing UK cultural and literary event. This suggests the book was a festival-exclusive pre-release, possibly handed out or signed during an author appearance before it became publicly available. The use of a branded Post-it note from KPMG (bearing the slogan "Make the best choice for you" and their careers web address) adds a playful layer of everyday authenticity — a real-world, off-the-cuff personal note from the author to a recipient named Steve. It reads as spontaneous and informal, making it feel all the more genuine and endearing. - Together, these inscriptions make this copy not only signed and inscribed, but also documented as part of a pre-publication release, tied directly to a literary festival. The dual inscriptions — one celebratory, one personal and contextual — offer a rare glimpse into the author's outreach and informal warmth. - An outstanding copy for collectors of modern British literature, author-signed first editions, or anyone with an eye for literary history wrapped in personal charm. - END - Professionally packaged and dispatched with care. Inscribed by Author(s).
