Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Edition. First UK edition, first impression. Some edge wear and chipping to top and bottom of classic Gollancz yellow jacket and spine, corners rubbed with small loss, some browning and discolouring to extremities. Not price clipped (21/-), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and almost square, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 192pp. In the far future, after human civilization has spread through the galaxy, communications begin to arrive in an apparently alien language. They appear to threaten invasion, but in order to counter the threat, the messages must first be understood. In 1967 Samuel R. Delany (b.1942), was young, gay, African American, and possibly the hippest person on the planet. He was to write more perfect books than 'Babel-17', but it is perhaps the most delightful, clever and sensual of his works. During an interstellar war one side develops a language 'Babel-17', that can be used as a weapon. Learning it turns one into an unwilling traitor as it alters perception and thought (the Sapir-Worff hypothesis). The change is made more dangerous by the language's seductive enhancement of other abilities. This is discovered by the beautiful starship captain, linguist, poet, and telepath Rydra Wong. She is recruited by her government to discover how the enemy are infiltrating and sabotaging strategic sites. Initially Babel-17 is thought to be a code used by enemy agents. Rydra Wong realizes it is a language in and of itself, and furthermore that during her journey the she has a traitor on the ship. Rydra later finds that she herself is becoming the traitor as she learns more about Babel-17. She is rescued, however, by her dedicated crew, figures out the danger, and neutralizes its effects. The novel deals with several issues related to the peculiarities of language, how conditions of life shape the formation of words and meaning, and how words themselves can shape the actions of people. Joint winner of the Nebula Award for best novel 1966. A very scarce book in this first UK impression.…
