Own a beautifully preserved copy of Hemingway’s post-WWI masterpiece, Fiesta, in the original UK title by Jonathan Cape. This mid-1950's re-issue remains in near-fine condition: the cloth binding is fresh, the text block clean, and the endpapers bright. If your copy includes a crisp dust-jacket, that could justify a slightly higher price—please review and grade accordingly.
While true first editions (1927) command very high value, this re-issue offers a wonderful blend of affordability and classic appeal. It’s perfect for reading, displaying, or gifting to Hemingway admirers.
