Autograph dedication signed by the author in blue ink: ‘For my big Zob! Jean Genet, Casablanca 1966’.
Dated in Casablanca, where Genet stayed regularly, this dedication reflects the free-spirited tone and deliberately provocative slang for which his readers know him. The recipient has not, to date, been identified.
The dust jacket is slightly scuffed.
