A Girl is a Half-Formed Thing
by Eimear McBride


Published: Galley Beggar Press, 2013

Fine paperback original. NB, there is some debate about the true first printing status of the title. This is probably a second printing (although not identified as such) as the first printing was a very short run of 1000 copies, habitually the case with this small publisher. Winner of the inaugural Goldsmiths Prize, shortlisted for the Folio Prize and winner of the Desmond Elliott Prize and Bailey's Prize. Shaping up to be one of the most important books of its time. Signed and dated by the author.

Price: £175.00

Winner of the inaugural Goldsmiths Prize, shortlisted for the Folio Prize and winner of the Desmond Elliott and Bailey's Prize. Shaping up to be one of the most important books of its time. Signed by the author.
