ISBN10: 0246639873, ISBN13: 9780246639875, [publisher: The Literary Guild / Rupert Hart-Davis Ltdt, London] Hardcover First published in the UK by Rupert Hart-Davis in 1970, this is a first Book Club edition, also of 1970. Ex library with usual defects and library mess. Edge wear and chipping to top and bottom of considerably worn jacket and spine, corners rubbed and bruised, pronounced lean, jacket relaminated, old tape marks to endpapers, overall creasing and time staining, some nasty scrapes to bottom front jacket, some yellowing and spotting to page block, not price clipped (no price), no personal inscriptions, internally cleanish and tight, overall a poor copy. 566pp, map endpapers. The story of the indomitable Henri Charriere (1906-73), a smalltime gangster transported to Devil's Island off French Guiana for a murder he did not commit, made into a film starring Steve McQueen. While Charrriere claimed that 'Papillon' was largely true, modern researchers believe that much of the book's material came from other inmates, rather than Charriere himself. Charriere denied committing the murder, although he freely admitted to having committed various other petty crimes prior to his incarceration. Now a scarce book, even in this Book Club edition.

ISBN10: 0246639873, ISBN13: 9780246639875, [publisher: Rupert Hart-Davis] Hardcover First Edition Papillon. Hardback (1970) first translated edition. By Charriere, Henri. Hardcover, good condition, name blacked out, ends tanned, dust jacket clipped, shelf/edge wear. ISBN 9780246639875 / 0246639873. Publisher: Rupert Hart-Davis , 1970. An immediate sensation upon its publication in 1969, Papillon is a vivid memoir of brutal penal colonies, daring prison breaks and heroic adventure on shark-infested seas. Condemned for a murder he did not commit, Henri Charriere, nicknamed Papillon, was sent to the penal colony of French Guiana. Forty-two days after his arrival he made his first break for freedom, travelling a thousand gruelling miles in an open boat. He was recaptured and put into solitary confinement but his spirit remained untamed: over thirteen years he made nine incredible escapes, including from the notorious penal colony on Devil's Island.
