The Butterfly Plague by Timothy Findley 1969 1st edition with signed insert

A great star is planning a stunning comeback, while another is bent on self-destruction. And, as dark clouds hang ominously over Europe, hordes of Monarch butterflies swarm beautifully but menacingly over Hollywood. Against a colourful backdrop of butterflies and beaches, Timothy Findley skillfully phases reality into nightmare, exploring mothers' relationships to sons, women's relationships to men, beauty's relationship to evil. Blending biting humour with brilliant perceptions of the levels of despair. Dust jacket is in near fine condition and is in a plastic protective sleeve.

Mustard and red cloth boards with black titles to spine are in very good condition with some light wear. Internal pages are clean and unmarked. Insert signed by Timothy Findley as per photo is included.
