First edition of du Maurier’s classic work, adapted into the 1959 film of the same name starring Sir Alec Guinness. Octavo, bound in full morocco to mimic a gentleman’s coat with five buttons. In near fine condition.
The Scapegoat concerns an Englishman who meets his double, a French aristocrat, while visiting France, and is forced into changing places with him. The Englishman is a single, rather lonely academic, and finds himself caught up in all the intrigues and passions of his double's complex family.
