Description

The Big Smoke
by D’Arcy Niland.

Angus and Robertson, Sydney, 1959.
First Edition hardback.

‘D’Arcy Niland brilliantly catches the atmosphere, the essential character, of this tough, lusty city which is Sydney; and, in racy narrative that never falters, he shows the pathos and poetry of the intermingled lives that are its essence.’

Condition: Fair. Edgewear on dust cover and several small tears. Discolouration on dust cover and interior pages. Writing in pen on title page.
