HOW TO BE BOTH.
(London): Hamish Hamilton, (2014). First edition. Booker short-listed novel SIGNED AND DATED on title page prior to official publication date, “Ali Smith/ 17 August/ 2014.” This copy with camera icon (vs eye icon) at front and text beginning, "Consider this moral conundrum for a moment...." No known priority. The book was published simultaneously in two versions: one beginning with the story from the perspective of George, a 16-year-old girl living in contemporary Cambridge (camera icon); the other beginning with the story from the perspective of Francesco, an Italian renaissance artist in Ferrara, Italy (eye icon). Fine in fine dust jacket.
