I would have expected a man of your culture to have it hardcover, maybe even a first edition.
Alas, I was late to the game. I got my copy, and only 2 or 3 weeks later I went to order a copy for a friend, and it was out of stock. Haven’t checked back since.
Must have been a great friend.
Hell, for that matter. I was going to let him borrow it. But my wife vetoed the idea. She was like “you aren’t giving away our copy of metamorphosis.
I leave a copy in the spare room’s night table to spread the word of Shindo.
It’s just a paperback because the pages are always sticky and I have to replace it often.
Check it out the spine isn’t even creased.
Edit: that’s not actually the spine. That’s a dust jacket.
Or have it laminated
