A first edition, first printing of The Moor’s Last Sigh by Salman Rushdie, published by Jonathan Cape, London in 1995. A very good plus copy, signed by the author on the title page, free from internal inscriptions or marks, with light, even toning to the text block and a firm, square binding. In a very good plus unclipped dust wrapper, showing light handling wear only, with no tears or loss and colours remaining strong.
The Moor’s Last Sigh is Rushdie’s fifth novel, a richly layered family saga and political allegory spanning India, Spain, and the legacy of cultural collision. Often regarded as one of his most ambitious post-Midnight’s Children works, it blends magical realism with historical and artistic themes, marking a mature phase in Rushdie’s literary career.
