About This Item
Stated First Edition.
Book is in Good- condition, with torn areas on cover boards (looks like marks from taping the dust jacket to the cover and then removing, dust jacket shows no injury, so may have been in a protector at the time of the taping/tearing). Area of tearing and adhesive residue on front endpaper, may have been a bookplate being removed. Binding between other listed works and title page starting to weaken. Half-title page has bit of soiling on bottom edge corner. Text pages are secure, mostly clean, couple light smudges throughout.
Dust jacket is in Good condition, with bit of edgewear, mostly at corners and top of spine.
Synopsis
The Exorcist is a horror novel written by William Peter Blatty. It is based on a 1949 exorcism Blatty heard about while he was a student in the class of 1950 at Georgetown University, a Jesuit and Catholic school. The exorcism was purportedly performed in Mount Rainier, Maryland.
Reviews
Great book. Captures the very essence of the movie and gives more to the reader. One of the best horror stories written all time.
