Brendan Behan, Confessions of an Irish Rebel

Hutchison, 1965.

I took this from the store to give to Jim O'Brien, who didn't seem interested. My interest in boozy Irishmen is limited--there's a picture of Behan in this volume in which both his face and his body seem separately about to explode. Allan priced at $15, which is at the bottom of the range. Between the Covers has a galley for $225, which seems, umm, eager. The only mar is a pencil or pen strike on the top page edges, so I'll see if we can sell this.
