"The Parasites" by Daphne Du Maurier - Victor Gollancz, London - 1949 first UK edition first printing - 15cmx13cm - condition: good, in original blue binding, released in small amounts meant for libraries, in original dustwrapper with minor wear, with price stamp on spine

The Parasites is a novel by Daphne du Maurier, first published in 1949. The novel follows an emotionally entangled bohemian family, the Delaneys,[1] who lead complex and frequently scandalous lives, and their strange relationships with one another. The book explores both their childhood and adult life, creating a circle seemingly closed to all outsiders. The world in which they live is sophisticated, gay, and sometimes tragic.
