Alfred Bester - Tiger! Tiger! - 1967

Alfred Bester’s Tiger! Tiger!—originally published in 1956 and issued here in its sought-after 1967 Penguin edition—remains one of the defining works of mid-century science fiction. The novel follows Gully Foyle, an ordinary man transformed by trauma and obsession into one of the genre’s most complex anti-heroes. Bester blends psychological depth, social tension, telepathic evolution and the disruptive power of “jaunting” into a narrative that helped shape later generations of speculative fiction. This edition also features cover art by Alan Aldridge, whose distinctive and imaginative style became an influential part of 1960s visual culture. This Penguin edition is considered scarce, especially in collectible condition, as early printings appear only occasionally on the market and are increasingly sought after by readers of classic science fiction and admirers of period design. This item will be carefully packaged and shipped with a track-and-trace code.
