BOULLE, PIERRE (TRANSLATED FROM THE FRENCH BY XAN FIELDING)

Planet of the Apes

New York, NY: Signet, 1963. 2nd Printing. Paperback. Mass Market PB. This is a mass market paperback book. The book is in Very Good condition and was issued without a dust jacket. The white covers have some very light generalized toning, and there is some light rubbing and edge wear to the covers. The text pages are clean and bright, though they have generalized light toning. "Pierre François Marie Louis Boulle (20 February 1912 – 30 January 1994) was a French author. He is best known for two works, The Bridge over the River Kwai (1952) and Planet of the Apes (1963) , that were both made into award-winning films. Boulle was an engineer serving as a secret agent with the Free French in Singapore, when he was captured and subjected to two years' forced labour. He used these experiences in The Bridge over the River Kwai, about the notorious Death Railway, which became an international bestseller. The film, named The Bridge on the River Kwai, by David Lean won seven Oscars, and Boulle was credited with writing the screenplay, because its two actual screenwriters had been blacklisted." (from Wikipedia). Very Good .
