RAINE, Craig. History: The Home Movie.

London: Penguin, 1994.

8vo.; in black cloth with gilt titles on spine; with dust-jacket; jacket slightly rubbed and scratched. A very good copy.

First edition, first printing. Inscribed by Raine to Muldoon and wife: “for Paul + Jean, / love, Craig”.

This novel in verse took Raine 10 years to write. By focussing on the twisted fates of a Russian and an English family (the Pasternaks and the Raines) it documents the larger events happening in Europe between 1905 and 1984.
