London: Faber and Faber Limited, 1966.
First edition of the third collection of Durrell’s ‘Antrobus’ comedic short stories. Octavo, original pink cloth, illustrations by Nicolas Bentley. Near fine in a good dust jacket with a small segment clipped from the front panel of the dust jacket.
These zany tales of diplomatic life, originally published in newspapers and magazines, are a fine example of Durrell's lyrical prose. Following 'Esprit de Corps' and 'Stiff Upper Lip,' 'Sauve Qui Peut' features beloved diplomat Antrobus with a few new characters as they tangle with crises in the English capital.
