𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Hardcover with dust jacket. Dust jacket shows heavy wear: multiple tears, chipping/losses along edges and corners, significant creasing, and overall rubbing/soiling visible in the photos. Book itself presents better than the jacket: boards appear solid and the binding looks intact. Interior pages appear clean overall. Includes an owner bookplate (“Robert Cook”) on the front pastedown (provenance), and a laid-in vintage bookstore bookmark (“Smitty’s Book & Co., Spokane, Washington”) as shown. No author signature observed.

𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: A classic dystopian science fiction novel centered on environmental collapse and social breakdown, told through interwoven narrative threads and documentary-style inserts. Brunner builds a near-future world where pollution, corporate power, and public apathy collide, escalating into wide-reaching consequences that feel uncomfortably plausible. A key title for collectors of 1970s speculative fiction and eco-dystopian literature, offered here with the dust jacket present (though worn) and clear signs of prior ownership/provenance.
