bookshop edition
Signed and numbered bookplate
'I love Salena Godden and I love Mrs Death Misses Death. Salena, like the lead character, is a force to be reckoned with. If the page were a stage, Mrs Death is its star.

The Death of Francis Bacon
Max Porter
Hardback £6.99
Published January 21
Fiction
Signed first edition
This is my attempt to write as painting, not about it; an attempt to replicate thought, struggle, the struggle of thought, but also the sheer energy of the eye’s confrontation with the painted image. It’s the result of a long preoccupation I’ve had with Francis Bacon and I hope that, even though it is a book about death, it’s very much a living thing.’
Max Porter
