Description: First edition hardcover copy of The Centauri Device, by M. John Harrison (Doubleday, 1974). Harrison's third novel, The Centauri Device is often described as an "anti-space opera." As is typical with Harrison's work, the book strives to undercut the traditional features of the genre, with a passive hero and a non-anthropocentric universe. This novel was hugely influential on later authors, since as Iain M. Banks, who said that Harrison "should be a megastar." This book is in fine condition, with an intact dust jacket. Some light soiling to the back cover, and one tear to the front endpaper. Otherwise no visible damage or wear.
