(Signed and Inscribed) John Fowles Shipwreck Signed and inscribed to ffep 'Dear Dick Larn, I remember, as a very green young second Lieutenant in the Royal Marines, getting into trouble with a sailing cutter in the Solent and having finally to come alongside a moored destroyer; and I haven't forgotten the look of gleeful contempt in the eyes of the officer on watch, who leant over to ask what the hell we thought we were doing. I do hope this doesn't produce a same look in your eyes; all I can offer to counter it is Rex's and my own very sincere gratitude for being allowed to moor alongside your own scholarship and hard work. We'd never have reached land without it....,' first edition, unclipped dj, Jonathan Cape, London, 1974.
