Nine and a Half Weeks

Nine and a Half Weeks: A Memoir of a Love Affair, was published in 1978 under the pseudonym Elizabeth McNeill. Though the writer and journalist Ingebourg Day was outed as its author in 1983, she never publicly acknowledged the fact. Over its brief 131 pages, Nine and a Half Weeks uses a detached but poetic style to chronicle an increasingly intense sadomasochistic affair.

Published in 1978 by Henry Robbins / E.P Dutton. First edition, hardback, in good condition with some smudges to pages. Black cloth binding with red foil lettering. White dust jacket with small tear near the top of the spine, repaired with sellotape.
