The Porcupine

Julian Barnes · Jonathan Cape (London) · 1992

The English-language first edition is the UK Cape (1992); a US Alfred A. Knopf edition followed in 1992. A Bulgarian translation (Bodlivo svinche, Obsidian, Sofia) appeared in 1992 before the English text, so the English-language first remains the Cape printing.
