Hothouse

The Long Afternoon of Earth is an abridgement, not a reprint of the Faber text, and should never be catalogued as a later printing of Hothouse; US paperbacks reprinting that abridged text through the 1960s and 1970s are reprints of the abridgement. Conversely, US editions from 1976 onward carrying the full text under either title are 'first thus'. No book-club issue of the Faber first was documented in the sources consulted.
