The spine of my copy of ATD is bound in red (or reddish) buckram.  On all other copies I have seen, the spine is bound in light green. At times publishers will change the binding because of a revision in the text requiring that change. But I have, as yet, found no such revision. Unless, of course, the two states of the binding have something to do with the pervasive doubling in the novel.

Spine binding red and green

The spine of my copy of ATD is bound in red (or reddish) buckram. On all other copies I have seen, the spine is bound in light green. At times publishers will change the binding because of a revision in the text requiring that change. But I have, as yet, found no such revision. Unless, of course, the two states of the binding have something to do with the pervasive doubling in the novel.
