Red-spined AtD?

You wrote earlier that you got your copy from amazon.co.uk, so I suspect 
that your copy is simply the British first edition from Jonathan Cape, and 
not the American first edition from Penguin Press. I've also got a British 
edition, and it is indeed all black. It's quite normal for American and 
British first editions to look different. The bindings of British first 
editions tend to be one colour, whereas the backs of American hardcovers 
tend to be a different colour than the sides.
But in short: I suspect that you've simply got yourself a black British 
first edition, and you shouldn't worry about underlining all you want. If 
your copy IS a black American Penguin Press edition, though, I'd get myself 
an effective eraser if I were you....
