Sobre este item
London: Leonard & Virginia Woolf at the Hogarth Press, 1932. First edition, 1932. Great association copy with a handwritten inscription by Lady Ottoline Morrell to her half-brother, William Arthur, Sixth Duke of Portland, with his armorial bookplate inside the front cover. Lady Ottoline was a great patron of literature and frequently hosted the Bloomsbury group, including Virginia Woolf, and developed a stormy relationship with her. In her memoirs, Lady Ottoline said: "She seemed to feel certain of her own eminence. It is true, but it is rather crushing, for I feel she is very contemptuous of other people. When I stretched out a hand to feel another woman, I found only a very lovely, clear intellect." Green cloth with gilt spine lettering, no dustjacket. Some modest shelfwear, good hinges, sound text block, clean pages. The inscription on the front free endpaper reads: "From Ottoline to my loved Brother" dated Dec 28 1932 (looks like 1922 but that is before the book was published). Below the bookplate is a bookseller ticket from London.. Association Copy. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
