Sobre este item
New York: Mitchell Kennerley, 1914. x, 93 pages. 12mo. First printing of the first edition of this play, that was Lawrence's fifth published book . Because this edition preceded the British edition, this is the true first edition. Both this play and an earlier short story, "Odour of Chrysanthemums," are transparently autobiographical and reflect Lawrence's attempts to mourn the death of his uncle . The book is in very good+ condition: clean and tight, with some rubbing of the color on edges of covers; a tiny rubbed spot on page 75 affects 2 letters in one word. The rare dustjacket, is, as expected, 4mm shorter than the book and has a printed "$1.25 net" price label covering the original $1.00 price on the spine. The jacket is in very good condition: lightly toned and has a reading crease along the spine (N in Lawrence and L in Holroyd on spine have tiny scrape where crease hits); very light soiling limited to the spine of the jacket. In all, an excellent copy of what may have been Lawrence's most successful effort as a playwright.. First Edition. Hardcover. Collectible-Very Good+/Very Good. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. Book.
