A propos de cet article

First Edition ( 'First Published 1935', NAP). Stephen Spender takes on Henry James, Yeats, T.S. Eliot, D. H. Lawrence, Edward Upward, Franz Kafka, and Laurens van der Post. You can see the covers in the photos. They have held up quite nicely. There is partial rubbing of the color on a few of the letters on the front cover. On the spine the coloring of the letters is very faded but you can read the letters all the same. The covers are pretty clean, just a few small spots on the rear. The cover edges look very good, no rubbing. That's also the case with the cover corners. The spine ends look very good, the top one has a couple of tiny nicks. The top page edge is brown. It looks very good. The middle and bottom page edges have some very light tan spotting. The bottom page edge appears to be deckled or rough-cut, but the bottom edges are all smooth, a small number of them are a little shorter than most of the others. The book is square and the spine is straight. The binding is quite solid, no spaces between any of the facing pages, nicely tight covers, good junctures. An extremely thin bit of an outward crease on the front inside cover created what has the appearance of a scratch on the first few pages, nothing very significant. Scrolling through the pages I'm not finding any creasing. There is some very light tan spotting on the blank front end paper and half-title page. You will find an occasional small tan spot of foxing in the text, having migrated from the middle page edge. But the pages are very clean. There are no markings in the book. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. Stephen Spender on Henry James, Yeats, T. S. Eliot, D. H. Lawrence, Franz Kafka, Laurens van der Post and Edward Upward, among others. …

Description de la boutique

Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
