A propos de cet article

First thus - issued in the World's Classics series - No. 587. First printing of this edition, with a new introduction by Bonamy Dobrée, and dustwrapper illustration by Mervyn Peake. ***Very good in navy-blue cloth-covered boards, with a blind-stamped OUP crest on the front board and gilt titles to the spine. The boards are fox marked but otherwise clean and undamaged. No bumps or tears to the cloth. Corners sharp. Page block edges slightly darkened and foxed. Internally also very good with no inscriptions or annotations. Pages clean. Printed on very thin India paper with some lower corner creasing to pp.237-256 but no tears. Spine tight. ***In a very good dustwrapper, with front panel illustration by Mervyn Peake. The dustwrapper has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of 7s. 6d. net. The dustwrapper is complete without any creasing or tears. There is some edge wear with very slight loss at the top of the spine and tips of foldovers. No fading. Dustwrapper bright. ***394 pages including a seven page Introduction and a Note on the Text at the front of the book. 153 mm x 98 mm. ***'"What makes her live", says Bonamy Dobrée in his introduction to this edition of "Moll Flanders" in The world's Classics, "is Defoe's amazing genius, of a high imaginative order, for entering into the very being of the persons whose biographies he pretends to write." "Moll Flanders", he claims, "is the fountainhead of the vast flood of what we have come to call novels. There had been nothing like it before." The text used here is that of the first edition which has hitherto been very difficult to obtain; Dr. Herbert Davis contributes a note on it.' [Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper] ***A first printing in this edition, with a new introduction by Bonamy Dobrée, complete in its original dustwrapper, with drawing designed by Mervyn Peake. A nice quality production of this famous work of English literature. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. …
