A propos de cet article

Hamish Hamilton, London, 1956. First British edition, presumed first impression. Hardcover with original yellow illustrated dust jacket. Illustrated throughout by the author. *Further Fables for Our Time* by James Thurber. A collection of 47 humorous and satirical fables by the celebrated American writer and cartoonist James Thurber, best known for his work in The New Yorker and his distinctive comic illustrations. Combining talking animals, absurd situations and sharp observations of human behaviour, Thurber's fables offer a witty and often wonderfully cynical perspective on modern life. The collection is accompanied by his unmistakable black-and-white line drawings. This 1956 British edition was published by Hamish Hamilton and retains its striking original yellow dust jacket, decorated with Thurber's illustrations of animals, birds and insects. **Condition: Good to Very Good book / Good dust jacket (provisional).** Photographed title and publication pages appear clean and readable, with light age-related toning. Original illustrated dust jacket remains bright and attractive on the front, with minor rubbing, edge wear and slight creasing. Rear jacket panel shows noticeable age-related spotting and foxing, particularly across the upper portion, together with light handling marks and edge wear. Cloth boards, binding firmness and completeness of contents have not yet been fully inspected. Please see photographs. An appealing vintage edition for collectors of James Thurber, American humour, literary satire, illustrated fiction and New Yorker cartoonists.…
