Edition originale
Cloth. Etat : Good. No Jacket. First Edition. This was Conrad's last novel. Posthumously published and unfinished it was issued only a few months after the great, Polish author's death at 66 years of age, August 1966. Conrad can be likened to writers such as Samuel Beckett and Vladimir Nabokov. if only for their choice of language. Nabokov was a Russian author who for the 2nd half of his writing career began writing in English instead of his native language. In similar fashion Beckett quite early in his career ceased writing in his native English, and began to write all his literary works in the language of his adopted home of France. Conrad chose to write his literary works in English despite the fact he did not speak English well. Nabokov, never a fan of the famous Polish novelist once wrote, and I paraphrase, that he differed from Joseph Conradically. This is the first British Trade edition of Suspense. Burgundy cloth with stamped and color washed black letterng on spine and blind stamped emblem centered on front panel. The spine is leaning. Mild wear. Tanning and previous owner's name inked front free end page. Foxing & dust staining to textblock edges, as well as black topstain. (303 pages plus four pages of advertisements for available titles from J.M. Dent & Sons by W.H. Hudson.).

Livre Edition originale
Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. First Edition. A true first edition, published posthumously in 1926, two years after the author's death, in the original dustwrapper. With a frontispiece facsimile of the last manuscript leaf written from "Legends" by Conrad. ***Very good in green cloth-covered boards, with gilt titles to the spine, and an embossed monogram on the front board. The gilt has oxidised over time. The boards are clean and unmarked. Head and tail of spine just very slightly creased. Corners sharp. No bumps. Top of page block stained green by the publisher to match the boards. Page block edges slightly darkened but clean without any foxing. Internally also very good, with no inscriptions or annotations. Pages beautifully clean, without any of the usual foxing. No creases or tears. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. ***In a very good plain printed dustwrapper, priced by the publisher at 7s 6d net on the spine. The dustwrapper is largely complete, but there is a large chip at the top of the spine which has affected the titles. The dustwrapper has become quite brittle due to the paper stock used, and is prone to chipping and tears. The dustwrapper is also darkened overall, and especially on the spine. Very slight rubbing at the edges, with just a sliver of loss at the tail of the spine. No significant creasing, and the large inner flaps are clean and uncreased. ***253 pages. 200mm x 140mm. Contents: Geography and Some Explorers, The "Torrens": A Personal Tribute, Christmas Day at Sea, Ocean Travel, Outside Literature, Legends, The Unlighted Coast, The Dover Patrol, Memorandum on the Scheme for Fitting-Out a Sailing Ship, The Loss of the "Dalgonar", Travel, Stephen Crane, His War Book (A Preface to Stephen Crane's "The Red Badge of Courage"), John Galsworthy, A Glance at Two Books ("The Island Pharisees" by John Galsworthy and "Green Mansions" by W. H. Hudson), Preface to "The Shorter Tales of Joseph Conrad", Cookery (Preface to Jessie Conrad's "A Handbook of Cookery for a Small House"), The Future of Constantinople, The Congo Diary. ***'Most of these twenty essays were written after the publication of "Notes on Life and Letters", and they comprise all Conrad's important miscellaneous writings remaining unpublished or uncollected at the time of death.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'"Last Essays" is a volume of essays by Joseph Conrad, edited with an introduction by Richard Curle, and published posthumously in 1926.' (Wiki) ***A true first edition, in very nice clean condition - scarce to find in its original thin and fragile dustwrapper. Of interest to collectors of antiquarian and first edition Joseph Conrad titles. ***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.
