Description: An early edition of this experimental novel by Virginia Woolf, one of her most puzzling publications. The first Uniform Edition of this work, also described by Kirkpatrick as the third impression of the first edition; 'although works in the Uniform Edition are described as a 'New Edition' to the verso of the title page, they are in fact reprints of the first edition'. Kirkpatrick A16c.One of the experimental novels of Virginia Woolf, following six narrators from childhood to adulthood through a series of soliloquies, ruminating on the concepts of individuality, self, and community.Readers can see some of Woolf's friends in her characters in this novel; in particular E. M. Forster in the writer Bernard, T. S. Eliot in the outsider Louis, Lytton Strachey in Neville, Mary Hutchinson in the socialite Jinny, Vanessa Bell, in the fleeing Susan, and Thoby Stephen in the flawed and never narrator Percival.Written by the Bloomsbury author Virginia Woolf, a central figure of the literary group, herself known for her experimental writings and affair with fellow author Vita Sackville-West.Published by the Hogarth Press, the Bloomsbury publishing house founded ran by Leonard and Virginia Woolf. The press was founded in the interwar period, as printing became a hobby for the couple, diverting Virginia when her writing became too stressful. Both Woolfs' taught themselves to use a printing press, publishing 527 titles from the period of 1917 to 1946. In the original publisher's cloth binding. Externally, smart. Very light bumping to the head and tail of the spine and to the extremities. A few light marks to the boards. Gift inscription to the recto of the front endpaper. Internally, firmly bound.

Woolf's brilliant biography of a dog; not just any dog, but the poet Mrs. Elizabeth Barrett Browning's Spaniel Flush. Flush not only played an active part in human life and inspired poetry, but was himself a dog estimated by all who knew him as a dog of worth and character well deserving celebration. "FLUSH is only by way of a joke. I was so tired after THE WAVES, that I lay in the garden and read the Browning letters, and the figure of their dog made me laugh so I couldn't resist making him a Life. I wanted to play a joke on Lytton [Strachey] -- it was to parody him. But then it grew too long, and I dont think its up to much now. But this is all very egotistical." -- WOOLF, Vol. V. p.161-2.

Description: The International Psycho-Analytical Library Edited by Ernest Jones. No. 24. Authorized Translation by W. J. H. Sprott. First English Edition. 8vo. [222 x 144 x 30 mm]. Bound in publisher's green cloth, lettered in gilt to the spine. (Some marks to cloth and spotting to edges and endleaves.) With owner's monogram on front free endpaper. In 1924 Leonard Woolf paid £800 for the existing stock of the British Psychoanalytical Society's library and the Hogarth Press became their official English publishers. It was a huge financial risk and Virginia was "less sanguine than Leonard about the project. She wrote to Roger Fry that she was alarmed at the Press 'having laid out £800 in the works of Freud.' The stock arrived in July 1924 and was 'dumped in a fortress the size of Windsor castle in ruins upon the floor' in the basement at Tavistock Square." (Julia Briggs, Canvas Issue 18).

Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Flush: A Biography, an imaginative biography of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's cocker spaniel, is a cross-genre blend of fiction and nonfiction by Virginia Woolf published in 1933. Written after the completion of her emotionally draining The Waves, the work returned Woolf to the imaginative consideration of English history that she had begun in Orlando: A Biography, and to which she would return in Between the Acts. Commonly read as a modernist consideration of city life seen through the eyes of a dog, Flush serves as a harsh criticism of the supposedly unnatural ways of living in the city. The figure of Elizabeth Barrett Browning in the text is often read as an analogue for other female intellectuals, like Woolf herself, who suffered from illness, feigned or real, as a part of their status as female writers. Most insightful and experimental are Woolfs emotional and philosophical views verbalized in Flushs thoughts. As he spends more time with Barrett Browning, Flush becomes emotionally and spiritually connected to the poetess and both begin to understand each other despite their language barriers. For Flush smell is poetry, but for Barrett Browning, poetry is impossible without words. In Flush Woolf examines the barriers that exist between woman and animal created by language yet overcome through symbolic actions. EB; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 185 pages

Overall, a very pleasing copy. Kirkpatrick A19a. Woolmer 334. Flush is the fictional biography of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's cocker spaniel. While reading Elizabeth Barrett's love letters with Robert Browning, Woolf was inspired by the descriptions of the cocker spaniel, Flush, who kept the poet company while she was ill and was ever-present throughout the development of Browning and Barrett's relationship. Woolf, who had long had an affinity for animals and pets, decided to create a fictional story about the dog's life from his youth in the country to his adoption by Barrett and his subsequent life in the city. Although it is a topically lighthearted tale, Woolf uses Flush as a basis for social commentary, specifically about urban living and feminism.

Description: First edition of Sackville-West's collected poems including "The Land" and "Sissinghurst" (which was dedicated to Virginia Woolf), as well as 28 new poems published here for the first time. Octavo, complete in one volume (Volume I was the only volume published). Signed by the author on the front free endpaper. From the library of Erica Jong. Jong remains best known for her 1973 novel Fear of Flying which became famously controversial for its portrayal of female sexuality and figured prominently in the development of second-wave feminism. Written in the first person and narrated by its protagonist, 29-year-old American poet Isadora Wing, Fear of Flying was written in the throes of the Sexual Revolution of the 1970s and encapsulated the movementâs redefinition of female sexuality. In interviews, Jong stated: âAt the time I wrote Fear of Flying, there was not a book that said women are romantic, women are intellectual, women are sexualâ"and brought all those things together⦠What [Isadora is] looking for is how to be a whole human being, a body and a mind, and that is what women were newly aware they needed in 1973.â The novel remains a feminist classic and has sold more than 20 million copies worldwide. In very good condition. Victoria Mary Sackville-West, Lady Nicolson, CH (9 March 1892 2 June 1962), usually known as Vita Sackville-West, was an English author and garden designer. She won the Hawthornden Prize in 1927. She won it a second time, becoming the only writer to do so, in 1933 with her Collected Poems.

Woolf, Virginia. Flush: A Biography.. The Hogarth Press, New York, 1933.
Price: US$2800.00 + shipping
Description: First edition of Woolf's fictional "stream of consciousness" tale by Flush, a dog, telling the story of his owner, Elizabeth Browning. Octavo, original cloth, patterned endpapers by Vanessa Bell, with four original drawings by Vanessa Bell and six other illustrations. Boldly signed by Virginia Woolf on the second free endpaper. Very good with laminate to the cloth in a very good supplied dust jacket. One of the most important modernist 20th century authors, British novelist Virginia Woolf became a pioneer in the use of stream of consciousness as a narrative device. Woolf became one of the central subjects of the 1970s movement of feminist criticism, and her works have since garnered much attention and widespread commentary for "inspiring feminism", an aspect of her writing that was unheralded earlier. Woolf's best known works include Mrs. Dalloway (1925), To the Lighthouse (1927), The Waves (1931).
