Condition: Near Fine
Description: First American Edition of Lawrence's second book; sheets comprised from the Duckworth English edition with a cancel title page. *****Book is a bit dusty but sound and appearing virtually unread, Near Fine. The scarce dust jacket has been price-clipped at the spine and the top of the front cover(original price of $1.25), a small chip at the spine foot, some tape repairs on the verso, miscellaneous wear, else Very Good. Withal, the jacket maintains its charisma.******At an edition of 600 copies, one of Lawrence's scarcest titles. Only a handful of copies with the jacket have appeared at auction in the last 50 years and those results include one reappearing copy. If you collect English literature or Modernism in general, this is a scarcity worthy of a place on the shelf. ***** Upon reexamination, The Trespasser emerges as a work of quite remarkable interest. It is more than a swatch of early Lawrence. It unmistakably reveals where The Rainbow and Women in Love come from, and though it is certainly a compendium of all his faults, it is also a coherent assemblage of nearly all his virtues. Nor are they neatly balanced against one another. They are instead strewn every which way over the whole landscape of the book. But at various points they give off that fierce blaze which was Lawrence s signature. (Gurko)***Please click on "ask seller a question" to contact us for better pricing!***
