First American edition. Near fine in a soiled, good only dust jacket with several shallow chips and a longish tear on the rear panel. Durrell's second novel emerged from his early years living on Corfu with his wife Nancy, though he disguised the location as the fictional island of Mavrodaphne. The publisher suggested the pseudonym after his autobiographical debut had flopped commercially. Written shortly after Durrell discovered Henry Miller's Tropic of Cancer and began their famous literary friendship, the book experiments with modernist techniques by shifting between multiple expatriate characters, each chapter told in a distinct narrative voice. The novel depicts a community of British and Russian exiles living collaboratively outside conventional society during the period of mounting European political turmoil.
