Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. A charming vintage Modern Library hardcover edition of Max Beerbohm's satirical novel, Zuleika Dobson, originally published in 1911. This edition features the Kent-style torchbearer endpapers, characteristic of ML printings from the 1930s1940s. Bound in maroon cloth with gilt titles and the Modern Library logo blindstamped on the front board. The story, often hailed as a classic of comic literature, follows the enchanting Zuleika and her profound effect on the men of Oxford. With its dry wit and social critique, Zuleika Dobson remains a unique gem in Edwardian fiction. Book is in Very Good condition: clean, tight binding, slight edge wear, light pencil notes on the half-title. No dust jacket.
