Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. A Signed Modernist Masterpiece. Immerse yourself in the emotionally charged landscape of the French Riviera with this exquisite edition of Kay Boyle's Year Before Last. Originally published in 1932, this volume was reissued as part of the prestigious Crosscurrents/Modern F…iction series edited by Harry T. Moore. Boyle, a crucial figure of the "Lost Generation" in Paris, delivers a semi-autographical, luminous narrative exploring the complexities of love, art, and illness. Authentic Signature: Personally signed by the author, Kay Boyle, on the title page. Signed copies of her mid-century uniform editions are highly prized by collectors of modernism. The Critique: Features a vital textual analysis and introduction, making this the definitive edition for scholars studying expatriate avant-garde literature. Condition: Dust Jacket: Present and vibrant. Shows some light chipping and shelf wear along the extremities, but remains whole and striking. Binding: Bound in nice blue cloth boards that have been well-protected by the jacket. Spine and boards are firm, though the corners are lightly bumped and edges are lightly rubbed. Interior: The text block is completely clean and tightly bound. There is some light, natural foxing along the page edges, adding an authentic vintage patina. A remarkable presentation copy of a modernist classic, bridging the gap between historical romance and the stark realities of the interwar avant-garde. Signed by Author(s).

Works by Kay Boyle, Charles Bukoswki, Stephen Spender, Tal-Coat, Dorothea Tanning, Hans Richter. Poet and publisher. She was born Mary Phelps Jacob, later became Polly Peabody, and finally Caresse C…rosby. She received a patent for a design for the first modern brassiere which gained wide acceptance. Along with her second husband, Harry Crosby, and after his suicide, on her own, she published and promoted many of the early modernist writers. Their Black Sun Press produced works by D.H. Lawrence, Kay Boyle, Ezra Pound, James Joyce, Hart Crane, among others. She was born in New Rochelle, New York into a prominent New England family. She was the first to design and patent an undergarment named 'Brassiere,' derived from the old French word for 'upper arm'. On November 3, 1914, the U.S. Patent Office issued a patent for the 'Backless Brassiere'. In 1915, at age 24, she married Richard Rogers Peabody. They had two children and divorced. On September 9, 1922, at age 28, she married Harry Grew Crosby.In 1937, at age 47, she married Selbert Young, a football player nearly twenty years her junior. She opened an art gallery in Washington D.C. and started Portfolio, a magazine about art and literature. She also was politically active and founded the organization Women Against War. In 1950, Caresse divorced Selbert Young and moved to Rocca Sinibalda, Italy, where she planned to create an artist's colony. She published an autobiography in 1953 called The Passionate Years. In the last years of her life, she tried to build a world citizen center that would bring together political leaders and the artistic community in Greece and then in Cyprus. Frustrated by political obstacles, she died in Rome of heart failure in 1970 at age 79, before its completion.
