First Edition
[First edition]. "Libretto by Patrick Terry after the Novel by W. Somerset Maugham. Music by John Gardner . Commisioned by the Sadler's Wells Trust Ltd." Original black yapped-edge light card wrappers printed in yellow; edges now fragile and torn owing to poor quality card , some portions reattached with archival tape though, but for one small corner and 1/4" x 1/2" piece at head of spine, all present. Pages lightly age-toned; clean and tight. A very good copy of this unusual libretto for a Maughamian opera, first performed May 24, 1957.
