Paperback. Condition: Used; Good. A 1945 first edition of The Penguin New Writing 25. The first chapter titles 'Potatoes have hips of their own' begins: When something that has happened to a man goes on happening again and again in his mind, and is remembered and relieved for more than a year,m even for two ort three years after… it has happened, even for the space of a war, there is only one way to write of it. You must say that ist is happening now, that it is still in the present. For that is how it feels.The real present is not nearly so solid. Ad things come along you can stuff them into your pocket and forget them - months at sea in the Med, with sharp excitements and long boredoms, can be stuffed deep into your pocket, and two years in the Indian Ocean can go the same way; but something small that happened as long ago as 1940 in an air-raid shelter can be too big for you pocket, and you must carry it about with you continually in your hands. Title: The Penguin New Writing 25 Author: Edited By John Lehmann Publisher: Penguin Books Publication Date: 1945 - First Edition Format: Softcover Condition: This book is in good condition for its age other than some minor signs of wear. Sticker to front cover, damage to spine, tanned pages with age spots.

Original Wraps. Condition: Good. No Jacket, as Issued. First Edition. First impression of the true first edition. Some contributions were specially written for this issue of Penguin New Writing, and are the first publication in the UK, including Graham Greene's piece on re-visiting an unfinished novel in 'Across the Border'. Wit…h colour and photogravure illustrations, including work by Ceri Richards, Edward Burra, Keith Vaughan, Graham Sutherland et al. ***A good only reading copy in colour-illustrated thin card covers. The covers show some rubbing and creasing commensurate with age and handling, with a couple of deep creases to the front cover. Spine edges rubbed with some surface loss. No actual loss to the fragile spine covering. Paper stock lightly tanned as usual, with heavier tanning to the page block edges. Internally there is quite a lot of page creasing, and the paper has got wet at some stage, and some of the pages are wrinkled as a result (please see scans). No previous ownership inscriptions and no internal foxing. No tears. ***180mm x120mm. 192 pages. ***Contents: J. Maclaren-Ross: Monsieur Felix; Louis MacNeice: Street-Scene; Tom Hopkinson: Above the Snow-line; Donagh MacDonagh: Three Poems from the Irish; Graham Greene: Across the Border; Henry Reed: Antigone; A.C. Wann: Growing up in Chad Street; Norman Nicholson: Two Poems; Boris Pasternak: The Thrushes; Giles Romilly: Two Poems; John R. Townsend: Poem After Victory; R.C.M. Howard: The Voyage Back; Gillian Hughes: Calm Sea. ***The Critical View: Film Critic: Parade of Violence; V. S. Pritchett: Men of the World; John Lehmann: The Search for the Myth; From a Painter's Note-Book VI. ***The Living Moment: Stuart Hood: The Valley; Rollo Woolley: The Search; Sacha Carnegie: Snow. ***New Writing was a popular literary periodical in book format founded in 1936 by John Lehmann and committed to anti-fascism. During the Second World War, in 1940, with New Writing's future uncertain, John Lehmann wrote New Writing in Europe which was published by Penguin Books, a critical summary of the writers of the 1930s. ***Allen Lane of Penguin Books managed to secure paper for a new series which became Penguin New Writing, a monthly book-magazine, this time produced as a paperback. Penguin New Writing ran to 40 issues in total, surviving until 1950. ***First impression of the true first edition of John Lehmann's Penguin New Writing Issue 30, published in 1947. Of interest to collectors of collectable Penguin paperbacks. ***Please note the above-mentioned faults - a reading copy only. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Ceri Richards, Edward Burra, Keith Vaughan, Graham Sutherland et al (illustrator).
