Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Hardcover. LIMITED EDITION. Number 291 of 500 copies signed by the author and the illustrator. George Moore (1852-1933) was a Roman Catholic Irish writer, art critic, and dramatist. As a naturalistic writer, he was amongst the first English-language authors to follow the style of the French realists. He is considered by some to be the first great modern Irish novelist, and his works supposedly influenced James Joyce. The Brook Kerith was one of his later novels, initially published in 1916. It was controversial both because it its writing style, which rejected the Victorian style and included long unindented paragraphs, no quotation marks, and long sections on minor observations; as well as its subject, which was that Jesus did not die on the cross.
