Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Thus. First thus - issued in the World's Classics series - No. 587. First printing of this edition, with a new introduction by Bonamy Dobrée, and dustwrapper illustration by Mervyn Peake. ***Very good in navy-blue cloth-covered boards, with a blind-stamped…OUP crest on the front board and gilt titles to the spine. The boards are fox marked but otherwise clean and undamaged. No bumps or tears to the cloth. Corners sharp. Page block edges slightly darkened and foxed. Internally also very good with no inscriptions or annotations. Pages clean. Printed on very thin India paper with some lower corner creasing to pp.237-256 but no tears. Spine tight. ***In a very good dustwrapper, with front panel illustration by Mervyn Peake. The dustwrapper has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of 7s. 6d. net.

Dustwrapper bright. ***394 pages including a seven page Introduction and a Note on the Text at the front of the book. 153 mm x 98 mm. ***'"What makes her live", says Bonamy Dobrée in his introduction to this edition of "Moll Flanders" in The world's Classics, "is Defoe's amazing genius, of a high imaginative order, for entering into the very being of the persons whose biographies he pretends to write." "Moll Flanders", he claims, "is the fountainhead of the vast flood of what we have come to call novels. There had been nothing like it before." The text used here is that of the first edition which has hitherto been very difficult to obtain; Dr. Herbert Davis contributes a note on it.' [Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper] ***A first printing in this edition, with a new introduction by Bonamy Dobrée, complete in its original dustwrapper, with drawing designed by Mervyn Peake. A nice quality production of this famous work of English literature. ***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. Mervyn Peake [Jacket design] (illustrator).

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Hardcover. 8vo. Published by Southern Illinois University Press, Carbondale, Illinois, 1968. 268 pgs. First, thus. DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine and front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities…. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. The force and beauty of H. D. s prose brings the stories in Palimpsest brightly to life, particularly in her sense of place: Rome about 75 B. C. , post-World War I London and Egypt at the time of the Tutankhamon tomb excavations. The use of the palimpsest motif gives the reader the impression that one story has been superimposed on the other ad that the protagonist is always the same woman -in essence H. D. Herself. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall.
