Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Rex Whistler (bookplate by) (illustrator). First Edition. 1927. First edition. 270pp. Forrest Reid (1875-1947) was a Northern Irish novelist, literary critic and translator. He has been acclaimed as the greatest of Ulster novelists and was recognised with the award of the 1944 James Tait Black Memorial Prize for his novel Young Tom. In the present work, he weaves history and fiction together. The narrative follows Demophon, a captivating traveller, as he embarks on an odyssey through time and across cultures. As Demophon encounters a cast of engaging and diverse characters, the tapestry of the human experience is unveiled. From tales of love and loss to moments of triumph and tragedy, the novel paints a portrait of humanity's shared journey through time, blurring the lines between reality and myth. The book is bound in the original brown buckram cloth covered boards with gold titling on the spine. The case of the book is in very good condition with some shelf wear to the boards, light bumping to the top of the spine and slightly heavier bumping to the bottom of the spine. There is a small dent on the top spine corner of the front board. The contents are tight and clean with foxing to the fore edge of the text block, and on a few pages the foxing has seeped a little way into the fore margin. The endpapers also have some foxing, mostly around the edges, and there is some staining with a little loss at the top and bottom spine corners of the front and rear endpapers, possibly where some sort of repair has been carried out. The front fixed endpaper has a Rex Whistler designed bookplate.

There has been a recent resurgence of interest in Mona Inglesby and her International Ballet (1942-1951). In 2008 Kay Hunter published a study of the troupe, titled 'Ballet in the Blitz'; then in 2012 BBC Radio 4 aired a documentary about Mona Inglesby and International Ballet, titled 'Black-Out Ballet: The Invisible Woman of British Ballet'. The writer of the documentary, Ismene Brown, gave the following explanation of her motives: 'In 2006 an elderly dancer died in Bexhill-on-Sea, Sussex. She was 88, and had once been one of Britain's most recognised ballerinas. Why did she die in obscurity? Why is the great ballet company that she ran now a forgotten name? This was what I set out to explore in a BBC Radio 4 documentary which aired yesterday. Inglesby's story has the improbability of an epic. As a very young woman she defied wartime conditions to launch a major ballet company, which introduced the British public en masse to grand ballet. She was also nothing less than the saviour of the most precious texts in all classical ballet. A mounting sense of injustice caused the last remaining dancers of her company, now in their eighties and nineties, to try to get some amends for Inglesby before they too were gone.' The scenery and costume designs of International Ballet are at Harvard. The present item is on one side of a 12mo piece of paper. It is in good condition, lightly aged and spotted. Half way down the page, slightly to the right of centre, is the large firm signature in red ink of 'Mona Inglesby | 1942.' Arranged above and below this, in two loose columns, and in a variety of different-oloured inks, are the other 23 signatures: 'Thelma Fabian | Anne Negus | Joan Harris [later ballet director for The Norwegian National Opera and Ballet, and founder and first director of The Norwegian National Ballet School] | Anglela Bayley | Ward. | Harold Turner. | Nina Tarakanova [(c.1911-1994; Russian, see obituary, Independent, 16 June 1994)] | Joyce Graeme.
