Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good+. Crisp, clean pages; no owners' marks; quarter cloth hard cover shows light shelfwear along bottom edges of boards and a bit of softening at spine ends; unclipped dust jacket bears thin lines of surface wear along foreedges, some small edge tears and creases, and a sh…ort reddish mark at the middle front, but remains overall remarkably well preserved and is now protected in a clear sleeve. 111pp. A midcentury reappraisal of urban life, loosely following Henry Mayhew's "London Labour and the London Poor", but with the irrepressible Searle and sardonic Atkinson making room for humor. Portions of this book originally ran in Punch.; Drawings. Illustrated by Searle, Ronald (illustrator).

Contact seller4-star sellerpaperback. Condition: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. First Edition. Middlesex. 1962. Penguin Books. 1st Penguin Paperback Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. Illustrated by Ronald Searle. 111 pages. paperback. 1856. Cover illustration by Ronald Searle. keywords: Europe England Literature London Humor World Literature. DESCRIPTION… - Henry Mayhew's famous survey, LONDON LABOUR AND THE LONDON POOR, painted a glaring picture of the poverty and degradation of the last century. THE BIG CITY - or THE NEW MAYHEW - stages the dim, pastel tragedies that are daily being enacted, is this century, between Holloway and Streatham. For the metropolis has no lack of poverty and degradation today, although much of it hides in the dark corners of tawdry souls. With the forlorn ambitions or dull resignation the Moving Picture Girl, the Encyclopaedia Seller, the Vicar, the Decayed Nobleman, the Literary man, or the Lady of the Streets pluck at the heart-strings like the echoes of a Victorian ballad. To this social round-up Alex Atkinson lends a unique flavour with the rotund and sentimental prose of the last century, and his portraits are exactly complemented by Ronald Searle's ludicrous-pathetic character-sketches. THE NEW MAYHEW, with its melancholy and satirical comment on our affluent society, first appeared in PUNCH. inventory #30848.
