Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First edition. First edition, second impression. Signed presentation copy from the author. 8vo. Original cloth. Dust-jacket, clipped but with price 8s. 6d. present. An interesting copy, inscribed by Spender 'To Tony with love from Stephen December 9, 1939'. Presumably this would be to Tony Hyndman, Spender's lover whom he lived with between 1933 & 1936. This inscription was around the time that relationship had ended, with Spender marrying Inez Pearn that month, after an engagement of only three weeks. Hyndman is referred to as 'Jimmy Younger' in Spender's memoir WorldWithinWorld. Some foxing; a very good copy; jacket with a little very minor chipping and marking, overall very good. Signed. Book.
