Hardback. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Thus. This near fine unmarked copy is bound in grey cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to the spine, tight, bright and square. There is some light sunning to the page edges. The unclipped dust wrapper is in fine condition. International postal rates ar…e calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. Where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased charges will be quoted. Originally published in France in 1931, this was the first English language edition. In her second fictional attempt to represent her romance with Vita Sackville-West (Broderie Anglaise, 1985), Trefusis composed more a parable, an echo, than a novel a simplified, warped, and haunting reflection of the lives she also wrote about in her love letters. Sauge (partly Violet), a bored French socialite, visits the Scottish castle where her aunt, Lady Balquidder, lives with her orphaned twin cousins, Malcolm and Jean (read the androgynous Vita). Though often referred to as children, Malcolm and Jean are 20--overgrown, loutish, unsociable, sweaty, kilted, sullen, symbiotically attached, and deeply resentful of Sauge, whose presence they fear will interrupt their hunting and romping in the heather. To her, however, they are ""wonderfully savage,"" and she is inspired to ""tame"" their ""dark primitive minds."" In the end, though, they sound like everyone she was bored with in Paris, especially her husband, Alain, with whom she exchanges letters throughout the book--a device that allows Trefusis to avoid representing action (at which she is particularly inept) but enables her to offer arch and aphoristic commentary on Scottish, British, and French character.

Violet Trefusis (née Keppel; 6 June 1894 29 February 1972) was an English socialite and author.
