About this Item

True first edition, first issue of E M Forster's family saga with the motto 'Only Connect', considered by many to be his masterpiece. This edition has absolute primacy with four pages only of advertisements following the printed text - in the second issue from later in 1910 the advertisements extend to eight pages and include a notice of this novel itself. The red cloth boards are in good condition with sunning to the spine cloth and part of the upper board. 'Mudie's Library' label to upper cover and pastedown; no other subscription library markings. Cracking to paper over inner hinges but otherwise a near very good copy. A few brown spots to early pages. Here is Forster's remarkable novel in the form in which its first readers encountered it 'only connect'. Kirkpatrick A4a, first issue: [4] pp 344 [4] adverts.
