About this Item
Thick octavo. Brown cloth, stamped in gilt. [10],531,[1] pp. Shelf wear at bottom edge, top edge of spine close-splayed, bookplate to front pastedown, stamp of NY literary agency to first free endpaper, else rather good; in an unclipped pictorial dust jacket that has many losses and tape repairs, present but only fair in a mylar protective cover. First edition, first impression. Sackville West's novel delves into the transition from youth to adulthood, examining the challenges, aspirations, and personal growth experienced by a group of privileged young Englishmen from preparatory school, to Eton, then Oxford, and beyond. Sackville West reflects on the broader context of Western civilization during the 1930s, and within this historical backdrop he adds depth to the narrative and provides insights into the cultural and societal norms of the time. The novel also touches upon the political climate of the era, particularly the rise of the Nazi regime in Germany, and explores how this regime impacted the lives of the characters and influenced their perspectives.
