Proud Lady. With Autograph Letter to the Critic Rebecca Lowrie Signed

1923List327New York: Alfred A. Knopf 1923. First Edition. With an autograph letter signed with the envelope affixed to the front pastedown. With the bookplate of John and Rebecca Lowrie on front free endpaper. Lowrie reviewed the work for the New York Post and her review of the book affixed to the half-title. Very Good. Neith Boyce was an author and theater artist who worked across genres publishing a range of works and co-founding the Provincetown Players. Boyce and her husband Hutchins Hapgood were at the social center of a large circle of writers and artists including Gertrude Stein Georgia O'Keefe and Djuna Barnes. Their papers held at Yale provide rich insight into their artistic and literary era. Proud Lady was the second-to-last novel Boyce wrote and it was apparently her favorite. The novel is the story of Mary Carlin a woman who seeks spiritual perfection in others and who because of her pride cannot make herself leave her unfaithful husband. Rebecca Lowrie in her review written for the New York Post and included here states "all the vividness of the setting the touches which make the people so sure a part of their surroundings are secondary to the tragic figure of the proud lady and the victims of her pride." Boyce's letter to Lowrie effusively thanks her for her review of the book which from her tone appears to have been misunderstood by other critics. She writes "I have just seen your review of my novel Proud Lady. It is the most intelligent and best-written review that I have seen so far and I would like to convey to you my appreciation and the pleasure your attitude toward the book has given me." Overall a very nice association and a very good copy of an uncommon book. Some light wear and rubbing a few faint scuffs to cloth on the front board slightest bowing to spine but very good. Letter near fine with minimal wear. $450. Alfred A. Knopf unknown books
