One of 50 Copies - with a Joyce Contribution. Compendium of Joyceana which contains an anonymous piece clearly by Joyce himself entitled "Ad-Writer". It is a very funny letter to one "Mr. Huntington" in which Joyce suggests strategies for the marketing of his friend Italo Svevo's novel CONFESSIONS OF ZENO which is about a tobacco addict's attempts to quit smoking Svevo was literaly rescued from oblivion by Joyces discovery of him.<br/><br/><br/><br/>" . With regard to that other book by the author of Senilitá the only things I can suggest as like to attract the British reading public are a preface by Sir James Barrie author of My Lady Nicotine opinions of the book to be printed on the back of its jacket from two deservedly popular personalities of the present day such as the rector of Stiffkey and the Princess of Wales and on the front of the jacket a coloured picture by a Royal Academician representing two young ladies one fair and the other dark but both distinctly nice-looking seated in a graceful though of course not unbecoming posture at a table on which a book stands upright with title visible and underneath the picture three lines of simple dialogue for example:<br/><br/><br/><br/> Edith: Does Cyril spend too much on cigarettes<br/><br/> Doris: Far too much.<br/><br/> Ethel: So did Percy points - till I gave him ZENO."<br/><br/><br/><br/>This copy though clearly not "bound" not on "Renage pur fil" and seemingly identical in every way to the "trade issue" -- is nonetheless undeniably Copy No. 20 of 50.
