Accompanied by two issues #15 and double number 16/7 in original wrappers and two supplements in original wrappers. A few wrappers show modest soiling those issues which inevitably show slight to a bit more than slight tanning to the text stock do so here some minor soiling and a few isolated spots to the cloth bindings tidemark at the toe of the spine of the volume containing 21/22/23 with some slight isolated rippling to some of the plates issues 15 and 16/17 lightly worn but unusually nice for these particular issues. Withal a good to largely very good or better run. A complete run of the most famous and influential expatriate literary periodical of its times edited by Eugene Jolas and various associate editors. This is a good association set with additions bound for and with the ownership signature in the second volume of poet/publisher James Laughlin who dedicated the premiere volume of his annual NEW DIRECTIONS IN PROSE & POETRY to "The Editors The Contributors & The Readers of TRANSITION who have begun successfully The Revolution of the Word." Issues number 1 and 6 are denoted second editions ie. printings with #1 now printing the correct order for Stein's "An Elucidation." Accompanied by the separate pamphlet printing of the corrected version of "An Elucidation" issued at Stein's insistence concurrent with the appearance of the first printing of issue #1. Also present is a fine copy of the supplement to issue #23 printing the collective "Testimony Against Gertrude Stein" in response to various slights errors or attacks made by her in THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF ALICE B. TOKLAS. Maria and Eugene Jolas Georges Braque Henri Matisse André Salmon and Tristan Tzara are the respondents. In addition to providing the forum for the serial publication of Joyce's WORK IN PROGRESS TRANSITION records a virtual who's who of the literary innovators of the times with the notable exception of Ezra Pound whose lack of affinity with one of the most frequent contributors may have led him to steer a separate course.

193319197New York: The Macaulay Company. Fair. c.1933. First Edition. Hardcover. no dust jacket well-worn book soiling to covers and page edges ffep removed with consequent cracking to front hinge second ffep with blurb ripped almost in half and nearly detached; basically a reading copy only. A very scarce book the only novel "written" by Ms. Joyce following her 1930 quasi-memoir "Men Marriage and Me" reportedly ghostwritten by Wallace Thurman the most notorious man-chaser of her day. Clearly designed as a fictional riff on her own romantical hijinks the book tells a tale of "rich American wives who become bored with husbands who have learned nothing more than to pay their bills" and who attempt to alleviate their ennui by decamping for Paris and the Riviera to experience "the cynical degenerate life of European pleasure capitals with their dangerous traps for American woman." Well like they say: write what you know. The anonymous reviewer for the New York Times felt that the book began "on an almost painfully moralistic plane" before descending to "broad burlesque" which the critic felt was preferable: "None of the book can be taken seriously but it is much easier to read when the author herself ceases to take it seriously." Peggy's countless affairs and multiple and often profitable marriages provided rich fodder for columnists comedians and songwriters she was referenced in songs by Rodgers & Hart and Cole Porter for well over a decade until her celebrity began to fade in the mid-1930s. The year this book was published in fact might represent the apex of her career as she also appeared as herself in the Paramount film INTERNATIONAL HOUSE the last of her handful of movie appearances serving primarily as the butt of some of the film's wisecracks delivered by W.C. Fields and others. . The Macaulay Company hardcover books
