1935202710Victor Gollancz Ltd 1935. 1st Edition. Hardcover. VG-. First Edition First Impression. 12.5 x 19 cm. Publisher's black cloth boards with spine titles in yellowish green 317pp. Error on p188: Blask Mass for Black Mass as called for. One of 2000 copies published on 11 March 1935 50 of which were sent for distribution in Canada. Orwell was never satisfied with this book and prevented it from being reprinted during his lifetime; in a letter to George Woodcock in 1946 he wrote: "it was written simply as an exercise and I oughtn't to have published it but I was desperate for money". The boards are a little age worn with rubbing to fore edge corners and a little fraying to the spine corners. Internally the hinges are cracked though the boards are firmly attached and there is sporadic spotting finger marks and other marks throughout. The top corner of p77 & p221 is missing not affecting any text. A very presentable copy of the author's second and most rare novel now housed in a solander box. Rainford & Parris Books welcomes enquiries so please do not hesitate to ask if you require further images or have any questions. All books are packaged with great care. Victor Gollancz Ltd hardcover
