157728Weston Massachusetts: M&S Press 1984. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength First edition number 43 of 55 deluxe copies from a total edition of 330 copies specially bound by the Grey Parrot bindery quoting the infamous slogans of The Party on the front cover. Published in 1984 this sumptuous privately printed edition presents in facsimile all that survives of the preliminary draft versions of Nineteen Eight-Four a manuscript described by Sonia Orwell as "the only MS of any of George's books in existence". Orwell's classic work of dystopian fiction was begun in 1946 and composed in four stages. The extant manuscript provides the narrative of Nineteen Eighty-Four in outline from the beginning almost to the conclusion with some gaps. As noted by Peter Davison in his Introduction to this edition "despite all the rewriting revealed by this facsimile it is remarkable how closely what has survived adheres to the main sweep of the narrative of Nineteen Eighty-Four. All the principal features except the Appendix on Newspeak are present suggesting that the story had been pretty fully formed in Orwell's mind by the time he sat down to write it". In 1952 Sonia Orwell contributed "the original manuscript of Orwell's last novel partly in typescript but mainly in his own manuscript" to a charity auction at Christie's. It sold to Scribner's of New York who then arranged a sale to a collector in Kansas. Scribner's again handled the manuscript in 1969 when it was sold to Daniel G. Siegel. It is now at Brown University Library. This privately printed limited edition was limited to 330 copies of which there were two issues: 275 copies with morocco-backed marbled boards and 55 copies described as "special copies" which are bound in full morocco by the Gray Parrot bindery with a folding box. The present copy is from the smallest and most deluxe issue and the only one with the party slogans incorporated into the binding. The volume comprises a preface by Daniel G. Siegel an Introduction by Peter Davison 190 colour facsimile illustrations and a full transcript of Orwell's manuscript. Folio. 190 colour facsimile illustrations. Original blue morocco with black onlays by Gray Parrot Easthampton spine lettered in gilt panel to front cover with lettering "War is Peace Freedom is Slavery Ignorance is Strength" in gilt. Light grey endpapers. Housed in original blue morocco-backed grey cloth folding box with spine lettered in gilt. Fine condition. Presented in original numbered cardboard carton. hardcover
