19288099New York: Crosby Gaige 1928. First edition. Fine. Preceding the first trade edition. One of 861 copies signed by Virginia Woolf. A Fine copy. Publisher's black cloth titled and decorated in gilt. An extraordinarily bright and attractive example.<br /> <br /> Released at the height of Woolf's literary celebrity Orlando was a thrill to contemporary reviewers: "Those who open Orlando expecting another novel in the vein of Mrs. Dalloway and To the Lighthouse will discover to their joy or sorrow that once more Mrs. Woolf has broken with tradition and convention and has set out to explore still another fourth dimension of writing.In this new work she is largely preoccupied with the time element in character and human relationships and with a statement of the exact complexion of that intangible moment.which we refer to as the present" contemporary New York Times review. <br /> <br /> Blending literary narrative with feminist theory Orlando explores Einstein's theory of relativity through the lens of a single life that evolves over centuries. "At the beginning of the book Orlando is a Elizabethan era boy of sixteen melancholy indolent loving solitude and given to writing poetry.the book ends on the 11th October 1928 and Orlando is a thoroughly modern matron of 36 who has published a successful book of poems and has evolved a hard-earned philosophy of life" Cleveland. The result is an allegory that questions the stability of any human category - individual character gender selfhood - and a novel that considers how time changes both individuals and society. Orlando is a testament to Woolf's innovative mind and to her role as one of the most important early contributors to feminist and queer literature. Fine. Crosby Gaige unknown

1928192836New York: Crosby Gaige 1928. Hilda Vaughan's copy of the signed limited edition True first edition number 208 of 800 copies signed by the author. This copy belonged to the Welsh writer Hilda Vaughan whom the Woolfs invited to dine on at least one occasion. Vaughan's works of realism set mostly in her native Radnorshire were the antithesis of Woolf's experimental style. Woolf particularly loathed the novels of Vaughan's husband Charles Langbridge Morgan accusing him "of wrapping up tame little reputable platitudes in words of twenty five syllables and thus posing and thus undermining the health of English letters. But I explode so easily against fiction that I have hardly any trust in my own vehemence" Letters p. 24. Her experience as organizing secretary of the Women's Land Army inspired Vaughan's depiction of working-class women in her novels. Her service also inspired the romance writer Berta Ruck who portrayed Vaughan in The Land Girl's Love-Story 1919. Vaughan's literary prestige gradually waned following her well-reviewed debut The Battle to the Weak 1925 though her contributions to Anglo-Welsh literature have since been posthumously reassessed. Her ownership inscription is on the front pastedown. This edition comprised 861 copies published nine days before the first trade edition issued by the Hogarth Press on 11 October. Inspired by Vita Sackville-West the novel was described by her son Nigel Nicolson as "the longest love letter in history". Octavo. Frontispiece with tissue guard 7 half-tone photographic illustrations including 3 of Vita Sackville-West as Orlando. Original black cloth spine lettered and decorated in gilt publisher's device to front cover in gilt cream endpapers top edge gilt others untrimmed. With original glassine dust jacket. Housed in custom black quarter morocco folding box. Faint sunning to spine gilt mark to rear cover; glassine edges chipped but sound: a near-fine copy. Kirkpatrick A11a; see Woolmer 185.
