007866London: The Swallow Press 1975. Full leather. This is an exquisite finely bound strikingly unconventionally illustrated edition of The Sonnets by poet playwright dramatist and primus inter pares William Shakespeare. 300 copies were produced thus of which this is number 44 signed on the colophon by Robert Graves who contributes a substantive Preface Edward Burrett the book designer and Clarke Hutton the illustrator. A troika of features distinguish this copy. First is exceptional condition. Second this copy is accompanied by the original publishers prospectus and order form. Third this is a designers presentation copy evidenced by a lengthy signed and dated 1975 gift inscription by Edward Burrett and his wife Cecile on the recto of the blank preceding the half title. Edward Burrett 1909-1995 was a noted specialist and connoisseur in book design a founding member of the Society of Typographic Designers and founding proprietor of the Penmiel Press. <br /> <br />This large volume measures 10 x 14 inches 25.4 x 35.6 cm bound in full Niger Morocco goatskin by Sangorski and Sutcliffe the contents printed on laid paper with each of the one hundred and fifty-four Sonnets allocated a single page. The volume is housed in a felt-lined purple and gold paper-covered slipcase featuring an interlocking pattern of swallows which is mirrored on the pastedowns of the book. The Sonnets features 40 illustrations on various tinted papers by Clarke Hutton 1898-1984 one of the most eminent and influential book illustrators of his time. Hutton adds something unique to Shakespeares work which so often comes accompanied by traditional engravings rather than modernist line work. The colophon features the signatures of Robert Graves Edward Burrett and Clarke Hutton below the limitation number 44. The signatures of the book designer Edward Burrett and his wife Cecile are also found beneath their autograph gift inscription. Laid in are the large and beautifully printed publishers prospectus featuring a specimen page and extensive information about the edition. Also laid in is the publishers order form. <br /> <br />The volume is in truly fine condition with no appreciable wear or flaws to either the binding or contents. The slipcase remains bright and fully intact with superficial overall scuffing. <br /> <br />William Shakespeare 1564-1616 left a cultural and literary legacy whose continuing influence is difficult to overstate. His stature so dominates English letters that it verges on biblical proportion. To the point Shakespeare is often assumed to have been born on 23 April St. Georges Day so that Englands national poet and her patron saint share the same day of celebration akin to how Christs birthday is asserted onto the winter solstice. <br /> <br />Shakespeares plays are the most conspicuous aspect of his literary legacy but as Robert Graves states in his Preface Shakespeare built up a double reputation in literature; as a classic English playwright and as author of the Sonnets his profound meditations on love. In the plays we are frequently aware of Shakespeare the poet; in the Sonnets we recognize his role as dramatist. The author of the Sonnets became incomparably greater than his contemporaries precisely because he needed to see himself and his beloved in dramatic and human terms. <br /> <br />Robert Graves 1895-1985 was an English poet novelist critic and translator perhaps best known today as a pioneer and master of the historical fiction genre for his Claudius series compellingly fictionalizing the Roman Emperor. Born to a middle-class family with an Irish Gaelic scholar father Gravess early life shaped his love for myth and poetry even as boxing shaped his repeatedly broken nose. In 1913 he received a scholarship to study classics at St Johns College Oxford. However he did not take his place at the university until after WWI; in 1914 he enlisted almost immediately after the outbreak of war joining a regiment which included fellow war poet Siegfried Sassoon. <br/><br/> The Swallow Press hardcover

The story of the creation of the world and of the the First Age this is the ancient drama to which the characters in THE LORD OF THE RINGS look back and in whose events some of them such as Elrond and Galadriel took part. The three Silmarils were jewels created by Feanor most gifted of the Elves. Within them was imprisoned the Light of the Two Trees of Valinor before the Trees themselves were destroyed by Morgoth the first Dark Lord. Thereafter the unsullied Light of Valinor lived on only in the Silmarils but they were seized by Morgoth and set in his crown which was guarded in the impenetrable fortress of Angband in the north of Middle-earth. THE SILMARILLION is the history of the rebellion of Feanor and his kindred against the gods their exile from Valinor and return to Middle-earth and their war hopeless despite all their heroism against the great Enemy. This second edition features a letter written by J.R.R. Tolkien describing his intentions for the book which serves as a brilliant exposition of his conception of the earlier Ages of Middle-earth." ; FINE/G <br/> <br/> Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1977 hardcover

The Sharpshooter Blues is in part an exuberant meditation on America's love affair with blue-steel barrels and snub-nose bullets and in part a heartbreaking look at the violence and loss that ensue when the guns come out to play one day in a small town. But most of all after the bullets have flown it's a story of love - between fathers and sons between husbands and wives between gay lovers and between longtime neighbors and friends. --Source: Publisher ; Lewis Nordan was born in Forest Mississippi on August 23 1939.
