About this Item
Florence: Privately Printed by the Tipografia Giuntina, 1928. 4to 2 p.l., 365, [1] pp., [1] leaf (blank). FIRST EDITION. ONE OF 1,000 COPIES, SIGNED BY LAWRENCE. Original publisher's mulberry-colored paper boards, edges untrimmed, note chips to spine, else quite lovely. Roberts A-42a. This is simply a good tpo very gppd copy of one of the major works of British literature in the 20th century. Although poetical in the general treatment of its subject, this book is a landmark in the history of the English novel in that it depicts for the first time in a studied and unabashedly direct way the concrete sexual experience, accompanied by the uninhibited language of real life. The book was first published in Italy because of obstacles erected by the censor in Britain, where it did not circulate in unexpurgated form until 1960. Seller Inventory # 1000369
