Chapman & Hall, 1928. First edition. Original red and black patterned boards lettered in gilt, in green pictorial dustwrapper designed by the author. Six full page line drawings by the author. A fine copy in a very good dustwrapper indeed which is bright but for the habitual toning to the spine and fading to the title label, with a little wear to the spine ends. [45382] £9,500 The author’s brilliant first novel, described by Connolly as “anarchic and experimental, surely one of the wittiest and most original of first novels.”
