Rare Book
Inscribed by the author on the flyleaf: 'To Yvonne - this solitary excursion into the graphic arts - with love from Jocelyn'. The recipient was the author and activist, Yvonne Kapp, who also published under the name Yvonne Cloud.A very funny jeu d'esprit, the pictorial element somewhat in the line of Max Ernst's 'Une Semaine de bont', with Brooke's text heightening the absurdity.
FIRST EDITION, illustrations to each recto, collages using Victorian engraved illustrations as their source material, pp. 91, small 4to, original red boards backstrip lettered in gilt, dustjacket browned to backstrip panel and borders, a little chipped and nicked, very good
