Decline and Fall
Chapman & Hall, 1928.
First edition. 8vo. 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 near fine copy with slight wear to the gilt lettering in an about very good dustwrapper, which is worn to the spine ends and corners with some fraying to the joints. Browning to the spine as always, with the red lettering almost entirely faded with a little chipping to the spine label.
The author's brilliant first novel, described by Connolly as "anarchic and experimental, surely one of the wittiest and most original of first novels."
