The backstrip toned, and with a touch of further toning to the board margins, and with the tiniest hint of wear to very occasional extremities. Tiny dealer plate to the base of the front pastedown. Very good indeed. Thirty-two poems, plus a translation from Rimbaud (produced in collaboration with Charles Mauron). The author's most uncommon second and final regularly published collection of verse, published sixteen-months before his death (Bell, the eldest son of Clive and Vanessa Bell, was hit with bomb fragments whilst working as a volunteer ambulance driver during the Spanish Civil War).
