1931 All Passion Spent
What Our Customers Say...
Description
First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding
A lovely copy of the first edition, first impression of this novel.
A work by by English poet, novelist and horticulturalist Vita Sackville-West, a prolific letter writer and diarist known for inspiring the androgynous protagonist of 'Orlando', written by her friend and lover Virginia Woolf.
'All Passion Spent' is one of Sackville-West's best known novels, addressing women's control over their lives.
A literary fiction novel split into three parts, the reader follows Lady Slane after the death of her husband. Sharing much with Sackville-West, Lady Slane explicitly states that she is not a feminist, and gives voice to many of Sackville-West's personal opinions.
Condition
In the publisher's original cloth binding. Back strip age toned, with boards bright. Light spotting to text block fore edge. Internally, firmly bound. Pages bright. Foxing to title page and first few leaves, with further instances of light spotting to page perimeters.
