From the library of Richard Hayward - Ulster Author. [Printed on Hand Made Paper] Slip case. Bound by Bayntun Riviere, Bath. Gorgeous, and worthy of displaying for this (2022) hundredth anniversary of the publication of this, one of the most important literary works of the Twentieth-Century. Magnificent, evocative, symphonic language! Who among the laters, hath sung it mouthfully better?
