New York:: Dodd, Mead,, 1923.. Hardcover -. Very near fine in a very good example of the uncommon dustjacket. with some toning to the spine, minor edgewear. . Vintage hardcover. Hope's second book of poetry, originally published in 1903. She spent almost all of her adult life in India, and her writing "steeped in the Indian landscape and Sufi symbolism, often assumes the voices of Indian dancers and slaves to engage themes of passionate love and loss. Her first collection, The Garden of Kama (1901), was initially presented as a translation and arrangement, rather than the original poetry it was later revealed to be." While her work was very popular at the time, they would not have been considered proper for a woman to write, thus the adoption of a male pen name. In an attractive red cloth binding with a stylish art deco illustration on the front cover, gilt lettering on the spine. 152 pp.

"In 1901, she published Garden of Kama, which was published a year later in America under the title India's Love Lyrics. She attempted to pass these off as translations of various poets, but this claim soon fell under suspicion. Her poems often used imagery and symbols from the poets of the North-West Frontier of India and the Sufi poets of Persia. She was among the most popular romantic poets of the Edwardian era. Her poems are typically about…
