Sobre este artículo
London: Michael Joseph, 1960. First Edition. . Hardback. Good/Good. First edition, first printing. Hardback in dustwrapper. 20.5 × 13cm, 239pp. This collection of four novellas continue Bates's sensitive, often witty, explorations of unhappy love. The title story, 'An Aspidistra in Babylon', is a reminiscence of a girl's loss of innocence. Christine, who describes herself at eighteen as 'dull as one of the aspidistras that cluttered up. our little boarding house' is seduced by the forty-year-old Captain Blaine, who charms her imagination with stories of a life on the Continent. Condition: The book is in good solid condition, with heavy foxing to the pages edges. The dustwrapper is tanned to the spine but remains attractive and is now within a protective sleeve.
