Cloth and boards. Gilt green cloth. First edition, preceding the UK edition by almost two years. Near fine in very good, lightly rubbed and smudged pictorial dust jacket.
Bryher (1894 - 1983) was the pen name of the English novelist, poet, memoirist, and magazine editor Annie Winifred Ellerman, who supported many artists, writers, and friends with the proceeds of a fortune derived from the Ellerman ship enterprises. She was a major figure of the international set in Paris in the 1920s, her friends being the usual suspects. With her lover Hilda Doolittle (H.D.) and the Scottish writer Kenneth Macpherson, she launched the film magazine Close Up, which introduced Sergei Eisenstein's work to British viewers. From her home in Switzerland, she helped to evacuate Jews from Nazi Germany, and then became a popular historical novelist. This novel deals with 1066 and all that.
