Sobre este artículo
London: Collins, 1931. Cloth. Good+. FIRST EDITION, INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR. 8vo. Original yellow cloth, spine lettered in gilt. Lean to spine, extremities bruised, sunned and soiled. Endpapers and half-title browned and spotted, inscribed in year of publication by Farjeon in sepia pen to ffep: "To dear Maggie/ with Eleanor's Love/ April, 1931" and below in a slighter hand, also in sepia ink: "Bertha Hagart./ July 1956", hinges cracked. Good+ It seems likely that Bertha Hagart (later Rose) was the Royal Academy of Music (RAM)-trained, South African pianist, who was active professionally both in South Africa and Britain in the 1950s. If this is the case, it also seems probable that Hagart and Farjeon met through the author's elder brother Harry, who taught at RAM for 45 years. Maggie, sadly, remains unidentified.
