Description:
New York: Farrar, Straus and Young, Inc, 1950. Hardcover. Near Fine/near fine. Duodecimo size, 142 pp. English poet George Barker (1913-1991) wrote numerous works of both poetry and prose, often part of the New Apocalyptics movement, a refutation of the realism of the 1930s using mythical themes. "The Dead Seagull", although a work of fiction, draws from Barker's love affair with poet and novelist Elizabeth Smart (who also wrote about the affair in her book "By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept"). A surprisingly scarce novel in the first or early editions, "'The Dead Seagull' is a work of great originality, a poet's novel written with the richness of colour, the concentrated violence of style that have distinguished George Barker's verse" (per the dust jacket flap). The date of publication and "First American edition" are noted on the front free endpaper by a prior bookseller. ___DESCRIPTION: Full orange cloth, black cloth spine labels with gilt decorative borders and lettering, title page… Read More
