Memoirs of a Midget by de la Mare, Walter

New York: Alfred A Knopf 1922, later printing. (Hardcover) 436pp. Very good, no dust jacket. Light brown cloth with orange and gilt title decoration to the cover and spine, top edge stained. The covers are lightly soiled and worn, a previous owner's name on the front free endpaper. "A few introductory and explanatory remarks are due, I think, to the reader of the following Memoirs. The Memoirs themselves will disclose how I became acquainted with Miss M. They also refer here and there to the small part I was enabled to take in straightening matters out at what was a critical juncture in her affairs, and in securing for her that independence which enabled her to live in the privacy she loved, without any anxiety as to ways and means" - from the Introduction by Walter Dadus Pollacke. (Fiction, Fiction, Surrealism).
