A journey "on which hangs the meaning of his being" to the island off Vancouver.

Lowry's search for humanity's lost equilibrium" (Victoria Brittain in the Illustrated London News, 1st November 1971). "A species of ecstatic prose that has all but gone out of existence" (Matthew Corrigan in the New York Times, 25th October 1970). Post 8vo (21cm). [4],[viii],336pp. Original maroon boards, blocked and lettered in gilt; top edge grey; tiny bruise at foot; some almost imperceptible tanning of endpapers; some spotting of edges, but a very good copy… Read More
