A near fine copy free from internal inscriptions pushing to lower corners of front and back boards toning and spotting to the text block.

The Horse's Mouth by Joyce Cary follows Gulley Jimson a rebellious eccentric painter determined to create art at any cost. Told in his own vivid colloquial voice the novel explores the struggles of artistic obsession the tension between creativity and society and the sacrifices demanded by genius. Through Jimson's irreverent humour and chaotic adventures Cary examines the nature of inspiration the defiance of convention and the relentless pursuit of personal vision in a world that often misunderstands it.
