Very good on lightly-aged paper. Addressed to 'My dear Old DD' and 'E. D. Davis'. He realises that Davis is in 'a precious state of mind' and will only send 'a few lines to exchange domestic greetings of kindliness & good fellowship from the circle of Balham to the Square in N'Castle - the waters of the Thames mingle with those of the Tyne'. A few words put to music follow with a lighthearted quotation from the novel 'Valentine Vox': 'Mynheer Vandunk who never got drunk - sipped brandy & water gaily "cold without" Railly!' He concludes: '"Cold Without & Warm within" Wishing you & yours all the enjoyment due at this festive demise of the old year 1863 & continued prosperity with the birth of the New Year 1864'. Postscript: 'Have you or Mrs D. been robbing Noah's Ark We'll try to consume it - the contents I mean. Not the ark or hamper. signed T G R'. The words 'Business Bad' alone on reverse of second leaf.

He is 'waiting till the end of the hunting season' before writing: 'I don't consider this a letter only an intermezzo or parenthesis'. He has been 'suffering from pains in the back beginning with lumbago & in the legs to such an extent that I can scarcely walk erect - Whats the remedy My Northern Esculapius - Eh' He concludes: 'When are you coming to town You'll miss all the parts if you don't come soon - We must! We shall! We Will! have one more run. And become gay. And become gay become gay to make our vitals good!!!' He ends with a few bars setting these final words to music and signs 'T'.

Dekorativ goldgeprägter Ledereinband, dekorativer Rücken, Kapital-/Kapitaleinband UNVERLETZT, Kopfschnitt vergoldet, keine Läsur am oberen Rand des vorderen Buchdeckel (kaum erkennbar), Buchecken minimal bestossen, ansonsten sehr guter Zustand. Dünndruck. Widmung von 1925 auf Vorsatzblatt, 516 paginierte Seiten, Karte von Wessex am Ende. Insgesamt guter Zustand. +++ Verfasst um 1889/90 wurde der Roman 1891 zunächst als Fortsetzung in einer bowdlerisierten Fassung in der Zeitschrift Graphic veröffentlicht und erschien anschließend auch in einer dreibändigen Ausgabe. Zuvor hatten zwei Zeitschriften, denen Hardy das Manuskript zur fortsetzungsweisen Veröffentlichung angeboten hatte, den Druck des Romans rundherum abgelehnt, da den Herausgebern die unbeschönigte Offenheit und Ausführlichkeit, mit der Hardy Tess' Verführung durch Alec und einige andere anstößige Szenen in der Erstfassung schilderte, als ungehörig und nicht publikationswürdig erschien. Hardy entschloss sich daraufhin zu einer drastischen Kürzung und Umarbeitung der Manuskriptvorlage. Die schließlich in Graphic abgedruckte Fassung enthält daher weder die für das Leben von Tess so verhängnisvolle Nacht in "The Chase" noch einen Bericht über die darauffolgenden Wochen auf Trantridge. In dieser ersten abgedruckten Fortsetzungsversion wird Tess das Opfer einer Scheinheirat mit Alec. Damit wird ein in der damaligen Trivial- und Unterhaltungsliteratur beliebtes Motiv in diese Druckfassung des Romans aufgenommen, das es Hardy möglich machte, die illegitimen Beziehungen zwischen Mann und Frau in einer Form darzustellen, die nicht der Zensur zum Opfer zu fallen drohte (Wikipedia). +++ Text in english. A full-leather bound book with minor storage/handling marks, spine-ends intact, top-edge guilded, dedication (from 1925) on front endpaper, 516 pages printed on India paper, map of Wessex at the end, altogether good condition. +++ 11,4 x 18 cm, 0,3 kg. +++ Stichwörter/Keywords: Englische Literatur Belletristik Bibliophilie novel english literature‎

The poem was published in 1829 in the keepsake 'The Casket' London: John Murray; apart from accidentals that version corresponds to this.
