"The novellino is a collection of fifty stories, each one told by the writer separately, without any striving after continuity. Masuccio does not trouble himself like certain others of the Novellieri, to construct a setting for his work, and to feign that the tales are told in turn by the work, and to feign that the tales are told in turn by the various members of a gentle company brought together by hazard. He tells us that all his novels are true, and that in many cases he is only setting down what he has learnt by the evidence of his senses. " Very nice set. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! SET/W47

190875p. Title page printed in red and black. Printed on Japan vellum. Partially unopened. Small 24mo. Original stiff printed Japan vellum wraps with large red initial on front cover. Slightly soiled. Limited Edition of only 425 copies. Third Edition. Nice example." The story is about an attempt to uncover the identity of Mr W.H., the enigmatic dedicatee of Shakespeare's Sonnets. It is based on a theory, originated by Thomas Tyrwhitt, that the Sonnets were addressed to one Willie Hughes, portrayed in the story as a boy actor who specialized in playing women in Shakespeare's company. This theory depends on the assumption that the dedicatee is also the Fair Youth who is the subject of most of the poems. The only evidence for this theory is a number of sonnets (such as Sonnet 20) that make puns on the words 'Will' and 'Hues." - Wiki. Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (1854-1900) was an Irish writer and poet. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of London's most popular playwrights in the early 1890s. Today he is remembered for his epigrams, his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, his plays, and the circumstances of his imprisonment and early death. - Wiki. PRESS/W39. **PRICE JUST REDUCED!
