Contemporary bookplate of Walter A. Donnelly on the front pastedown and his ownership signature on the front fly else very near fine in attractive very good or better second printing dustjacket with several old internal tape repairs mostly at the folds and not visible on the outside. The text of the second printing jacket appears to be identical to the text of the first printing although laid out slightly differently with "Second printing" overstamped in red on the front panel. Joyce's landmark first novel. Huebsch printed 1250 sets of sheets for the first edition selling 500 sets to England for the Egoist Press edition which was published later thus the true first edition in this case the American edition preceded the English was 750 copies. We are unaware of the number of copies in the second printing but it was likely to have been quite small perhaps as few as 500 copies. Although the first edition is rare in jacket we've at least seen a few jacketed copies. This is the first copy we've seen of the second printing in the appropriate jacket. B.W.

1916ref. 3926New York: B. W. Huebsch 1916. First edition. Very Good . A Very Good copy with minor shelfwear to extremities. Spine toned. Rear inner hinge tender but holding. Previous owner's bookplate to the front free endpaper. Joyce's first novel recounts the coming of age story of Stephen Dedalus the artistic alter-ego of Joyce himself. Stephen grows up ensconced in rigid institutions: the church school system family and national politics. Feeling trapped Stephen experiences a series of awakenings as he grows older and as a result of these awakenings Stephen rejects these traditional bulwarks of Irish culture. Instead he develops an aestheticism that will support his artistic vision. This rejection of existing communities and institutions alongside his embrace of a new aestheticism alienates Stephen from what he knows. Facing this alienation Stephen decides to leave Ireland and pursue his art abroad. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is an important contribution to literary modernism. One aspect of this innovativeness is Joyce's use of age-appropriate syntax and vocabulary. The beginning of the novel which starts in Stephen's infancy is mostly monosyllabic nonsense. As Stephen grows older and grasps more about the world and his place in it the novel's vocabulary and syntax become correspondingly complex. Of Joyce's first novel H.G. Wells writes that "It is a mosaic of jagged fragments that does altogether render with extreme completeness the growth of a rather secretive imaginative boy in Dublin. The technique is startling but on the whole it succeeds." Very Good . B. W. Huebsch unknown books
