réf. 06540London: Victor Gollancz Ltd. 1930. The Silence Before the Guns" Journey's End-Signed Limited Issue SHERRIFF Robert C.; BARTLETT Vernon. Journey's End. A Novel. London: Victor Gollancz Ltd. 1930. Limited to 600 numbered copies signed by R. C. Sherriff and Vernon Bartlett this copy No. 126. Octavo 7 3/4 x 5 1/4 inches; 197 x 133 mm. Publisher's quarter vellum over black cloth boards spine lettered in gilt top edge trimmed others uncut. Minimal foxing to endpapers two light scratches to front cover otherwise a fine copy. Journey's End began life as one of the most powerful stage depictions of the First World War - premiering in 1928 and quickly becoming a defining work of trench literature. This 1930 novelization written by Sherriff in collaboration with Bartlett expands the emotional interior of the officers in the dugout preserving the claustrophobic tension and quiet fatalism that made the play so enduring. One of the earliest collectible book forms of the text following the play's triumph and one of the most authentic literary portrayals of WWI trench life. It bridges drama and prose. A cornerstone work alongside Remarque and Sassoon in shaping the literary memory of the war. London: Victor Gollancz Ltd. , 1930 unknown books
