About This Item
Cardiff: University of Wales Press. As New in As New dust jacket. 1987. First Edition. Hardcover. 0708309623 . Bought New and never read - NEW. Glossy Scarlet Red boards, bright gilt titling to spine. In the original publisher's David Jones' decorated dustjacket. Dustjacket NOT price clipped. NO INSCRIPTIONS or Marks, VERY CLEAN TIGHT AND BRIGHT. Unread / Unmarked . (viii) +162 pp. An AS NEW, MINT copy. " Christine Pagnoulle's commentary provides a detailed study of eight among David Jones's more accessible poems: those pieces in fact which he reluctantly detached from his work-in-progress and released for publication between 1955 and his death in 1974. It elucidates difficult passages, relates them to his other works, whether poems, essays, or drawings, and shows how David Jones's vision of the world in the middle of our century bears on our present concerns. While developing orignal interpretations this commentary also integrates previous critical approaches into a comprehensive overview. It will thus be welcome reading for specialists of David Jones's poetry, and will also be of interest to those readers who are discovering or still have to discover his work." .
