About This Item
London : Modern Fiction (London), [ca.1952]. First edition. A novel set in the ruins of post-war Hamburg, as Ilsa decides to smoke her last cigarette - and wants a man to light it. Crown 8vo (18cm). 96pp. Original pictorial stapled wrappers - young woman in green examines a puppet on her knee - a design, probably by H. W. Perl, previously used on an earlier Modern Fiction title ("Lost Love" by Henri Duprès) and here crudely adapted; wrappers used, worn, scuffed, creased and a little marked, with some chipping; some minor internal browning and discolouration, but a serviceable copy of an uncommon title. Just a single copy (British Library) located in major libraries worldwide.
