Description:
The sole UK printing published by Paragon Publishing Works, London in 1916. The BOOK is in near Fine condition. Very slight edge wear. Covers slightly darkened to edges but the book remains in remarkable condition despite its age and cheap production. The poet/painter's third separate publication, which like its predecessors were printed at his own expense and privately distributed. The tittle is slightly deceptive, as a small group of poems, including war poems, are appended. A few tiny 'corrections' to the text have been neatly made by the publishers as usually encountered. The binding is stitched with the bright yellow wrappers glued on from the back end-paper. A very rare book in remarkably good condition. Housed in a custom solander box with gilt titling and marbled paper lining. Scarce. Ashton Rare Books welcomes direct contact.

This copy has ten manuscript corrections to the text, as usual, possibly by Rosenberg's sister Mina. Rosenberg first met Schiff (1868-1944), a translator of Proust's Recherche and a modernist financier, in the spring of 1915, and soon joined Eliot, Joyce, and Wyndham Lewis as one of his beneficiaries. "Schiff became Rosenberg's 'absentee' patron, in the sense that he put no pressure on him to produce works in return for occasional support, and he was available whenever Rosenberg needed him" (Cohen, p. 116). The two men, both Jewish, corresponded throughout Rosenberg's time in the trenches, where the poet faced antisemitism…
