Soft Cover. Condición: Near Fine. Reprint. Thirty-Seventh Printing. Publisher's glossy wraps. nd (c. 1970). Eric Arthur Blair (1903-1950), who used the pen name George Orwell, was an English novelist, essayist, journalist, and critic. His work is marked by lucid prose, awareness of social injustice, opposition to totalitarianism, and outspoken support of democratic socialism. Orwell's work continues to influence popular and political culture, and the term Orwellian - descriptive of totalitarian or authoritarian social practices - has entered the language together with many of his neologisms, including cold war, Big Brother, thought police, memory hole, newspeak, doublethink, and thoughtcrime. . Covers very lightly worn, else fine; unmarked, tight, square, and clean. NEAR FINE. . Signet Classics Series. 12mo 7" - 7½" tall. 128 pp.

Original o primera edición
Second impression of the first edition. Four volumes. Publisher's original blue cloth with gilt titles to the spine, pale blue endpapers, in dustwrappers. Portrait and manuscript frontispieces to each volume. An excellent better than very good set, the bindings square and firm, with bumping and rubbing to the spine ends and corners, the cloth with a little dustiness, and a knock at the head of the spine of volume III. The contents are clean throughout and free from inscriptions or stamps. The top and fore-edge of the closed text block are a little spotted. Complete with the lightly rubbed, nicked and creased dustwrappers, which are ever so lightly (and uniformly) faded to the spine, volume III with some white marks to the rear panel. All volumes have been clipped and re-priced by the publisher (£4.00 net to the front flap), as issued. An attractive set. This collected edition of Orwell's Essays, Journalism and Letters was compiled and edited by the author's widow and Ian Angus, librarian and one of the founders of the Orwell Archive. As Ian Hamilton wrote in his review, the editorial task was "huge", but "the only way of getting on [.] really close, conclusive terms" with the author. The result was, "[f]our bulging volumes of essays, book reviews, weekly columns, letters, broadcasts, all arranged and edited with considerable care. And one's first, awed, response is simply to the 'amount' Orwell wrote. How did he manage it?" ('New Society' 3 October, 1968; Fenwick D12) Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers.

Original o primera edición
With a Foreword by Victor Gollancz. London: Victor Gollancz, 1937. Original orange cloth wrappers. First Edition ("Left Book Club Edition / Not for Sale to the Public"). Part I of this book describes the living conditions of the coal miners in the industrial north of England, illustrated with photographs; Part II describes Orwell's own middle-class upbringing, and the development of his social and political conscience. The publisher Victor Gollancz -- a social reformer himself -- put up the funds for Orwell to live among the miners for some months. Gollancz also issued a 1937 trade edition (hardback with dust jacket), which did not include Gollancz's 14-page Foreword. This book preceded Orwell's postwar ANIMAL FARM and NINETEEN EIGHTY-FOUR by about a decade. This is a near-fine copy (volume slightly askew, a few stray orange threads at some edges); though not a scarce book, it typically turns up soiled and frayed. NCBEL IV 691.

Manuscrito
Typescript. Perfect bound in card wrappers with blue bordered typed label to the upper cover. A play in three acts with character descriptions. 116 mimeographed pages, the text on rectos only. Hand corrected / altered in black ink throughout. In very good condition, the binding a little rubbed and marked, the contents with some silverfish erosion to the edge of the blank front endpaper and tanning to the text block edge otherwise clean. Almost certainly unique. An early adaptation of George Orwell's novel for the stage. We have been unable to find any information pertaining to the author (perhaps a pseudonym?) or evidence of the play in this form ever making it to production.

First edition, first printing. Publisher's original green cloth with red titles to the spine, in the maroon Michael Kennard designed dustwrapper. Top edge purple. An excellent near fine copy, the binding square and firm, the cloth bright and fresh with a little fading to the extreme edges. The contents are clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. The text block edge is a little toned with a few spots of foxing to the top edge, the purple however remains vivid and without fading. Complete with very good rubbed and nicked dustwrapper, that has a couple of small chips with associated creasing to the upper tip of the habitually faded spine. The present example, in entirely original condition, does retain some of its red colour to the spine panel rendering the white titles still legible and is therefore uncommon thus. Not price-clipped (10s net to the lower front flap). Housed in a bespoke grey and black quarter morocco solander case. The first printing of Nineteen Eighty-Four was published on 8th June 1949, the 25,000 copies issued in two colours of dustwrapper, identical in all but the background colour of the upper panel and spine, one being green, the other maroon. Although no precedence has been established, the maroon would appear to be scarcer of the two and is considered the more desirable. (Fenwick A12a).

First UK edition, first printing. Original black cloth with green titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. A very good copy, the binding clean and square. The contents with a small ink name and date to the front free endpaper and some spotting to the text block edge. Complete with the rubbed and darkened dustwrapper which is a little nicked and chipped to the extremities resulting in small loss to the head of the spine. Correctly priced 7/6 net to the spine. Housed in a bespoke black quarter morocco solander case. Burmese Days is George Orwell's first novel, although his second to be published in the UK. The book was published in America by Harper and Brothers in October 1934 and not until June 1935, after numerous revisions to the "potentially libelous novel", did Victor Gollancz print 2500 copies of the UK first edition (several months after the publication of A Clergyman's Daughter). The Gollancz first printing is a notable rarity in the original dustwrapper. (Fenwick A.2c.) Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request.
