Hardcover. Condición: Very Good+. Very Good- dj. First American Edition. [moderately shelfworn, light-colored staining along front joint; jacket has paper loss at several corners, various small nicks and tears, some soiling and age-darkening to rear panel]. Somewhat phantasmagorical novel about a young fellow, the bastard son of… a sailor, who grows up in a grimy quayside London cul-de-sac and falls in love with a "slum-sprite" girl whose lowlife father runs the titular pub. Returning some years later from military service, he finds that she's run off and become a celebrated chanteuse; he tracks her down to Rio, but she denies her younger identity, which of course forces him to spend the rest of the book trying to win her back. The New York Times reviewer, although admiring of the writer's style, was somewhat nonplussed by the novel, calling it "a novel from Mars . . . a strange creation -- terse, elliptical, obscure, peculiarly foreshortened" -- and yet "a rich and varied dish, succinctly portioned out and well flavored with excitement." "Simon Jesty" was apparently a pseudonym, but for whom, I dunno. The author's entire literary output (at least under that name) seems to have consisted of this novel and one other, "River Niger," published in 1935; the only possible clue to his identity is some kind of undefined connection with T.E. Lawrence, who provided a strange sort of preface to the latter book based on an advance reading of the manuscript. Great noir-ish jacket illustration by the great Arthur Hawkins Jr. Illustrated by (dj design) Arthur Hawkins Jr. (ilustrador).

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. First Edition. First Impression of "this deservedly forgotten novel." (O'Brien) With a prefatory letter by T. E. Lawrence. Crown 8vo: (188 x 120): [8],11-287,[1]pp, with three publisher's promotions laid in. Original saffron linen, spine decorated and lettered in scarlet and French blue, top edge stai…ned faded French blue, wanting the dust jacket. A spectacular unread survival of the author's second book, virtually flawless, tight, square, and clean throughout. O'Brien A163. Lawrence was asked to comment on this novel's suitability for publication. His report was less than favorable ("Jesty's world is incredibly small. It holds only about eight named characters who bump together whether they stay put or wander abroad. Wilkie Collins and his generation flourished on coincidences but Jesty out-Victoria's them. He has not one but twenty incredible coincidences"), but the publisher rather curiously decided to publish the book, with Lawrence's report as a preface. N. B. With few exceptions (always identified), we only stock books in exceptional condition, with dust jackets carefully preserved in archival, removable mylar sleeves. All orders are packaged with care and posted promptly. Satisfaction guaranteed.
