This limited edition contains his early prose and poetry from 1908-1912, between ages 20-24, primarily while living in England. Edited by Matthew Bruccoli, with an introductory essay by Jacques Barzun. No. 374 of a limited edition of 500. Octavo. Cream-colored paper boards with red leatherette spine. Enclosed in red leatherette slip case. Gilt title to spine and gilt quotes to both boards. Tightly bound. Clean interior including frontis with tissue guard. Red edges.
