About This Item
London: Chatto & Windus, 1896. Second Edition. Second Edition. 8vo, 351 pp + 32-page undated publisher's catalogue inserted at rear. Publisher's black cloth, spine panel titled in gold, white and blue floral endpapers. Title page printed in red and black. This Second Edition is identical in format to the First Edition, published less than a year earlier, and quite scarce, more so in nice condition, as our. Lilith, a rather extravagant fantasy novel, explores the journey into another world with a librarian who takes the form of a raven. Cloth slightly worn at head & heel of spine and corner tips; a few small marks, spine panel with a slight lean. A very good, tight copy with both inner hinges in tact.
