About This Item
Redding Ridge, CT: Black Swan Books, 1995. First Edition. Signed and inscribed by the author / editor Louis L. Martz to fellow professor and author, Donald L. Kaufman, best known for his studies on the work of Norman Mailer. Inscribed: “For Donald, ‘ancient friend...Now I remember that you built me a special’ regard for modern literature, Louis.” Fine copy in a fine dust jacket. From the rear panel of the dust jacket by L.D. Clark, editor of the Cambridge edition of The Plumed Serpent: “Written in 1923 but never carried beyond typescript, Quetzalcoatl is an earlier and much different version of Lawrence’s Mexican novel, The Plumed Serpent. Since the appearance of Mr. Noon a few years ago, Quetzalcoatl has been the only full-length work by Lawrence to remain unpublished. This fascinating novel, with meticulous and an illuminating introduction by Louis Martz, is now presented to readers of Lawrence for the first time.”
