Description

Two volumes. Limited Edition and the First Sloan illustrated Edition. With an introduction by Theodore Drieser and with sixteen original etchings by John Sloan. Limited to 1500 copies signed by John Sloan. Tall 8vo, original speckled cloth with leather spine labels. Fine copy, without the box.

Edizione: somerset maugham?s best known novel and one of the most desirable and appealing books of the limited editions club. these volumes were printed for the club at the yale university press under the supervision carl purington rollins. john sloan?s etched illustrations are a striking addition to maugham?s thinly disguised autobiography. of human bondage describes philip carey?s lonely boyhood in whitstable (which becomes blackstable, as canterbury becomes tercanbury) and his subsequent adventures. carey is handicapped by a club foot, much as maugham was handicapped by a severe stammer.
