TILL WE HAVE FACES

First edition, first printing. Publisher's original blue cloth with titles in gilt to the spine, in the John R. Biggs illustrated dustwrapper. An excellent very near fine copy, the binding square and firm, the cloth bright and fresh. The contents, with a previous owner's name to the front endpaper are otherwise clean throughout. Complete with the lightly rubbed and nicked dustwrapper that has a few light foxing spots to the extreme edge of the flaps and some brown marks to the rear panel. Correctly priced 15s net to the front flap. An attractive example.

The author considered this novel, a retelling of the myth of Cupid and Psyche, to be his most accomplished work, an opinion echoed by J. R. R. Tolkien.
