Item #618 MEREDITH. George Meredith, Siegfried SASSOON.

MEREDITH.

London: Constable & Co., Ltd, [1948]. First edition. Octavo. Teal cloth, silver spine. Collogravure frontispiece portrait. Title page in red and black. 269,[1] pp. Very good; in a good unclipped typographic and decorated dust jacket with some chips and closed tears, mostly confined to the top edge.

First edition, first impression. Sassoon, a self-described "Meredithian" from his youth forward, reread the entire Meredith corpus before undertaking this project, and he successfully brings the man, the poet, and the novelist alive for a new century -- the twentieth, and now the twenty-first.
