Books

The scarce First American Edition ( from English sheets) of Owens' first book. Some loss of material at the head of the spine, some wear at the bottom of same. One corner bumped with modest abrasion . Covers age darkened. Some foxing to the frontispiece and title page. Overall about Very Good. No jacket. Small Bookplate of a Margery L. Jenkins and a gift inscription from what looks like Leo Pasvolsky to Ms. Jenkins. Pasvolsky was an Economist and State Department official who did at least some writing on Literary Affairs in his early days as a journalist, so I assume it's the same guy! ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall.

A posthumously published collection of Owen's poetry on the subject of war and its brutal realities.
