Jean Rhys’s masterpiece. A fine copy of the original British edition in a fine unclipped dust jacket. The cover has a couple of tiny creases, and otherwise looks practically new. Red boards denote first printing. Contents are fresh and clean. No pastedowns. Accompanied by a bright dust jacket presenting a continuous illustration of the estate garden in the Windward Islands with the figures of Antoinette and Rochester. Slight edge wear, otherwise near fine. An important book daringly written as a prequel to Jane Eyre that opened up new possibilities for writers.
