GRAVES, Robert. Seven Days in New Crete
GRAVES, Robert. Seven Days in New Crete. London: Cassell. 1949. 8vo. First edition. Publisher’s black cloth lettered in gilt to the spine, in the dust jacket, uncredited. A very good copy, the cloth a little marked, but the binding tight and square. Some mild spots to the fore-edge, with very light scattered foxing to the textblock, with a handful of early leaves slightly kinked at the fore-edges, minor. The dust jacket price-clipped with several small nicks and closed tears to corners, spine tips and some edges, light rubbing to the joints, but still a handsome copy.
A seminal, speculative post-history set in a far-future matriarchal utopia, in which a twentieth century poet compares life in Southern France then and now, and misses the bitter essence of evil.
