First edition in the original dustjacket. A very good first edition in the original dust jacket. 'Two new long poems and some songs are contained in this volume. Miss Sitwell has created nothing more powerful than the macabre and terrifying beauty of Gold Coast Customs and nothing more haunting than her new elegy Metamorphosis' (dustjacket).

First edition; 8vo; light spotting to prelims, slight toning to leaves; publisher's black cloth, orange lettering to spine and upper cover, with the unclipped pictorial dust-jacket, slightly marked and toned, light wear to edges, with NPG tissue wrapping with printed label, overall a very good copy.
