Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. I am not sure what to make of this little book. There is little information to identify the date or edition of this publication. Some other sellers have stated that the fact the words "Printed in France" indicate that it is the 2nd edition from 1936. OThers have mentioned the Shakespeare edition from 1929 and the notation on the back overleaf of its printing in Chartres Frances on 5-1929 (stated) as indicating a first edition. I simply don't know so will let the description and pictures speak for themselves. The one thing I am sure of is it a very scarce little work! Book is very good in blue cloth boards with golden lettering on the spine. The front board has a couple of brown stains that look a bit like chocolate on it. There is very light rubbing at the bottom of the spine. Other than that and some toning of the outside of the rough cut pages, a great copy, worthy of any collection!

First limited British edition of this collection of critical essays and two letters on James Joyce's book Finnegans Wake. Small octavo, original publisher's cloth. Boldly signed by Samuel Beckett and Marcel Brion on the half-title page, and additionally signed by Beckett above the title of his essay. Samuel Beckett and Marcel Brion both personally knew James Joyce and were early defenders of his experimental work 'Finnegans Wake.' Beckett, a close associate of Joyce in Paris, assisted him with research and contributed an essay to 'Our Exagmination.' Marcel Brion, though more distant, also knew Joyce and played a key role in promoting Finnegans Wake to a French audience, offering interpretive insights that helped frame its reception within European modernism. He also contributed an essay to 'Our Exagmination.' One of 96 numbered copies, this example is unnumbered. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Letters of Protest by G.V.L. Slingsby and Vladimir Dixon. From the collection of Robert Duncan. Rare. Our Exagmination Round His Factification for Incamination of Work in Progress (1929) is a landmark critical volume that offers some of the earliest responses to James Joyceâs Finnegans Wake, then still unpublished and known only as Work in Progress. Comprising essays by a range of writersâ"including Samuel Beckett, William Carlos Williams, and Stuart Gilbertâ"the collection attempts to grapple with the experimental form, linguistic density, and philosophical ambition of Joyceâs evolving text. While some essays offer praise and others express bafflement, the volume as a whole reflects the modernist fascination with Joyceâs radical departure from conventional narrative.
