Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Limited Edition, First Thus. Limited Edition, First Thus. Hardcover. "Here, where the world is quiet; / Here, where all trouble seems / Dead winds' and spent waves' riot / In doubtful dreams of dreams." Consider this 1919 luxurious limited edition your invitation to "The Garden of Proserpine" and beyond, through the poetry of Algernon Charles Swinburne (1837-1909). Quarter-bound in vellum and decorated in a gilt-stamped pinecone motif, this is number 388 out of an edition limited to 525 printed at The Complete Press of West Norwood, London for publisher William Heinemann. In turns both scandalous and celebrated during the late Victorian and early Edwardian eras, in his Pre-Raphaelite verse, Swinburne explored provocative subjects: anti-theism in "Hymn to Proserpine," queer desire in "Sapphics" and "Erotion," sadomasochism in "Dolores," suicide in "The Triumph of Time," all of which are included here. Swinburne's queer, subversive, and sonically disarming verse continues to inspire over a century later, as the quoting of the following verse, also from "The Garden of Proserpine," in Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events (and the sick tattoos of a super cute bookseller at a Half Price in Kentucky) attests: "From too much love of living, / From hope and fear set free, / We thank with brief thanksgiving / Whatever gods may be / That no life lives forever; / That dead men rise up never; / That even the weariest river / Winds somewhere safe to sea." 9 1/8" X 6 1/8". ix, 288pp. Edition limited to 525 numbered copies, this being number 388. Quarter-bound in vellum with cream paper over boards, with both upper board and spine titled in gilt with gilt pinecone decoration, gilt top-edge, and bound-in cream satin ribbon placemarker. Mild wear to binding, with surface soiling and scuffing and corners split. A hint of spine at center of text block; binding remains firm, square, and sound. Light foxing and toning at preliminary pages, else clean and unmarked. Title page in green and black. Bookseller's ticket of McDevitt-Wilson's Books, Inc. of New York to rear pastedown.…
