Beschreibung

First Edition. Hardcover. Signed by Author. Signed by E.M. Forster. With provenance from journalist and playwright Jesse George Murray. First American edition, later printing of the 1927 issue. Octavo (5 1/2" x 7 1/2") 250 pp. Bound in the publisher s original black cloth with gilt lettering to the spine, which is rubbed but legible. A solid copy internally, clean and sound. Signed by E.M. Forster in black ink on the title page. With the ownership stamp of Jesse George Murray, Chicago newspaperman, playwright, and author. Murray was editor of the Weiner Kurier, an American-run newspaper in postwar Austria, and later press attaché at the U.S. Embassy in Vienna. Upon his return to the United States, he became a well-known columnist for the Chicago American, contributing the daily "George Murray s Chicago" column and working through the paper s evolution into Chicago Today. First delivered as a series of lectures at Trinity College, Cambridge in 1927, ASPECTS OF THE NOVEL is Forster s seminal meditation on the art of fiction exploring elements such as plot, character, prophecy, and pattern with wit, clarity, and enduring insight. In the original black and green dust jacket (price-clipped), with only minimal wear, light aging, and a few minor tears an attractive survival of a fragile jacket. An association copy of Forster s influential work on narrative form, enriched by a notable journalistic connection.
