Book
Paperback. reprint. The Butcher Shop first appeared in 1926. Despite big overseas sales it was banned in New Zealand and later Australia for being disgusting, indecent and communistic  in other words for promoting revolutionary ideas about women and for a bold portrayal of the brutality of farm life. On one level, the novel is a fast-paced account of how passion and jealousy destroy the lives of a rich and cultured farming family; on another it is a fierce polemic for the freedom of women, which in its frankness was years ahead of its time.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good+. First American Edition. (no dust jacket) [general wear to edges and corners of covers, lower corners slightly bumped, spine somewhat faded, age-toning and light soiling to edges of text block, one-time owner's single name in ink on front endpaper]. A novel embodying "the conflict of two ways of living -- the sophistication of city civilization, and the clean simplicity of the Australian bush." A scarce work (also published under the title "Taipo") by this New Zealand-born writer (1894-1962), who later became a prominent speaker and activist on behalf of the Communist Party of Australia, and was well-known for her outspoken opinions on sexuality and women's rights. This novel, about a swell fellow from the outback who inherits a fortune, and is subsequently "caught by a worldly woman attracted by his money and his physical strength," is concerned, as was most of Devanny's fiction, with the economic, social and sexual dynamics at work in male-female relationships. [NOTE that the quoted passages here are from the book's dust jacket, which is NOT present on this particular copy.] Devanny's first novel, "The Butcher Shop," had been banned in New Zealand, Australia, Germany and parts of the U.S.; in 1929 she moved with her family to Australia, where she was deeply involved with the Communist Party until she was expelled in 1941, ostensibly for "moral degeneracy." She later lamented that her devotion to the Party and its causes had prevented her from realizing her full potential as a writer (although she did publish over a dozen books, both fiction and non-fiction).
