Item description from seller

1919 first thus, Toledano 030.1, binding style 2, olive Brodzky endpapers. Lacks jacket. Front joint rubbed, blank paper mounted on front endpaper, apparent portion of absent jacket mounted on half-title page (includes blurb about author and this work). xiii, 263 pp. Introduction by Padraic Colum. James Stephens was an Irish novelist and poet who "brought a fresh and distinctive element into the new Irish literature, an imaginative exuberance that expresses itself in an extravagance of wit, loveliness, and picturesqueness. His writings reveal a prodigality of humor, intuition, and searching thought - and something else, which is even rarer, a deep sense of democracy, a sense of the spiritual equality of all men and women. 'Mary, Mary' is one of his best and most delightful stories. The scene is the gray-colored, friendly capitol Dublin, with its great gray clouds and its poising sea-birds, with its hills and its bay, with its streets that everyone would avoid, and with its other streets that everyone promenades; with its greens and its park and its river-walks - the always friendly Dublin, as seen through the understanding eyes of James Stephens.
