    Hardcover. Condition: Near fine. Dust Jacket Condition: fine. First Edition. Tall 8vo (25.5cm). Limited to 500 copies, of which this is number 311.

With publisher's prospectus laid in, along with a Greene related newspaper clipping which notes that Greene enjoyed a romantic relationship with Glover, a stage designer, for some nine years.…
