Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. This is an unusual association copy from the estate of Martin Secker, publisher (of Secker and Warburg), purchased by an intermediary dealer who sold it on to The Petersfield Bookshop, Hampshire, who then sold it on to me. This is Graham Greene's personal copy, signed by him to the front endpaper. A write up of the book from a modern reprint reads: "Following in the tradition of Don Quixote, Earl Lavender is the story of two impecunious gentlemen who run away from their conventional lives, style themselves 'Earl Lavender' and 'Lord Brumm', and set out to preach the new creed of Evolution. Their hilarious romp across London leads them to all sorts of strange adventures, such as a wild hansom cab chase, a sojourn among a subterranean society of flagellants, and the discovery of the evolutionary 'Missing Link'. A key Decadent text, Earl Lavender (1895) is also Davidson's response to what he saw as some of the more ridiculous ideas and behaviours of the age." The book is in overall GOOD condition, with some rubbing to extremities and wear at corners and base of spine. The pages are mellowed and clean. The Aubrey Beardsley frontispiece is present. In all, this is an unusual association copy, connected to one of the great writers of the 20th Century. Excellent. AUBREY BEARDSLEY (illustrator). ASSOCIATION COPY. Book.…
