18 cm, Softcover / Paperback, Condition: Gut. XXIX, 353 p., Zustand: Exemplar in gutem Zustand, Ränder und / oder Cover etwas berieben. Text, Sprache: Englisch, Joseph Conrad ; Introduction by C.B. Cox ; notes by Norman Sherry. The three stories in this edition, 'Youth', 'Heart of Darkness' and 'The End of the Tether' illustrate conflicts in Conrad's personality. 'Youth' is an autobiographical account of his first exhilarating journey to the East and exudes confidence. In it we see the steadfast and energetic lover of the sea that was one side of Conrad. 'The End of the Tether', a tale of a captain who compromises his integrity for the sake of his daughter, is full of the power of evil; here we see the other side of Conrad that was often moody, neurotic and given to suicidal despair. In 'Heart of Darkness', however the two sides of his temperament are fully expressed, and we see the seaman's code of discipline and work coming into conflict with the dark secret areas of the imagination.

Complete magazine: 16pp., folio. In good condition, on lightly-aged high-acidity paper. Three-quarters of the magazine is devoted to a catalogue by the publisher. It's catchy subtitle is 'A Quarterly devoted to the Printing of Unpublished Manuscripts and Original Articles of Archaeological, Historical, Literary, Sociological and Theological interest.' Curle's front-page article covers more than one-and-a-half pages, with the following prefatory note: 'The Article printed below is not only interesting in itself, but important as being in the nature of a Supplement to the author's book on the Ray Society which is just about to be issued by the Society at 10/6, and is advertised in this Catalogue. It is full of facts and ideas not mentioned in the book and should in its pamphlet form, be in possession of every owner of "The Ray Society: a Bibliographical History," by Richard Curle. The pamphlet, with a full-page frontispiece of John Ray (different from the portrait in the Ray Society's Bibliography), may be obtained from us at 2/6.' Curle explains that as a result of 'considered judgment, lack of space, pure ignorance, sheer forgetfulness', omissions have occurred to his book, which he will attempt to correct in what is a 'sort of brief and fragmentary Supplement. Other articles in the number are: '1821 Letter from New York', 'A Pedigree Book by H. T. Kirby' and '17th C. Latin Verse'.
