Add to basketThe recipient Philip Dosse was proprietor of Hansom Books, publisher of a stable of seven arts magazines including 'Books and Bookmen' and 'Plays and Players'. Like Jullian, he would commit suicide. See 'Death of a Bookman' by Sally Emerson, Standpoint magazine, October 2018. The card is in good condition, lightly aged, while th…e four letters are in fair condition, with wear and creasing, one (Item Four) with a few small holes to the leaf caused by a paper clip. None of the items is dated. ONE: ACS. On both sides of a plain card with printed letterhead and no illustration. Signed 'Philippe' and addressed to 'My dear Philip'. 'I would like very much to review Nigel Nicolson book about his mother V. Sackville west ['Portrait of a Marriage', 1973] as I knew very well Violet Trefusis whose love story is the subject of the book'. He asks for 'a fairly long space there is a lot to say some of it very odd and funny'. TWO: ALS. 1p, 12mo. Signed 'Philippe'. 'Yes I would like to write a piece about Violet Trefusis in the same number there will be a review of the Nicolson book I [dout?] Nigel Nicolson will send me the book.' He asks Dosse to 'reproduce the portrait of V. T. par Blanche that is in the book and which I owne [sic]'. Ends: 'When do you want it? / What length?' THREE: ALS. 1p, 12mo. Signed 'Ph. Jullian'. He is enclosing the article on Trefusis, and repeats that it should be 'illustrated by her portrait by J. E. Blanche she gave me and reproduced in the Nicolson book.' Comments: 'Do you know there were many mistakes in the article on Mary of Roumania'. FOUR: ALS. 1p, 12mo. Signed 'Philippe'. He thanks him for advertising his 'Art Nouveau Book' (published in 1974), adding: 'If Bevis Hillier cant review it I suggest you send it to a very intelligent young man just out of Oxford Philip Mansel' (with address). Ends: 'Please send me some amusing book to review or some splendid one for my library'. FIVE: ALS. 1p, 12mo. Signed 'Philippe Jullian'. He is sorry that 'the strike prevented me to send the article on the limericks sooner [presumably Gershon Legman's 'The Limerick'] I hope it is not too late as it is a charming book'.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First UK Printing published by Hutchinson & Co., London in 1952. Large 8vo., brown cloth lettered in gilt to spine; with small device gilt to head, as well as upper board; in the unclipped pictorial dust wrapper designed by Philippe Jullian (16s net)…; as well as decorative endpapers, title, and numerous line drawings in text; frontis photograph of the author with her mother; including author s family tree and facsimile signature beneath preface; THE BOOK an excellent near Fine copy, lightly bumped to spine ends, with previous ownership signature in blue ink to half-title; in the Very Good++ WRAPPER which has a couple of corner creases, nicks, and small closed tears to extremities; rubbed with minor losses to the edges. Scarce, nonetheless, in such condition, with the striking wrapper artwork retaining its brightness. The wrapper is protected in a removable Brodart archival cover. First edition of Violet Trefusis autobiography, in which she covers a life from the first thing I remember , through her Edwardian upbringing as the daughter of Alice Keppel (mistress of King Edward VII), her entry into Parisian aristocratic and literary circles, her interactions with Cocteau and Proust, her return to England during the war, and ending with her mother s death in 1947, though it omits entirely her relationship with Vita Sackville-West - despite being read and edited by Vita in Florence prior to publication. In the introduction, Trefusis writes: 'I have not lied, I have merely omitted, by-passed the truth, whenever unpalatable'. Written in the aftermath of the Second World War, and in the vacuum of both her parent s deaths, the work remains an insightful literary and social portrait of Europe between the wars, and is wonderfully offset by Jullian's charming illustrations. Scarce. More images available on request. Ashton Rare Books welcomes direct contact.
