Violet, as the eternal feminine, cultivated a passive role, pleasure-seeking and victimized, while Vita assumed the masculine role, cross-dressing in public, fulfilling Violet's preference for a "fierce," "brutal," "carnal," and "unscrupulous scoundrel," a "Prince of Romance." * A NEAR VG+ copy only reduced to VG by slight shelf wear and tanning. n.

Octavo softcover (VG); all our specials have minimal description to keep listing them viable. They are at least reading copies, complete and in reasonable condition, but usually secondhand; frequently they are superior examples. Ordering more than one book may reduce your overall postage costs.
