Hardback. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. This copy is bound in blue cloth covered boards with gilt titling to the spine which is sun darkened. A dust wrapper is not present. Alfred Edgar Coppard (4 January 1878 - 13 January 1957) was an English writer, noted for his influence on the short story form, and poet. Coppard was born the son of a tailor and a housemaid in Folkestone, and had little formal education. Coppard grew up in difficult, poverty-stricken circumstances; he later described his childhood as "shockingly poor" and Frank O'Connor described Coppard's early life as "cruel". He left school at the age of nine to work as an errand boy for a Jewish trouser maker in Whitechapel during the period of the Jack the Ripper murders. In the early 1920s, and still unpublished, he was in Oxford and a leading light of a literary group, the New Elizabethans, who met in a pub to read Elizabethan drama. W. B. Yeats sometimes attended the meetings. At this period he met Richard Hughes and Edgell Rickword, amongst others. Coppard was a member of the Independent Labour Party for a period. Coppard's fiction was influenced by Thomas Hardy and on its initial publication, favourably compared to that of H. E. Bates. Coppard's work enjoyed a surge in popularity in the US after his Selected Tales was chosen as a selection by the Book of the Month Club. Ref TT6.
