Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. 1st Edition. "The Mint : A Miscellany of Literature, Art and Criticism", as edited by Geoffrey Grigson, was published by George Routledge and Sons. It is eclectic in its choices, but that eclecticism managed to include a number of strikingly important writers and thinkers of the immediate post Second World War intellectual Scene. There is a brief blurb on the dust-jacket, from which the following is excerpted : " THE MINT is an international miscellany of humanism, aiming to collect articles, poems, stories which have more than the topicality of the day. Another of its aims is to bring together the divorced couple of our time ? scholarship and original writing." CONTENTS -- * Martin Buber : The Education of Character * W. H. Auden : Four Poems * Seán O'Casey : The Raid * Graham Greene : Convoy to West Africa * Geoffrey Matthews : Five Poems * E. J.
