Book First Edition Signed
First edition. Inscribed by the author to the front endpaper: "Dear Mrs Crow with much love from Paddy. (Stella Gibbons). October 25 1946.". The recipient was Gibbons' close friend, Stella Crow, who she met at the North London Collegiate School for Girls, "Paddy" being Gibbon's nickname at the time. Crow was the dedicatee of the 1944 novel, 'The Bachelor'. The book is firmly bound in clean blue cloth lettered in silver, the extremities are slightly bumped and rubbed. The text block is slightly toned and foxed. The dust jacket is the original and not price clipped, it is a little toned, foxed and marked, with minor chips and short closed tears to the edges, the spine has faded. A novel that manages to quite comprehensively capture the sense of a nation in flux, all the chaos and uncertainty of war, the changing nature of class and culture, but does so by focussing on all the minute details and the everyday events, allowing casual, offhand references such as: "Phew! Doesn't it smell of bombs!" to set the scene, while letting the larger set pieces, such as being caught in an air-raid, happen offstage, confident that the reader's attention will be held without the need for excessive dramatic action. First editions are quite readily obtainable, but signed copies of Gibbons' books are uncommon, the few that do surface usually being, as in this instance, inscribed to close friends or family.
