First Edition Signed by ROY FULLER and from his library. Dustrwrappers mylar covered with some tears and aging. Red cloth slightly edge faded. 8vo, 325 pages. Bookplate. Roy Broadbent Fuller (11 February 1912 - 27 September 1991) was an English writer, known mostly as a poet. He was born at Failsworth, Lancashire; His father, born at Fulham at Caithness, Leopold worked his way up to the position of works manager (also later becoming a director) of a rubber-proofing mill at Hollinwood, Greater Manchester, dying in 1920. Fuller was subsequently raised in Blackpool, Lancashire, and educated at Blackpool High School. Fuller was articled to a solicitor in 1928, in which year his first poem was published in the Sunday Referee. After qualifying as a solicitor in 1933, he worked for The Woolwich Equitable Building Society, ending his career as head of the legal department, before serving in the Royal Navy from 1941 to 1946. Poems (1939) was his first book of poetry. He also began to write fiction, including crime novels, in the 1950s, and wrote several volumes of memoirs. As a poet he became identified, on stylistic grounds, with The Movement. He was Professor of Poetry at Oxford University from 1968 to 1973. From 1972 to 1979 he was a member of the Board of Governors of the BBC. The poet John Fuller is his son. In 1966 Anthony Powell dedicated to Fuller his novel The Soldier's Art, the eighth volume of his masterwork, A Dance to the Music of Time. He received a C.B.E. and Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry in 1970 and the Cholmondeley Award from the Society of Authors in 1980.…
