Beschreibung:

Four Quartets T.S. Eliot, 1943 ELIOT, T. S. (1888-1965). Four Quartets. New York: Harcourt, Brace and Company, 1943. First edition, first impression with "first American edition" on the verso of the title-page. Although the first impression consisted of 4165 copies, 3377 were destroyed because the margins were incorrectly set as a result of unskilled war-time labor. The remaining 788 copies were used to preserve copyright and for review purposes. Connolly ranks Four Quartets among the great works of the modern era, calling it the “high point of [Eliot’s] technique”. Connolly, The Modern Movement 92; Gallup A43a. Octavo. Original cloth; printed dust jacket (some restoration to spine panel ends and extremities of panels); custom box.
