Description: D’ARTAGNAN BOOKS This is a signed first edition in good condition. It was published by Gerald Duckworth & Co. Ltd in 1959. 'The fables contained in this book have been collected or invented over the period of the last ten years. I have called them Surrealist, because it seems to me that they bear comparison in a light-hearted way with the enigmatic art of Paul Klee, the bizarre landscapes of Salvador Dali, or the haunted forests of Max Ernst. They are not silly stories or loony stories. They contain a great truth for our time and that s why the folklore of our time inspired them.' This is a 1st Edition / 2nd Printing (States - 'Reprinted 1959'). Condition: Book - Good - rubbing/bumping/wear to the corners, edges and covers, a lean and some tearing to the spine, marking, staining, discolouration and creasing to the covers, slight bumping to a few page corners, some marking and discolouration/foxing to the page edges and a few pages and soft tanning to the pages.
