first hardback edition - with autograph material
BOND, Edward.
Saved.
London, Methuen, 1969.
Loosely inserted are three postcards written by the author to British literary critic, biographer, poet, reviewer, and magazine critic Ian Hamilton. This friendly correspondence gives an insight into a warm but professional friendship between the two men of literature.
The first postcard dated '3 May 1966' reads: 'Dear Mr Hamilton, Thank you for your letter. I should be pleased to take part in a discussion at Cheltenham. Any day in October - but I presume you will let me know the day well in advance. Yours faithfully, Edward Bond.' Each postcard contains similar professional material.
A fascinating correspondence between two twentieth-century literary figures discussing the biography of Bond, his work and authorship, and other general arrangements. These are incredibly scarce letters in highly collectible condition.
First hardback edition; 8vo; internally fine; publisher's black cloth, silver gilt lettering to spine, with the unclipped pictorial dust-jacket, light marks to panels, rear panel slightly rubbed, minor edge-wear, else a near-fine example; with three autograph postcards to Ian Hamilton.
