Edition de luxe of P.R. Stephensen's biting political satire, in which he mocks the Conservative politician Sir William Joynson-Hicks, who was well-known for his authoritarianism, his campaigns against Communism, and his attempted suppression of what he saw as the indecent literature of the roaring twenties, including Radclyffe Hall's lesbian novel, The Well of Loneliness (1928).
