A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, James Joyce

Sixth impression of Joyce’s first novel and one of the defining works of literary modernism. Originally serialized in The Egoist (1914–1915) at the urging of Ezra Pound, British publishers initially proved hesitant, and the novel first appeared in book form in New York in 1916. The Egoist Press republished it in the United Kingdom in 1917 and Jonathan Cape would then take over at the fourth printing (1924), resetting the type. Early impressions of Portrait remain increasingly difficult to obtain, particularly in original dust jackets. 

London: Jonathan Cape, 1928. Publisher's original orange cloth, spine lettered in black; pp. 228. About very good in an about very good, price-clipped dust jacket. Binding sturdy with a slight lean. Light shelfwear and rubbing to boards, minor dampstain to lower front board. Traces of foxing, internally clean. Jacket shows general wear with a few closed tears, minor chipping, spine toned, single tape reinforcement to verso. Protected in archival mylar.
