Description: Poems, by George Meredith, 1925, Charles Scribner's. Wikipedia: George Meredith OM (1828 – 1909) was an English novelist and poet of the Victorian era. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature seven times. His friends in the literary world included, at different times, William and Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Algernon Charles Swinburne, Cotter Morison,[6] Leslie Stephen, Robert Louis Stevenson, George Gissing and J. M. Barrie.Gissing wrote in a letter to his brother Algernon that Meredith's novels were 'of the superlatively tough species'. His contemporary Sir Arthur Conan Doyle paid him homage in the short-story "The Boscombe Valley Mystery", when Sherlock Holmes says to Dr. Watson during the discussion of the case, "And now let us talk about George Meredith, if you please, and we shall leave all minor matters until to-morrow." Oscar Wilde, in his dialogue "The Decay of Lying", implies that Meredith, along with Balzac, is his favourite novelist, saying "Ah, Meredith! Who can define him? His style is chaos illumined by flashes of lightning". Condition:Good+ or better Condition for this poetry volume. Cover shows only very minor general aging, plus tanning/fading of the spine.
