Description: Herbert G. de Lisser Psyche London: Ernest Benn Limited [1952]. First edition.8vo (5 1/4 in x 7 1/2 in). 224 pages. A novel, the story of a slave woman and her "colored" (half-white) daughter in Jamaica, by the popular Jamaica-born author. Very good in boards and good dust jacket. As seen in the photographs that accompany this listing, there are two ownership stamps on the front endpapers, as well as a price stamp. The dust jacket is worn and lightly soiled, with small chips missing at the extremities, and some closed tears and fold marks. The pages are clean and unmarked, and the binding is tight. The front and back images of the covers were scanned. The remaining images are digital photographs that were taken in natural light with an iPhone 6s. The images have not been retouched or adjusted in any way, other than being cropped. As a long-time bibliophile, I know how important the condition and edition of an item are to a serious collector. In all my listings, I strive to provide complete descriptions that do not neglect to mention any faults, and to provide photographs that illustrate those faults, along with images of the item's exterior and its title and copyright pages to confirm that the edition is as claimed. My goal is NO UNPLEASANT SURPRISES. If you receive an item from me that fails to meet this standard, you may return it for a full refund, and I will pay the return postage. I will carefully pack and ship your purchase in a cardboard wrapper or box to ensure it is not damaged in transit. I have collected first editions of West Indian Literature for over twenty-five years. I am currently in the process of cataloging and listing for sale books from my collection, but that will take some time. Please feel free to email me your specific wants, and I will be happy to provide detailed quotes of available items. [Email: patrick (at) westindiesbooks.com]
