The Well of Loneliness

London: Jonathan Cape, 1928.

First edition, second issue with the corrected "Whips" on page 50, line 13. Bound in publisher's original dark blue cloth lettered in gilt on the spine; lacking the dust jacket. Very Good with light lean to binding, light soiling, light edge and surface wear to cloth, light cigar smoke odor to pages. Hall's book faced a wave of suppression as the plot follows the life of a lesbian, openly portraying her "sexual inversion" as natural during a time when homosexuality was not openly discussed.
