Description
The White Goddess by Robert Graves
A near fine copy of Graves’ classic, The White Goddess, complete with unclipped jacket in fine condition but for slight fading to the spine. Rare first edition book in such condition. No foxing, writing or inscriptions and clean throughout textblock. Boards in very good condition with light fading to spine and show-through of lettering from the dust jacket. Overall a lovely copy of Graves’ seminal, enlightening and far-reaching work of myth, folklore, analytical psychology, poetry and classical literature, which was a major influence on the works of Ted Hughes and Sylvia Plath, the latter identifying herself with the goddess figure. 8vo 430 pp.
