ONE OF 20 COPIES ('S') reserved for the contributors (from an overall edition of 135), signed by Baskin and Fowles, the nine woodcut plates and title-page printed in black and pale tan, text in Bembo type, printed on mould-formed Somerset paper, front pastedown with Fowles' engraved bookplate - his name framed by foliage, magpies and an owl, pp. [iv], 104, folio, publisher's cream Japanese cloth, upper board with blind-stamped cross, fore-edge untrimmed, backstrip with a few pale spots, linen slipcase, backstrip with printed label edged with silver, very good. A handsome edition, Baskin's highly expressionistic images equal to Lawrence's text - his final novel, originally published by Black Sun Press in Paris in 1929 as The Escaped Cock, which describes with unflinching realism Christ's resurrection and painful final days on earth. The commentary by Fowles, who had long cited Lawrence as a major influence ('[I have] discovered a deep recrudescence of sympathy for his almost metaphysical attitude to the now' - Vipond 1999:201) acknowledges the writer's political and stylistic shortcomings, but defends his ability to directly convey a true awareness of being, describing the work as symbolic fiction or parable which should be read 'by someone fully aware of the despairing, almost hectic seriousness with which Lawrence saw mankind's deep-rooted psychological and emotional problems.' (Commentary) [with:] FOWLES (John) Commentary on The Man Who Died, [Covelo, California: The Yolla Bolly Press, 1992], ONE OF 50 COPIES for private distribution, a few passages marked in margin in red, presumably by Fowles, [ii], 14, folio, publisher's grey wrappers, cover with printed label edged with gold, very good. A separately issued version of the text included in the work above.
