Paper Cover. Zustand: Very Good. Slight dent on front cover. Discolored with age. 35 pages.

First Edition. First impression. Octavo (22cm); orange publisher's cloth, titled in gilt on spine; 384pp; 9 unnumbered leaves of photographic plates (halftones). A bright, clean copy, Near Fine, lacking the scarce dustwrapper. With the bookplate of American meat-packing magnate J. Ogden Armour (1863-1927) and the ownership signature of his wife, Lola Sheldon (aka "Lolita") Armour. A very nice copy of a book usually found well-worn, the orange cloth being notoriously susceptible to soiling. Curiously, J. Ogden Armour had been dead two years before this memoir was published - it is odd but by no means unprecedented that his widow continued to insert his handsome bookplate into works acquired after his death. A memoir of Duncan's fertile but turbulent period in the Soviet Union, written by her disciple and adopted daughter. Duncan - who had been a vocal supporter of the Revolution, sometimes to the consternation of her American friends - lived in Moscow from 1920 to 1924, a period during which she founded a school of dance and physical culture and was briefly married to the avant-garde poet Sergei Yesenin.…

Original red cloth, spine lettered in yellow, sunflower design on front cover in yellow and green, fore edge untrimmed. With dust jacket.
