Cloth. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. None (illustrator). A posthumously published collection of short stories by D H Lawrence, copy number 199 of a limited edition of 1600. Nonesuch Press Limited Edition. Richard Aldington called Lawrence, "one of the most original and interesting persons of his time." He is widely regarded as one of the most significant and influential writers of the 20th century. He became known for his contraversial portrayals of sexuality, most notoriously in the novel Lady Chatterly's Lover. It was partly to avoid his public portrayal as a pornographer and partly on account of his delicate health that he returned to Italy, where he died in 1930. This collection was published posthumously. Soon after his death his reputation was rehabilitated. The influential critic F. R. Leavis insisted on his integrity and morality, and did much to place Lawrence's fiction within the "great tradition" of the English novel. These stories were originally written in 1912, when David Garnett, then the son of a publisher, first met Lawrence. He published hem posthumously, along with an introductory reminiscence of that meeting. It is a touching and fit tribute to the stories; concluding his visit Garnett says, "when we stopped and said goodbye he said something about not needing me to repay the money I had borrowed for my fare home. It was dark, there was a smell of flowers, and Lawrence's light feet were noiseless in the dust of the road." This edition was limited to 1600 copies, and is printed on Auvergne hand made paper. This is number 199. Direct from the library of the late Hugh Selbourne MD (1906-1973) a noted book collector and diarist. In the original cloth with the original dustrwapper. Externally excellent with almost no shelf wear. The dustwrapper is sound, just somewhat age-toned and with small closed tears around the head and tail of the spine, and along the top edge of the rear.

In 1911, Lawrence was introduced to Edward Garnett, a publisher's reader who acted as a mentor and became a valued friend, as did his son David. David Garnett wrote the preface to this book, a reminiscence in which he tells that the stories and sketches in Love Among The Haystacks were written by Lawrence in July and August of 1912 and then passed on to Edward Garnett, who tried to place them without success, and then onto him. David had read the book in manuscript form when it was written and had been with Lawrence into 'The Chapel Among the Mountains', had slept out with him in 'The Hay-hut Among the Mountains' and writes of the tickling of the hay, the crashing thunder, and the bitter cold of the winds sweeping off the glaciers that all came back to him.

He had sent them to David Garnett's father the editor Edward Garnett, who failed to get them published at the time. "After Lawrence's death they were brought to me to publish: and they aroused in me vivid memories of my twentieth year" (from David Garnett's reminiscence, p. [v]). Roberts A56a.
