Susan Miles was the pen name of Ursula Wyllie Roberts (1887-1975). The niece of Newlyn School painter, William Titcomb, she published several slim volumes of poetry under that pen name, Annotations being the second, after Dunch (1918). Harold Munro, in his often harsh Some Contemporary Poets (1920) spoke of her poetry positively and Herbert Palmer described her as 'one [of] the most original' in his 1938 study of post-Victorian poetry. As Ursula Roberts she also wrote several pamphlets on feminist themes, including "The Cause of Purity" and "Women's Suffrage". The verse novel, Lettice Delmer, was first published in 1958 and reissued by Persephone Books in 2000. The L S Stebbing referred to in the inscription is likely Lizzie Susan Stebbing, a prominent British philosopher - the first women to hold a philosophy chair in the UK, and first female President of Humanists UK. Stebbing was indeed a friend: she died in the same month as the inscription is dated.

In den WarenkorbFIRST EDITION, a few faint spots, pp. 56, crown 8vo, original quarter grey cloth, boards of patterned paper, red printed label to upper board, slight wear at corners, borders slightly faded and upper board bowing slightly, edges untrimmed and slightly toned, very good. Inscribed by the author on the flyleaf: 'Janet Cookson, with… gratitude and all good wishes from the author, Christmas 1950'. Her second collection; the first, 'Dunch' (Blackwell, 1918), drew positive notices from T.S. Eliot in The Egoist (he would later praise her novel in verse, 'Lettice Delmer') and Harold Monro. Active in various causes, including pacifism and women's rights, she had earlier published a pamphlet, 'The Cause of Purity and Women's Suffrage', under her own name in 1912 - but the majority of her work was under the Miles pseudonym.
