Description:
London: Mrs Marshall's Office, 1952. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Good. A fascinating typescript of Greene's first play, The Living Room, from Mrs Marshall's Office (London) dated Sept 15 1952. 82 pp. The Living Room was first performed in English at the Royal Lyceum Theatre in Edinburgh in February 1953 before transferring to the West End in April where it enjoyed a two-year long run. The play was a huge success and opened on Broadway in 1954 where it was equally acclaimed. The Living Room was first published in the Swedish language in 1952 and in English in 1953. Cannot accurately be described as a fair-copy since there are differences in both stage directions and dialogue between this draft and the final published versions. Probably an early rehearsal script, the timing would fit with the opening night being in February but that is purely conjecture. Embossed stamp at the title page and printed label at the rear. Ribbon-tied in plain pink card covers which are a bit battered with some loss. The… Read More

Straight, tight and clean with no wear or markings in bright, pictorial card covers, no dustjacket as issued. The pieces in this collection, written between 1956 and 1961 and including short fiction, a radio play, and a stunning early novel, offer startling insights into Cohens imagination and creative process. Cohen explores themes that would permeate his later work, from shame and unworthiness to sexual desire in all its sacred and profane dimensions to longing, whether for love, family, freedom, or transcendence.
