Description
London: George Allen & Unwin Ltd, 1933. Cloth. Very Good. WARMLY INSCRIBED IN YEAR-OF-PUBLICATION BY COUNTESS ALEXANDRA TOLSTOY on the front free endpaper. A solid copy to boot of the 1933 1st UK edition, translated into English from its native Russian by Elena Varneck. Tight and VG in its light-green cloth, with mild soiling to the front panel, light fading along the spine and very mild bowing to the covers. Light foxing to the preliminaries as well and an even cut across the front free endpaper's top-edge, just above Countess Tolstoy's inscription. Octavo, a number of crisp black-and-white photographs complementing the text. Countess Alexandra Tolstoy (1884-1979) was Leo Tolstoy's youngest daughter and his secretary to boot and, as such, was perfectly positioned to write this memoir of the final years of one of the giants of all of Russian literature.
