Description
Edinburgh: T & A Constable, 1890 First edition. OCLC records only three copies in North American libraries. Original red glossy paper boards with pictorial onlay on upper board. Octavo. Illustrated frontispiece, with text "I, even I, am Beatrice" printed on vellum. Twenty engraved plates by Phoebe Traquair. Edges and joints rubbed. Spine is a little faded and has a small tear. Top edge gilt, others uncut. Gilt floral-patterned endpapers. A very good copy. Phoebe Anna Traquair (1852-1936) was an Irish-born artist, and a key figure in the Scottish Arts and Crafts movement. She was best known for her murals, but also practiced embroidery, book-cover tooling, jewelry, and painting. Much of Traquair's work was inspired by the intellectual content found in poetry and epic romances. In 1920, Traquair became one of the first women elected as a member of the Royal Scottish Academy. She gained international recognition, and her art can be found in England, Canada, New Zealand, and the United States. Although her art fell out of fashion in the 1930s, there has since been a revival of interest.

Description
London: Little, Brown and Company, 2001. First Edition. Signed by the Author on title page. Octavo, burgundy boards (hardcover), gilt lettering, ribbon marker, illustrated endpapers, 242 pp. Near Fine, with darkened pages; in a Fine, mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: In 1764, the great Samuel Johnson, irascible genius, unparalleled wit and the toast of all society, is plagued by ill health and has become jaded with his bickering dependants. Suffering from a bout of melancholy, he accepts an introduction to the table of Henry Thrale, a wealthy Southwark brewer, and his vivacious wife Hester. Thus begins an extraordinary relationship that is to last twenty years -- and allows us into a world unknown to James Boswell. As Johnson settles into the generous niche established for him in the Thrales’ crowded and hectic household, he comes increasingly to rely upon Hester Thrale, and their intimate friendship develops into something darker and more ambiguous. The family is drawn into the raucous, chaotic caravan of Johnson’s friends and admirers: Garrick and Goldsmith, Fanny Burney and Joshua Reynolds, sycophants, scholars and drunkards, and it is left to Hester’s neglected oldest daughter, named after her mother but known as Queeney, prodigiously clever, spirited and mocking, to provide her own sharp commentary on the destruction that ensues. Against the brilliant background of Georgian London, According to Queeney candidly and comically tells a story of unrequited love, passion, rejection and possession, revealing the sexual tensions that lie beneath the ordered surface of everyday life.
