London: William Heinemann Ltd,, 1951-75. The English Proust First editions, first impressions, of the complete set of the author's celebrated novel sequence, likened by Evelyn Waugh to "a continuous frieze in high relief, deep cut and detailed" (Waugh, p. 548). Covering more than 50 years in the life of Nicholas Jenkins, the novel "is less about Jenkins than about the world he belongs to, in which the more raffish elements of the establishment commingle with the upper echelons of bohemia, the usual catalysts being their wives, mistresses, and lovers. Observing how these incoherent bodies interact, and the bizarre unions that result, Jenkins discerns a pattern dictated by the rhythm of life - hence the theme of the novel, which is that its characters, like the Seasons in Poussin's painting, are engaged in a ritual dance to the music of time" (ODNB). Twelve volumes, octavo. Attractively bound in recent dark blue morocco, spine lettered and decorated in gilt, covers ruled in gilt, marbled endpapers,… Read More

London: Heinemann, 1951. First editions, first printings. Published by William Heinemann in London between 1951 and 1975. This is a set of very good (or better) copies in twelve volumes. 'A Buyer's Market' in the first issue dust wrapper with wider flaps. Each of the volumes are in similar condition, so will be described as one unless there are other points to note. The dust wrappers are frontally clean and not toned but suffer from some slight separation to the top of the spines, with some light rubbing at the bottom edges. The rear panels are generally marked by handling, but certain ones, particularly the seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth and eleventh volumes are clean. The first title, 'A Question of Upbringing' has a small portion of restorative repair to the foot of the dust wrapper. 'A Buyers Market' has been price clipped, but the others have not. The internals are clean throughout, with only 'Temporary Kings' and 'Hearing Secret Harmonies' having some… Read More
