Description: Bound in beautiful blocked leather, and signed by introducer Colm Tóibín and artist Audrey Benjaminsen, this stunning limited edition will stand out on any collector’s bookshelf. Colm Tóibín has had a lifelong fascination with Henry James and his writings on the subject, including the prize-winning novel, The Master, show remarkable insight into James’s work. In his exclusive introduction, Tóibín explores the background behind the story as well as James's ability to create abject horror from inference. Our edition also includes James’s own preface to the book, and American multi-media artist Audrey Benjaminsen lends her fantastical, dream-inspired genius to six beautiful paintings that further contort James’s ambiguous reality and disorientate the reader.Bound in blocked goatskin leatherSet in Columbus.168 pagesFrontispiece and 5 full-colour illustrationsIntegrated black & white decorations, chapter headings and tailpiecesDouble endpapers, one set with signed and hand-numbered limitation label tip, one set printedGilded edgesPrinted cloth slipcase8¾˝ x 5½˝SIGNED BY COLM TOIBIN & ILLUSTRATOR AUDREY BEJAMINSEN.
