Description:
First edition, limited print run. Edith Sitwell was a British poet and critic. Sitwell equated quietness in the female artist as a failure of female nerve: "a woman's problem in writing poetry is different to a man's... I had to learn everything –learn, amongst other things, not to be timid... And I think that I started getting the thing into very strict limits it might bear the marks of a return to timidity." [Telegraph] This work was the author's first work and part of a print run of around 500, and it was extremely well received. "But in all of these poems one thing is clear. They come from within. Miss Sitwell does not describe, she lives in her verse."Softcover, 8vo, 19 pages. Original wraps. Edges are worn, with some slight tearing. Spine is slightly worn nevertheless, binding is holding tightly together. Some fading on the cover. Very slight foxing throughout, but overall in good condition.

Folded into the form of a letter, the work was letterpress printed in wraps of handmade "combat paper" made from military uniforms. The author says: "Some time ago-maybe a year, maybe two? I had a conversation with some of my Combat Paper brothers (well, the kids call them their combat paper uncles, so it follows
) that led to me writing the poem "Quartering." Which was informed by them, of course, and by all the rooms I'm in, and by imagining what is really required of all the caregivers I love.
