FIRST EDITION. Half title, portrait front., 2pp ads. Partially uncut in orig. green buckram, paper label; spine darkened, label sl. chipped not affecting text, lower inner margins sl. marked. Ink inscription on leading pastedown: 'C.W. from F.S.R. D.N. 1924'. Lord Alfred Douglas, 1870-1945, nicknamed Bosie, poet, translator and author, best remembered now for his high-profile relationship with Oscar Wilde. Douglas includes a short prefatory note stating that 'the poems in this collection, dating from about 1890 to the present year 1919, are printed in something approximating to chronological order. Consequently readers are invited to note that the best poems are not, generally speaking, to be found in the beginning of the volume.' By 1919, Douglas had converted to Catholicism and publicly condemned Wilde and homosexuality; his homoerotic early poems including Two Loves is conspicuously absent from this volume. A. Gladys Kernot is presumably the New Zealand poet of Chrysanthemums. Bestandsnummer des Verk�ufers 88202
