Description
Waugh (Evelyn) The Loved One, number 149 of 250 copies signed by the author and illustrator, illustrations by Stuart Boyle, original green buckram, original printed glacine dust-jacket, light browning to spine and margins of panels, some very minor chipping to head and foot, small internal chip to upper panel, but overall a near fine example of an extremely fragile jacket, t.e.g., others uncut, [1948]; and a copy of Pictorial Forest Lawn, 8vo & folio (2)
⁂ Pictorial Forest Lawn is the brochure for Forest Lawn Cemetery, the inspiration for Whispering Glades in The Loved One. A quick glance through the brochure amply demonstrates why Waugh felt it was ripe for satire.
