First Edition of Anthony Powell's At Lady Molly's
First edition of this classic work in the author’s 'Dance to the Music of Time' series. Octavo, original cloth. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Broom-Lynne. Housed in a custom half morocco and chemise clamshell box.
At Lady Molly's is the fourth volume in Anthony Powell's twelve-novel sequence, A Dance to the Music of Time. Winner of the James Tait Black Memorial Prize 1957, At Lady Molly's is set in England of the mid-1930s and is essentially a comedy of manners, but in the background, the rise of Hitler and of worldwide Fascism are not ignored. The driving theme of At Lady Molly's is married life; marriages – as practiced or mooted – among the narrator's (Nick Jenkins) acquaintances in bohemian society and the landed classes are pondered. Meanwhile, the career moves of various characters are advanced, checked or put on hold. The portrait of the aristocratic Tolland family is sourced in part from Powell's own in-laws, the Pakenhams.
