First edition of John Cowper Powys' Atlantis
First edition of Powys' "richest and most sustained" later novel (Cavaliero). Octavo, original cloth. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket.
The theme of this most remarkable novel is suggested by the Homeric poems; for the story concerns the further adventures of the Wanderer, unchronicled by Homer, which follow his return from the siege of Troy. Odysseus, ever restless for new experience, sails westward where he seeks and finds the mythical city of Atlantis, and then sails on to set foot upon the shore of the New World.
