Von Händler/Antiquariat, Chapter 1 Books.
Ad. Donker Publisher, 1987. 1st Edition. Soft cover. Fair/No Jacket. 304 pages (complete). Ex-library (Cape Town City Libraries) copy with consequent labels, debris, residue, marks, annotations, wear and usage. Possibly one of the most influential authors of her time, Schreiner's work is explored here with delicacy and diligence. The cover has a clear adhesive plastic covering. This is scruffy and worn and scuffed. The cover, though, is intact and resolute. Inside, the frontispage is missing. The front and end papers are marked from residue. The pages have evidence of use throughout but are comfortable, calm, clear, clean, neat and assured. fk.

200 x 130 mm; pictorial wrappers; pp. 304. Wrappers foxed and very slightly curled; foxing to edges and outermost leaves. Good condition. "Olive Schreiner always had an effect on people - no-one who encountered her was afterwards neutral about her. She was adored or thoroughly loathed. In this collection of letters, diaries and other manuscript sources, Ridley Beeton integrates her warmth and arrogance, her anger and love, her brilliance and contrariness into a comprehensive portrait of Olive Schreiner the woman and writer. The emotional/intellectual entanglements with Karl Pearson, Edward Carpenter and Havelock Ellis are extensively covered. The facets presented are based on primary sources held at research centres, and are linked by notes which give further information about the people who influenced her, or under whose guidance she worked.".
