Description
No marks or inscriptions. A very clean very tight copy with unmarked black cloth boards, light foxing to top of page edges and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn or rubbed or creased with slightly dusty rear. 84pp. Peter Luke's play is based on the book of the same name by Fr. Rolfe (Baron Corvo). The play is a skilful portrait of Rolfe's fantasy character Pope Hadrain VII into which Rolfe poured all the bitterness and frustration of his life.
