    Good first edition, no dust-jacket. Some yellowing, foxing and general wear to the pages and page block. Darkening and staining to the endpages. Minor fading and some discolouration to the hardcover, with wear to the edges.

About the book

During his lifetime Lawrence was best known as a novelist, but with the passage of time his true genius is located more and more by ordinary readers and critics in his short stories and novellas.

In 'St Mawr', Lou Witt buys a beautiful, untamable bay stallion and discovers an intense affinity with the horse that she cannot feel with her husband.

This superb novella displays Lawrence's mastery of satirical comedy in a scathing depiction of London's fashionable horse riding set.
