NABOKOV, Vladimir. Poems. London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson. 1961. Thin 8vo. First British edition. Publisher’s patterned blue boards lettered in silver gilt to the spine, in the dust jacket with a central motif by Robin Jacques who provides several drawings. A very good or better copy. The boards clean and bright, trivially bumped to extremities. The binding tight and square, the contents clean and bright throughout, one or two minor bumps to page edges. The dust jacket unclipped (12s 6d net), slightly toned to extremities with a few mild spots to rear panel.
Poems collects all of Nabokov’s prose into one slim volume, all of which were written between 1942 and 1957, and most of which had originally appeared in The New Yorker.
