77 pages (complete). Very neatly signed by Slater on the first free page. This collection of Eastern Cape banker turned poet gives a generous flavour of how South African poetry was developing. The poems are densely coloured with culture and the contours of the country. Slater was to become regarded as the first English speaking poet to write poetry rather than verse. The dustjacket is worn, sunned and scuffed all about. It is secure and placid. The boards are generally neat. The spine has some marking from storage at the head and heel. Within, the contents are serene, sure, clean, clear, comfortable and certain. fk. Book Condition: Good. Binding: Hardcover.
