Huxley, Aldous. Time Life Books, 1963. Softbound. Between 1962 and 1966, the Time Reading Program published a range of literature aimed at a commercial audience, all featuring coated covers with wraparound art by contemporary artists, including this dazzler by Attilio Salemme, an artist known for his 'pin‐thin, near‐human figures [which] relate to the ancient phenomenon of American loneliness' (The New York Times) and compared, by Robert Pincus-Witten, to 'the Surrealist accretions of Kay Sage . . . Noguchi’s theatre sets for Martha Graham . . . [and] the lessons of Paul Klee from the early 1920s.'
Spine has some sunning, very subtle creasing, and a slight lean. Interior is clean and unmarked. Light to moderate edge-wear. 227 pp. Fiction.
