Octavo. (147)ff. Ward's first novel, with the story told exclusively through 139 woodcut illustrations. Ward borrowed heavily from German Expressionism for his intense, angular, and occasionally sinister style, altogether appropriate for this Faustian tale. Hardcover bound in full blue cloth over boards stamped in silver. Stray rubs, else fine in near fine dust wrapper. Paperback copy in white illustrated wrappers with mild rubs to outer corners, else near fine. Ward has inscribed both to Dan Burne-Jones.
