JOYCE, James (1882-1941). A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. London: The Egoist Ltd, [1918]. 8° (183 x 121mm) (light spotting to page edges). Publisher's green cloth, spine printed in gilt, title and author's name blind-stamped on front cover, without dust-jacket (spine lightly faded). FIRST ENGLISH EDITION, ENGLISH SHEETS.
No English firm was willing to print Joyce's novel because of the possibility of prosecution for obscenity, and so the first Egoist edition -- published in February 1917 -- was made up of American sheets. Slocum & Cahoon A13.
