Mañanas en Mexico
Mexico: Letras de Mexico, 1942. First Mexican edition. Softcover. Quarto. 157, [1]pp. Uncut and unopened copy. Original glassine over printed wrappers. "Mañanas en Mexico" (Mornings in Mexico) is a collection of travel essays by David Herbert Richards Lawrence, first published by Martin Secker in 1927. This work displays Lawrence's gifts as a travel writer, catching the 'spirit of place' in his own vivid manner. Lawrence wrote the first four of these essays at the same time as he was completing and revising his Mexican novel, "The Plumed Serpent." Three of the others, about Pueblo Indians, were written earlier in 1924 in New Mexico, and the final piece "A Little Moonshine with Lemon" came later as Lawrence remembered his New Mexico ranch (Kiowa Ranch) from Italy. Minor age toning on glassine. Glassine in overall good, wrappers and interior in near fine to fine condition. vg. Item #31640
