Chamber Music.

Chamber Music was Joyce's first commercially published book after privately produced jeux and an aborted edition of the precursor to Dubliners. Gorman reported there to have been just 509 copies produced and these were split into three distinct issue. The present copy is from the first issue, with laid paper endleaves with the chain lines running horizontally and the text in signature C well centred. The subsequent issues were bound later and turn up not infrequently. This copy is in extraordinary condition, the best we have handled.
