Don Leon LORD BYRON Fortune Press BANNED BOOK Scarce Limited Edition
AND FORMING PART OF THE PRIVATE JOURNAL OF HIS LORDSHIP, SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN ENTIRELY DESTROYED BY THOS. TO WHICH IS ADDED. LORD BYRON TO LADY BYRON. Published in 1934 by The Fortune Press. LIMITED EDITION PRINT RUN OF JUST 1000 COPIES, MANY OF WHICH ARE SAID TO HAVE BEEN DESTROYED. Originally written in the early 19th century and attributed to Lord Byron (still a matter of debate), Don Leon is unique in English literature. It is a powerful outcry against injustice, a moving and erudite defence of male love, and an account of Byron’s sexuality. Don Leon forcefully demands the repeal of Britain’s sodomy statute (Section 15 of the Offences Against the Person Act 1828), under which men and even adolescent boys were being hanged for having sex with each other. As a polemic for the emancipation of male love, Don Leon was far ahead of its time. Among neglected literary masterpieces, Don Leon heads the list – not only neglected, but vilified and rigorously suppressed. It is great poetry – a gay epic. At the same time it is undeniably pornographic. In 1934 when this edition was published by Fortune Press, it fell foul of the obscenity laws and was immediately confiscated by the Metropolitan police, who burned all the copies they could find, with only a few having survived. I’ve listed some other books which may be of interest. This item is in the category “Books, Comics & Magazines\Antiquarian & Collectable”. The seller is “avucian” and is located in this country: GB.

Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke (2004) 1st Edition Rare Scarce
Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke (Hardcover, 2004) 1st Edition. Very rare limited edition. Still in shrink wrap. 18 years dry and dark stored. Collectors edition of this famous novel in slipcase. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. 1st edition / 1st printing. Slipcased signed limited edition. Susanna Clarke lives in Cambridge, England. This was her first book. English magicians were once the wonder of the known world, with fairy servants at their beck and call; they could command winds, mountains, and woods. But by the early 1800s they have long since lost the ability to perform magic. They can only write long, dull papers about it, while fairy servants are nothing but a fading memory. But at Hurtfew Abbey in Yorkshire, the rich, reclusive Mr Norrell has assembled a wonderful library of lost and forgotten books from England’s magical past and regained some of the powers of England’s magicians. He goes to London and raises a beautiful young woman from the dead. All goes well until a rival magician appears. Jonathan Strange is handsome, charming, and talkative-the very opposite of Mr Norrell. Strange thinks nothing of enduring the rigors of campaigning with Wellington’s army and doing magic on battlefields. Astonished to find another practicing magician, Mr Norrell accepts Strange as a pupil. But it soon becomes clear that their ideas of what English magic ought to be are very different. For Mr Norrell, their power is something to be cautiously controlled, while Jonathan Strange will always be attracted to the wildest, most perilous forms of magic. He becomes fascinated by the ancient, shadowy figure of the Raven King, a child taken by fairies who became king of both England and Faerie, and the most legendary magician of all. Eventually Strange’s heedless pursuit of long-forgotten magic threatens to destroy not only his partnership with Norrell, but everything that he holds dear. Sophisticated, witty, and ingeniously convincing, Susanna Clarke’s magisterial novel weaves magic into a flawlessly detailed vision of historical England. She has created a world so thoroughly enchanting that eight hundred pages leave readers longing for more. Bloomsbury Pub Plc USA; 1st edition 30 Sept.
