Powell, Anthony (1905-2000)
A Question of Upbringing.

London: William Heinemann Ltd., 1951.

First English edition, octavo; bound in red publisher's cloth, black spine label gilt-stamped; with unclipped pictorial dust jacket, (chips at corners, 3 in. split at flap fold); 7 1/4 x 4 3/4 in.

This is the opening novel in Powell's Dance to the Music of Time cycle, a twelve-volume roman-fleuve considered one of the longest English-language works. The series, originally inspired by a Nicholas Poussin painting of the same name, is considered a hallmark of English literature and has been adapted both for television and radio productions.
