Stapledon/The Opening Of The Eyes[protest in the heart, prayer is answered, urgency]. Published by Methuen & Co. Ltd, London, 1954; xiii + 97 pages, 12.5 X 19cm; "Very Good", green cloth hardback with gilt lettering. Previously the property of Liverpool Public Libraries, with their neat armorial bookplate on front and rear paste-downs; library shelf number in gilt at the base of spine. A rarely encountered item. *** The manuscript was prepared for press by Mrs. Stapledon herself, and in answer to my questions concerning the amount of editing it called for, she replied as follows: My task was chiefly to write out the last pages of the book, from a very fine and rather complicated pencil copy, deciding which were the experimental phrases or words and which the final. Also to go over the whole manuscript a good many times, inserting pencil notes that my husband had added in the margin, and in a few cases taking the liberty of discarding a word or a repetition of a phrase, just as I would have done if he had been there to ask my opinion. And he often did make small alterations at my suggestion, because he relied on my judgement in some things -- not all. And she proceeds to give reasons for her belief that the book, as it stands, is not quite complete. Several short sections had yet to be added at the end, and no indication whatever of their contents was forthcoming. ***
