The Satyr & Other Tales (Plus Signed Illustration) (Signed) (Numbered Limited Edition)
In the final throes of the Blitz, Austin Osman Spare is the only salvation for Marlene, an artist escaping a traumatic past. Wandering Southwark's ruins she encounters Paddy Hughes, a fugitive of another kind. Falling under Marlene's spell Hughes agrees to seek out her lost mentor, the man she calls The Satyr.
Yet Marlene's past will not rest as the mysterious Doctor Charnock pursues them, trying to capture the patient she'd once caged. The Satyr is a tale inspired by the life and ethos of sorcerer and artist Austin Osman Spare.
Laid in is a printed postcard (in envelope) signed and dated by Clark with an original sketch by the author/artist. This copy is numbered 31/100.
There are some small specs on the dust jacket.
