The Return of Fursey. Illustrated by John Parsons. London: Pilot Press, 1948. First Edition. A nice bright copy in lightly worn dust jacket, a little loss to tail of spine.

Signed by the author on title page.

A blend of satire, comedy and fantasy set in the 10th century monastic Ireland where Brother Fursey is forced to lead a layman’s life among countrymen absorbed or terrified by witchcraft and demonology. “A landmark book in the history of fantasy.” -[ Bleiler, The Guide to Supernatural Fiction]
