Autumn Sequel. A Rhetorical Poem in XXVI Cantos. London: Faber and Faber, 1954. First Edition. Mauve cloth boards in dust jacket. Off-setting to endpapers, otherwise a fine bright copy.

‘An Autumn Sequel, MacNeice has transmuted the ephemeral and the topical into poetry which will remain permanently moving and which attains something of the timelessness of myth.’
