ITHELL COLQUHOUN THE LIVING STONES, CORNWALL, published by Peter Owen, First Edition, 1957, Hardcover, with the original dust jacket designed by the author, blue cloth-bound boards and title in gilt lettering on spine, it contains four black and white photographs and twenty-four line drawings by the author at the end of each chapter, and on the frontispiece (204pp). Ithell Colquhoun evokes the scenery of Cornwall, its people and mythology through her senses. After the War, much of her writing was done in Cornwall and much of it reflects its atmosphere. As a Surrealist artist interested in the occult, she drew much interest from the Celtic legends and brings to the fore the almost vanished past of Cornwall. A rare edition published by the legendary Peter Owen, now reprinted by Pushkin Press (2025).
