Bookseller accession no.: 12069. As reviewed by 'The Bookman', July 1923: These stories of Africa and England are ".an unusual collection of sketches, poetic in content and language, though prose in external form. They are written in a minor key, these stories and impressions of a world full of suffering, brutality, death, and decay.".

Very good A pre-eminent association copy of Llewelyn Powys' first solo book, a collection of short stories and sketches set in Africa and England, owned by "his lady," Alyse Gregory, the editor of The Dial, which had originally carried two pieces collected here, 'A Sheepman's Diary' (April 1920) and 'Dead Matter in Africa' (March 1921). Anglo-American woman of letters, Alyse Gregory (1884-1967) married Llewelyn Powys in New York in 1924, a year after Ebony and Ivory's publication(s). They had met in 1921, when Powys received an invitation to tea at Patchin Place in a hand "spider-like and intellectual," reminding him of "Oscar Wilde's handwriting in his letters to Lois Wilkinson". Gregory's home "was entirely different from anything I had seen elsewhere in New York," as was "the poise, the intellectual intensity, the freedom from preconceptions, as of a child uncontaminated by the world, of my grave, delicately ironic hostess" (Powys, 1927). Gregory resigned her editorship of The Dial and the couple relocated to Britain in 1925, where they lived near East Chaldon, Dorset, close to Powys' equally talented and creative siblings, Theodore, Katie and Gertrude. The Harcourt Brace edition, with its striking b/w frontis by Winold Reiss (1886-1953), the German-born American artist and graphic designer, appeared shortly after the American Library Service edition of Ebony and Ivory.
