Crome Yellow by Aldous Huxley 1955 paperback edition

Crome Yellow by Aldous HuxleyOn vacation from school, Denis goes to stay at Crome, an English country house inhabited by several of Huxley’s most outlandish characters—from Mr. Barbecue-Smith, who writes 1,500 publishable words an hour by “getting in touch” with his “subconscious,” to Henry Wimbush, who is obsessed with writing the definitive ‘History of Crome.’ Lambasting the post-Victorian standards of morality, Crome Yellow is a witty masterpiece that, in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s words, “is too ironic to be called satire and too scornful to be called irony.”Vintage Paperback / Bantam / 1955 / Very Good Condition / In Protective Plastic Sleeve
