Mary O'Hara CELEBRATION OF LOVE First Edition Signed

First UK edition, first print hardback of CELEBRATION OF LOVE - A Collection of Favorite Prose and Poetry, by Mary O'Hara and published by Hodder & Stoughton, London, in 1985. Signed and inscribed by the author on the half title page (see pictures below).

The book is in very good condition (clean black boards and silver lettering on spine) with only slight wear to the dust jacket, which is not price clipped (only slight creasing to edges). Internally, the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears and no other inscriptions. There is a folding crease across the bottom corner on the front endpaper.

Life is one ceaseless exploration and adventure in learning about loving.

International singing star Mary O'Hara has put together a delightful collection of prose, poetry and song. Over the years she has given others the opportunity to enjoy what has meant most to her. Her choice centres around the theme of love.

Love is the rich source of creativity, laughter, art, romance and friendship, and is found too in sorrow and separation. Each different aspect of love is given a separate chapter, and the author introduces them on a personal note. Thus, Celebration of Love provides a unique insight into her own life and faith as well as drawing together both great and then little-known writing, and a galaxy of authors. Thomas Hardy, Joyce Grenfell and C.S. Lewis are among the favourites, and a special feature is the inclusion of previously unpublished material by Richard Selig, Mary O'Hara's husband who died tragically after only fifteen months of marriage.

214 pages. Illustrated with black & white line-drawings throughout with a couple of color plates of the author.
