The Centenary of 'The Green Lacquer Pavilion' by Helen Beauclerk

  The Green Lacquer Pavilion by Helen Beauclerk celebrates its centenary around now. The author was 32 when she completed the book in 1925, and it was published in the Spring lists of the following year. In 1924, she had met, and become the partner of, the artist Edmund Dulac, who illustrated the book. This graceful fantasy is written in a light pastiche of early 18th century prose,
