It was originally published by Skeffington & Son before being reprinted by Persephone Books in 1999.

Please note that the available edition is missing two pages (pages 169-170), and that these pages are therefore missing from the reading. The missing scene is when William Tully first meets the Englishwoman Edith Haynes in a French village.
