Hardback. Condition: New. 7 Reece Mews, South Kensington, was Francis Bacon's home and studio for over thirty years. After he died in 1992, access was granted to award-winning photographer Perry Ogden to work undisturbed for days on end to produce this riveting record of the house and its contents. He captured every part of the small building's hidden interior: the rickety wooden staircase; the kitchen with its 'gallery' of Bacon works in reproduction; the bedsitting room with its bookcases piled high. In the studio itself, thirty years of inspired artistic endeavour had accumulated unchecked: the slashed, discarded canvases scattered across the floor; the brushes, rags and tins encrusted with layer upon layer of paint; the surfaces used as impromptu palettes; the last unfinished self-portrait on the easel. For some, Bacon's studio was an heroic statement, a work of art in its own right, constructed to distil and give form to his aesthetic intentions. In this astonishing book we are invited to take an intimate and privileged look around his private space, and to gain unrivalled insights into how, why and what he painted. …

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. First Printing [Stated]. [12], 500, [2] pages. Signed copy sticker on DJ. Kathleen de Burca, an Irish travel writer based in London, faces the realities of a milestone birthday and sets out for Ireland to discover the truth about a scandalous love affair that took place between the wife of an English landlord and an Irish servant during the potato famine, she uncovers the complex mysteries of love and confronts a fateful decision that could change her life forever. The passages in italics in this book are verbatim quotations from original source material related to the Talbot divorce case, which was an actual event. Nuala O'Faolain (1 March 1940 9 May 2008) was an Irish journalist, television producer, book reviewer, teacher and writer. She was educated at University College Dublin, the University of Hull, and Oxford University. She taught for a time at Morley College, and worked as a television producer for the BBC and Raidió Teilifís Éireann. She became well known after the publication of her memoirs Are You Somebody? and Almost There. She wrote a biography of Irish criminal Chicago May and two novels. O'Faolain's formative years coincided with the emergence of the women's movement, and her ability to expose misogyny in all its forms was formidable, forensic and unremitting. However, O'Faolain's feminism stemmed from a fundamental belief in social justice. Unlike most commentators, who maintain a detached, lofty tone, O'Faolain, placed herself at the centre of things, a high-risk strategy that worked because of her broad range of erudition, worn lightly, her courage and a truthfulness that sometimes bordered on the self-destructive. Derived from a Kirkus review: With her first fiction, memoirist O'Faolain offers an expansive work touching on the nature of passion, loss, and hope. Approaching 50, Kathleen de Burca finds her life a tidy ruin: a travel writer for decades, she's led a life that may seem glamorous and exciting, yet she has little to show for her wandering years, which seem now less like exploring than simply running away. At the death of her dearest friend, Kathleen decides to quit her job and return to her native Ireland, where she hasn't set foot since she was 20, to research a little-known divorce case from near the end of the Great Potato Famine (184549). She hopes to discover grand passion between the English Marianne Talbot and her Irish stable groom William Mullen, but all she finds are questionsand buried, haunting memories of her own. A nesting box of stories, her narrative slips from the present to a full recounting of her past, then to the distant past in the fairy tale she begins writing about Marianne and William. Not surprisingly, she elevates their love, something she's had little of in her own life. Involved in one debasing sexual experience after another (including a submission to her aged London landlord simply because he asks for it in lieu of paying a clean-up fee), Kathleen is now left to confront the lonely shape of the life she's created and the Ireland she left behind. In a lyrical and often brutal account of Irish life, the Talbot affair and even the misery of her own parents become sins of the dead bearing down on the living. Kathleen's journey home, though, provides the needed catharsis and introduces her, as well, to a man who will love herif she chooses. An honest and poignant account of a woman attempting to build a future on the ruins of the past. Perry Ogden (Author photograph) (illustrator).…

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. First Printing [Stated]. [8], 500, [2] pages. Inscribed by the author on the title page. Inscription reads Nuala O'Faolain for Catherine. Nuala O'Faolain (1 March 1940 - 9 May 2008) was an Irish journalist, TV producer, book reviewer, teacher and writer. She became well known after the publication of her memoirs Are You Somebody? and Almost There. She wrote a biography of Irish criminal Chicago May and two novels. O'Faolain was born in Clontarf, Dublin. Her father, known as 'TerryO' was a well-known Irish journalist. She was educated at University College Dublin, the University of Hull, and Oxford University. In her writings she often discusses her frustration at the sexism and rigidity of roles in Catholic Ireland that expected her to marry and have children, neither of which she did. In Are You Somebody?, she speaks candidly about her fifteen-year relationship with the journalist Nell McCafferty, who published her own memoir, Nell. From 2002 until her death, O'Faolain lived much of the time with Brooklyn-based attorney John Low-Beer and his daughter Anna. She became internationally well known for her two volumes of memoir, Are You Somebody? and Almost There; a novel, My Dream of You; and a history with commentary, The Story of Chicago May. Her posthumous novel Best Love, Rosie was published in 2009. O'Faolain's feminism stemmed from a fundamental belief in social justice.
