hardcover. Condition: Very Good. includes dust-jacket. DETAILS: near fine dust-jacket, cover price $25.95, very good hardcover with gray spine and black boards, attractive copy but probably gently read as it has a very slight skew. KOVÁLY, HEDA MARGOLIUS. Innocence : or, Murder on Steep Street. Translated from the Czech by Alex…Zucker. New York: Soho Crime, 2015, 1st printing number line ending in 1, xvii, 234pp., . "This rediscovered gem of Czech literature, a crime novel by renowned Holocaust memoirist Heda Margolius Kovaly, depicts a chilling moment in history, redolent with the stifling atmosphere of political and personal oppression of the early days of Socialist Czechoslovakia. In 1985, Czech Holocaust memoirist, literary translator, and political exile Heda Margolius Kovaly turned her pen to fiction. Inspired by the stories of Raymond Chandler, Kovaly knit her own terrifying experiences in early 1950s Socialist Prague -- her husband's imprisonment and wrongful execution, her own persecution at his disgrace -- into a gorgeous psychological thriller-cum-detective novel. Set in and around a cinema where a murder was recently committed, Innocence follows the unfolding of the investigation while telling the stories of the women who work there as ushers, each of whom is forced to support herself in difficult circumstances. As the novel brings this group alive, it tells their various life stories that have brought them to this job, the secrets they share with one another, and the secrets they keep. When the detective trying to solve the first murder is found slain by the cinema, all of their secrets come into the light. A smart, evocative, and deeply stirring literary crime novel with international appeal"-- Provided by publisher., "In 1985, Czech Holocaust memoirist, literary translator, and political exile Heda Margolius Kovaly turned her pen to fiction.

Felix straightened, eyes narrowed behind the viewport as he searched the area. It had only been a brief twinkle of brilliance and for a moment he doubted whether he had seen… anything at all. Then it came again, a sunbright sparkle as of light reflecting from some bright surface. It came from the far distance between Tycho and the station and, he knew, it could only have been caused by some moving object. Echlan had seen it too. Before Felix could report he heard the sergeant's voice. "Unknown object approaching station on bearing three twenty-five. Distance about five miles." "Message received," said a woman's voice. "Switch to combat channel." >>> Creasing to top edge of backcover; Pen to interior front cover; Size: 16mo - over 5¾ - 6¾" tall. Painted Cover Art! (illustrator). Book.

WAGNER, WOLFGANG. Acts: the autobiography of Wolfgang Wagner. Translated from the German by John Brownjohn. L…ondon: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1994, xii, 324pp., . "When Wolfgang Wagner was growing up, the Bayreuth Festival was at its pre-war apogee. Under the aegis of Wolfgang's English mother, Winifred, the festival devoted to the works of Richard Wagner had become the jewel in the crown of Nazi cultural life. Behind the scenes, there was artistic tension and personal conflict as the name of Wagner became coopted to a cause which he had never espoused. Wolfgang Wagner recounts his own extraordinary encounters with prominent Nazi figures, including Hitler, and traces the tangle of music and politics which, with the defeat of the Third Reich, left the Festival discredited and almost destroyed." - CONTENTS: A Personal Statement -- 1966: A Different Situation -- On Time and Space -- Growing Up -- A Fiction -- Soldiering and Studying -- Picking Up the Pieces -- A New Start --Two Rings -- Spreading Word and Sound -- Along the Line of Continuity: 1 -- Along the Line of Continuity: 2 -- Wagner & Wagner -- Foundation Stones -- Miscellany -- Viewing the Future. 9780297813491 ISBN 0297813498.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Published in 1985, "Forms of Attention" by Sir Frank Kermode consists of the series of famous Welleck Library Lectures presented by Professor Kermode. The book received attention in the form of high praise from colleagues and critics alike. This is t…he First Edition, published by the University of Chicago Press. Here is an excerpt from the jacket's write-up : "When a work of art is received into some approved canon, we consider it more attentively and may be impelled to say more profound things about it; at any rate we try to keep on saying different things. the processes, therefore, by which works are canonized themselves deserve greater attention than they have received. How are works of art deemed worthy of our attention? How do they remain part of an accepted or revered canon? What does the canon formation reveal about the standards and practices of the academy? " 'Forms of Attention' is an important addition to a line of distinguished books by Frank Kermode, and it bears its predecessor's admirable qualities : extraordinary compression without loss of lucidity, accessibility to non-experts, and theoretical currency — a state - of - the - art timelessness that has long been the trademark of Kermode's writing." (From the Foreword by Frank Lentricchia) CHAPTERS : ** Botticelli Recovered ** Cornelius and Voltemand : Doubles in "Hamlet" ** Disentangling Knowledge from Opinion SERIES : The Welleck Library Lectures SERIES EDITOR - FOREWORD : Frank Lentricchia TITLE : The Forms of Attention AUTHOR : Frank Kermode (1919 - 2010) He was the Lord Northcliffe Professor of Modern English Literature at University College London and the King Edward VII Professor of English Literature at Cambridge University.
