Pictorial Hard Cover. Condition: Used/Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Used/Fair. Ivan T. Sanderson (illustrator). First Edition. 325 Pages. Showing bumping around the corners, some tanning from age. The DJ shows bumping around the corners, tanning from age, tiny chips missing from the from toes, a tiny chip missing from the front bottom edge of the spine, tiny chips missing from the top and bottom edges. Quoting from the back cover: "Crawling, climbing, jumping, prowling, and flying through the West Africa jungle are myriads of strange creatures, the teeming population of land almost unknown to the white man. Ivan Sanderson, an enthusiastic young naturalist with a flair for novelty, decided this was the field for new research. He organized an expedition, and with two companions he set out not merely to collect stuffed specimens or to bring them back alive, but to study them in their own surroundings. The jungle is a sudden sort of place and strange encounters lurked at every turn. Some of their adventures were humorous, even ridiculous, others were exciting and dangerous; all of them kept the trio alert. This book, the genial report of their scientific findings, is also the exuberant tale of a rare adventure." The pages are very tight and very clean, we found NO MARKS. Our books are guaranteed and ship the day they're sold; from Bellingham, Wa. in the USA. "Recycle - Buy Used!". Book.

First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 185 pages. Published in 1993. The author's breakthrough debut novel. One of the most important literary debuts of our time. Uncorrected Proof. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited print run for the exclusive use of the author and publisher. There is no ISBN. The Uncorrected Proof is now rare. Presents Donald Antrim's "Elect Mr. Robinson For A Better World". His first novel. It announced a daring new American voice, in a precisely crafted, spectacularly provocative work. "Antrim is that rarest of birds, a virtuoso satirist. He plays the banal against the grotesque, sets a fool's logic grinding like a tiny wheel against the ceiling of a pancake house, and finally opens the exit to the void. Antrim's extraordinary imagination has invited comparison of his work with that of Italo Calvino, but Antrim has a sharper razor, a diamond eye drilling our culture and time. In Antrim's pinball machine, the reader ricochets from intellectual pleasure to anxiety to nervous laughter" (Annie Proulx). Being compared with Italo Calvino would actually have been enough. An absolute "must-have" title for Donald Antrim collectors. This is a copy of the Uncorrected Proof. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of a handful of copies of the Uncorrected Proof still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare copy thus. Selected by The New Yorker Magazine as one of the "Twenty Writers for the 21st Century". One of the finest American writers of our time. A fine copy.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 260 pages. Published in 1999. The author's second novel. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Peter Landesman's "Blood Acre". A brilliant follow-up novel by the widely-acclaimed author of "The Raven". Exquisitely written, this is a "genuine tour-de-force, an apocalyptic murder mystery that demands to be read in a single setting" (Times Literary Supplement). The novel has been compared to Malcolm Lowry's "Under The Volcano" (by James McConkey) and to William Styron's work by Stewart O'Nan, who asserts that what Landesman has pulled off is a more poetic version of the hard-boiled thriller: "The soft-boiled thriller, where every wound weeps, every memory stings, and every dream festers" (Stewart O'Nan). Now a full-fledged Hollywood screenwriter, Landesman is a brilliant American writer with a solid cult following, who deserves to be read by a much wider audience. An absolute "must-have" title for Peter Landesman collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Peter Landesman. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few such signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce signed copy thus. Winner of the Sue Kaufman Prize for First Fiction from the American Academy of Arts and Letters in 1995 for "The Raven". One of the most brilliant American writers of our time. A fine copy.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 303 pages. Published in 2001. The author's sixth collection of short stories. Now considered a contemporary classic. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents T. Coraghessan Boyle's "After The Plague And Other Stories". Sixteen short stories from a late-modern master of the genre. Without missing a beat, the author offers a fresh, new collection of short stories after his massive retrospective, "T. C. Boyle Stories". Nine of them originally appeared in The New Yorker Magazine, three of which were selected as among the "Best American Short Stories" in the year they first appeared. "Skinny, ear-ringed, satanically goateed, T. Coraghessan Boyle is the trickster figure of American letters. Part court jester, part holy fool, he slips in and out of various narrative disguises as it suits him. Nowhere is this more evident than in his short fiction, in which he bounces from psychological naturalism to giddy slapstick, dreamy surrealism to biting satire, sometimes within the space of a single tale" (Mary Park). If Gore Vidal is America's preeminent literary historian, T. C. Boyle is its preeminent literary anthropologist. An absolute "must-have" title for T. Coraghessan Boyle collectors. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by T. Coraghessan Boyle. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 207 pages. Published in 2006. The author's autobiography. One of the greatest biographical accounts of the 20th century. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Paul Rusesabagina's "An Ordinary Man: An Autobiography". An indispensable account for our (and all) time: Bearing witness to The African Holocaust. As his title suggests, Paul Rusesabagina was just an ordinary man (just as Oscar Schindler was) who faced a horrific situation with extraordinary courage. "For hotel manager Rusesabagina, words are the most powerful weapon for good or evil, as was the case in the Spring of 1994 in Rwanda. Within 100 days, 800, 000 people were slaughtered. Rusesabagina, the inspiration for the film, 'Hotel Rwanda', used his facility with words and persuasion to save 1, 268 of his fellow countrymen, turning the Belgian luxury hotel under his charge into a sanctuary from madness. Through negotiation, favor, flattery, and deception, Rusesabagina managed to keep his 'guests' alive despite the homicidal gangs just beyond the fence and the world's failure to act" (Publisher's blurb). As the killings were going on, President Clinton adamantly refused to call the slaughter "genocide" because of the moral responsibility the word entailed. By the time the United States and the Rest of the World intervened, more than one million dead Rwandans were rotting in the streets, a tragedy that Clinton himself described in his memoir, "My Life", as one of the most shameful chapters of the worst century in human history. At least he admits it happened during his watch. "We all knew we would die, no question. The only question was, how? Would they chop us to pieces? With their machetes, they would cut your left hand off. Then they would disappear and reappear a few hours later to cut off your right hand. A little later, they would return for your left leg. They came and went until you died. They wanted to make you suffer as long as possible. There was only one other alternative: You could pay soldiers so they would just shoot you, execution-style" (Paul Rusesabagina). An eloquently written story that tells us of the darkest side of humanity as plainly as possible, Nelson Mandela has urged all human beings, not just Africans, to read it and never forget. An absolute "must-have" title for Paul Rusesabagina collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black pen-marker on the title page by Paul Rusesabagina. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. As far as we know, this is one of few such signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. Paul Rusesabagina received The Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2005, the highest award the United States Government accords individual achievers and brave men and women. A fine copy.

Presents, in its earliest-state format, Geraldine Brooks' "The Secret Chord". Her best novel since "March" (2005) : A near-scandalous account on the endlessly fascinating King David. "A rich and utterly absorbing novel about the life of King David. Takes on one of literature's richest and most enigmatic figures: A man who shimmers between history and legend. Peeling away the myth to bring David to life in Second Iron-Age Israel, Brooks traces the arc of his journey from obscurity to fame, from shepherd to soldier, from hero to traitor, from beloved king to murderous despot, and into his remorseful and diminished dotage" (Publisher's blurb). "A page turner. Brooks is a master at bringing the past alive. In her skillful hands, the issues of the past echo our own deepest concerns: Love and loss, drama and tragedy, chaos and brutality" (The Washington Post). An absolute "must-have" title for Geraldine Brooks collectors. This is a copy of the Uncorrected Proof. It is very boldly and beautifully signed, placed, and dated (two days after publication) in black ink-pen on the title page by the author: "Geraldine Brooks 10.8.15 NYC".
