Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. AC2 - A first edition (complete numberline) hardcover book in very good condition in very good dust jacket. Dust jacket has light staining on back side at the top and on the crease of the bottom left, small chip on inside of back flap (1/8 inch), slight shelf wear. Book has small dent on front cover right corner (1/2 inch) and light shelf wear. Although not marked in any way, this copy comes from the personal collection of Otto Penzler, legendary editor and founder of the Mysterious Press, an award-winning icon in the genre. 8.75"x5.5", 192 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Patrick McGrath is a Poe for the '80s, the first postmodern-gothic storyteller. Drawn from the mind's most unruly nightmares and macabre alcoves, his elegantly bizarre short fiction is laden with shimmering images of sensuality: a doomed beauty rises from warm tub surrounded by swirling clouds of vapor; a mysterious stranger strips naked, revealing the secret of his loneliness- his kinship with the angels. McGrath's fictional inquiries move from the bugaboos of Victorian superstition and Freudian psychology to the curse of human desire, from English estates to the dark, savage Congo to the downtown bohemia of Manhattan after midnight. In "The Black Hand of the Raj", set against colonial India's dizzying heat, a young woman finds pain- and pleasure- at the hand of an ancient curse. In "The Skewer", an elderly man is haunted by the torments of three miniature psychiatrists, including Freud himself. In "Ambrose Syme", a young Jesuit sublimates his passion with poetry and soothes it with murder. Touched with subtle humor and irony, rich with erudite atmosphere prose, Blood and Water and Other Tales is the extraordinary debut of a writer who stretches the limits of gothic horror- creating unforgettable literature. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
