Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First Edition, First Printing! Book is in Very Good condition! Does not seem to have been read! Does have a small stain at the bottom of the front cover. Dustjacket is also in Very Good condition. A small discoloration at the bottom of the front DJ. Very minor shelfwear otherwise. Still looks almost like new! "Donoghue finds her inspiration for these wry, robust tales in obscure scraps of historical records: an engraving of a woman giving birth to rabbits; a plague ballad; surgical case notes; theological pamphlets; an articulated skeleton. Here kings, surgeons, soldiers, and ladies of leisure rub shoulders with cross-dressers, cult leaders, poisoners, and arsonists. Whether she's spinning the tale of an Irish soldier tricked into marrying a dowdy spinster, a Victorian surgeon's attempts to "improve" women, a seventeenth-century countess who ran away to Italy disguised as a man, or an "undead" murderess returning for the maid she left behind to be executed in her place, Emma Donoghue brings to her stories an "elegant, colorful prose filled with unforgettable sights, sounds and smells" ("Elle"). Here she summons the ghosts of those women who counted for nothing in their own day, but who come to unforgettable life in fiction." Your purchase supports a small business.

The Woman Who Gave Birth to Rabbits: Stories
Seller: The Bark of the Beech Tree, Depoe Bay, OR, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. "Fiction springboarding from fact" is how Emma Donoghue describes the way in which, with this book and many of her others, she takes a real historical incident and spins a fiction from it. It's a format of fiction that seems to have become more and more prevalent in recent years: roman à clef, fictionalized biographies, historically accurate re-tellings, the non-fiction novel, etc., all have proliferated to the commonplace. Not that there's anything wrong with that! Here, the splendid Ms Donoghue gives us 17 fascinating little tales all inspired by snippets of history that she's stumbled upon. A short note at the beginning of each story provides some details of that original inspiration. A fine copy in fine dust jacket.
