MARK BLAYNEY Conversations with Magic Stones >>> Collectors Copy <<< Signed, Lined and Dated
United Kingdom Manuscript Publishing 2003 0954550501 / 9780954550509 1st Edition Softcover As New/Unread Fiction 1st Printing SIGNED, LINED AND DATED
Set in Bruges, Paris and the Holloway Road, these are provocative and challenging stories. Powerfully and tightly written, these stories are sexy and evocative stuff – you can smell the beaches and the bedrooms that feature in the stories, and see the dead leaves blowing alongside the canal in Bruges as clouds race overhead. Blayney writes with intensity and immediacy; unlike so much modern fiction which is either worthy and dull, or exciting but trivial. He writes stories which have something to say without being pretentious and which despite heavy themes (God, death, sex, the nature of reality) are consistently entertaining and beautifully written. In FINE - AS NEW condition, this copy has been signed, lined and dated by the author on the title page.

VLADIMIR NOBOKOV Lolita
1959 1st Edition Hardcover Very Good Erotic Fiction 2nd Printing N/A
The subject matter, of a middle-aged man desiring a young girl, a nymphet of 12 at the beginning of their affair, was so outrageous that the sheer delicacy and also the wit of the writing was hardly commented on. Lolita was not, in fact, about sex - it was about love and it was about erotic emotion, not any kind of pornography. Humbert is one of the most self-aware narrators in contemporary fiction, and mocks, and derides, and lashes himself with wonderful energy. He sees himself as others see him and is merciless in attacking what he is doing to Lolita, quite clear-eyed about what she is doing to herself. This reviewer has never been able to find in any of Nabokov's other work quite the vitality, and beauty there is in this extraordinary novel. (Kirkus UK) This copy has a slight lean on the spine, but is otherwise in very good condition for it's age, with clean tight pages. It has a small dedication in ink from it's original owners - "To George from Margaret". If you require more information about this book - please email us
