[HALIBURTON, THOMAS CHANDLER]

The Attaché; or Sam Slick in England (New Revised Edition)

New York: Dick and Fitzgerald, [c.1870s-1900s]. Hardcover. An undated, revised edition of Thomas Chandler Haliburton's humorous 1843 novel. This work was one of several featuring the author's Sam Slick character, whose sayings became popular. Some of them, such as "it's raining cats and dogs", "quick as a wink", and "facts are stranger than fiction", though attributed to Sam Slick, probably preceded him. Haliburton was a Nova Scotia judge who emigrated to England. His name does not appear in this book, which might have been published c.1870s-1900s. --- In gold cloth covers with illustrations and titling in blind to cover and spine. An entry in publisher's "Library of Sam Slick's Works". --- The covers are coated in clear hard shell glaze and spine titling isn't especially readable. Interior is relatively bright, but with usual foxing to leaves, darkened corner of front cover. Front free endpaper with a couple of open tears; dampstains to most leaves. Scarce in this edition.; 12mo (7 to 7-1/2 in. tall); 359 pages. Good+ with no dust jacket .

Farewell, my lovely

Penguin Books. Paperback. Pp: 252. A warm day on Central Avenue, and Philip Marlowe's hunch about the man beside him is as vague as the heat waves that dance above the sidewalk. The way business is looking, even a hunch is enough. Moose Malloy stands six five and one-half and weighs two hundred and sixty-four pounds, without his necktie. After eight years in the pen, he wants little Velma back, and no cops or mobsters are ready to stand in his way. Marlowe's tough enough for the ride, but he can't help thinking there's never been a happy ending to the story of beauty and the beast. ISBN: 9780140109795. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Ingrid. Ingrid Bergman. Een persoonlijk levensverhaal

Archipel, 2008. Paperback. Pp: 341. Ingrid Bergman was de ster in filmklassiekers als Casablanca, Notorious en Murder on the Orient Express. Ze schitterde naast Hollywoodiconen als Humphrey Bogart, Cary Grant, en Anthony Quinn en werkte onder meer met regisseurs Federico Fellini en Alfred Hitchcock. Charlotte Chandler kende Ingrid Bergman goed, ze sprak niet alleen met haar over haar leven en carrire, maar interviewde ook haar kinderen, haar tegenspelers en regisseurs en natuurlijk haar tweede echtgenoot, Roberto Rosselini. Zo brengt ze het verhaal tot leven van de vrouw die in haar geboorteland Zweden al een filmster was voordat ze Hollywood stormenderhand veroverde in de jaren veertig, waarna het schandaal rond de relatie met Rosselini haar carrire in de jaren vijftig bijna de das om deed. Voor het eerst is Bergman nu zelf aan het woord over die affaire, maar vooral over haar grootse carrire en haar fascinerende, intense leven. Trefw.://Biografieën /. ISBN: 9789063053406.

Ingrid

Applause Theatre & Cinema Books, 2008. Paperback. Pp: 334. The first time in paperback, this book is a personal biography of the beloved star of Casablanca. Ingrid Bergman (1915-1982) was perhaps best known for her roles in Casablanca and Notorious, but she won three Oscars for Gaslight, Anastasia, and Murder on the Orient Express, and was a seven-time nominee. She also won two Emmy Awards and a Tony. In 1949, though married and a mother, she fell in love with director Roberto Rossellini and conceived a child with him. Her fans were shocked and she was denounced on the floor of the U.S. Senate. Chandler interviewed Bergman, Roberto Rossellini, Alfred Hitchcock, Martin Scorsese, Cary Grant, Michelangelo Antonioni, Federico Fellini, and Gregory Peck for the book, which contains synopses of all her films, including the Swedish ones.

Lady in the Lake

Penguin, 2011. Paperback. Pp: 283. 'Everything was quiet and sunny and calm. No cause for excitement whatever. It's only Marlowe, finding another body. He does it rather well by now. Murder-a-day Marlowe, they call him.' Private Investigator Philip Marlowe is hired to find a missing woman. Derace Kingsley's wife ran away to Mexico to get a divorce and marry a hunk named Chris Lavery. Or so the note she left her husband says. Trouble is, when Philip Marlowe asks Lavery about it he denies everything. But when Marlowe next encounters Lavery, he's denying nothing - on account of the two bullet holes in his heart. Now Marlowe's on the trail of a killer, who leads him out of smoggy Los Angeles all the way to a murky mountain lake. The Lady in the Lake is Raymond Chandler's fourth novel featuring laconic PI Philip Marlowe. 'Chandler's best novels carry the crime story to levels of artistry that have rarely been matched' Daily Mail 'Chandler grips the mind from the first sentence' Daily Telegraph 'One of the greatest crime writers, who set standards others still try to attain' Sunday Times 'Chandler is an original stylist, creator of a character as immortal as Sherlock Holmes' Anthony Burgess.
