BOWLES, Jane (1917-1973)

Plain Pleasures

London, Peter Owen, 1966. First Edition. Hardcover. Correct first printing (with misprint of extra "one" on p. 126, line 15) of Bowles's only short stories, collecting "Plain pleasures," "Everything is nice," "A Guatemalan idyll," "Camp cataract," "A day in the open," "A quarrelling pair," and "A stick of green candy," ranging in place from North Africa to South American. Slim crown 8vo (185 x 116mm): 184pp. Original publisher's pale blue cloth, spine stamped in red; illustrated dust jacked by Keith Cunningham, priced 25s. An exemplary example, jacket mildly dust-soiled, else tight, square, and clean and bright throughout, only lightly read (if at all). Two of the short stories in this collection, "A Guatemalan Idyll" and "A Day in the Open," originally were conceived as part of Bowles's only novel, Two Serious Women. But her husband, the composer and writer Paul Bowles, advised her to remove them from the novel and publish them separately. Typically in Bowles's stories, as in "A Guatemalan Idyll." several plots are interwoven with inexplicable events and symbolic details into a multilayered narrative. Here, a woman has an affair with an unnamed male traveler; her daughter lets loose a snake in the middle of town, where it is squashed by a bus; accompanying the daughter is a boy whose head is wounded from falling on a rusty nail; later, the woman falls asleep near a convent, then seduces the boy who wakes her; the story ends when the traveler departs. The companion piece, "A Day in the Open," is no less puzzling, in its use of language and nontraditional narrative techniques. In an oft quoted review of her collected works ("Up from the Underground," The New York Times Book Review, February 29, 1967, p. 5), the poet John Asbury called Bowles "one of the finest modern writers of fiction, in any language."

BOWLES, Paul (1910-1999)

The Spider's House

London, Macdonald, 1957. First Edition. Hardcover. First Printing of Bowles's third novel, set in Fez during the anti-colonial uprisings against the French. Crown 8vo (196 x 127mm): 384pp. Publisher's orange cloth, spine lettered in gold; dust jacket illustrated by Stein and printed in black, blue, and orange. An excellent example (spine ends bumped; price-clipped dust jacket, very lightly rubbed with lower panel dust-soiled), tightly bound and clean throughout. Miller A7b. Bowles set this, his third novel, in the medieval walled city of Fez in the Moroccan interior. The city had always fascinated Bowles. As a young man, he found it "ten times stranger and bigger and brighter" than Tangier. "I felt that [in Fez] at last I had left the world behind, and the resulting excitement was well-nigh unbearable." The Spider's House focuses on the city's orthodox Islamic culture. "In this tale, the center of attention shifts from two Americans, superficial visitors in Fez, to Amar, the illiterate son of an Islamic religious healer, who watches his traditional world fall apart in the conflict between the French and the forces of Moroccan nationalism. The title of the novel echoes a passage from the Koran: 'The likeness of those who choose other patrons than Allah is as the likeness of the spider when she taketh unto herself a house, and lo! The frailest of all houses is the spider's house, if they but knew.' Ironically, the religious certainty expressed in the passage is eroded by the events of the insurrection. The devout Muslim becomes, like the American protagonists of Bowles's first two novels, a nowhere man." (Literary Encyclopedia) N. B.

BOWLES, Jane (1917-1973)

Two Serious Ladies

New York, Alfred A. Knopf, 1943. First Edition. Hardcover. First Printing of Bowles's only novel, a modernist cult classic (Tennessee Williams named it his favorite book), written in singular, spare, elliptical prose. 8vo (197 x 135mm): [6],271,[1]pp. Publisher's tan cloth lettered and decorated in red, top edge stained red, fore- and bottom edges untrimmed, illustrated dust jacket priced 2.50. About Fine (spine ends bumped, usual darkening to end sheets, bit of shelf wear to bottom edge, brief professional restoration to head of jacket's spine, but an exemplary example), tight, fresh and bright. Jane Sidney Auer married composer and writer Paul Bowles in 1938, and for a time they lived in a boardinghouse with, among others, Richard Wright, Carson McCullers, Benjamin Britten, and Gypsy Rose Lee. "Bowles deliberately constructed Two Serious Ladies without a plot. Its title characters, one sinful and victimized, the other virtuous and domineering, meet only twice; their lives are presented alternately, in a style praised for its wit."

BOYD, William

An Ice-Cream War [Signed]

London, Hamish Hamilton, 1982. First Edition. Hardcover. First Impression, signed by Boyd on the title page. 8vo: [12],363,[1]pp. Publisher's navy blue cloth, spine stamped gilt, illustrated dust jacket priced 7.95. About Fine (minor speckling on top edge) and probably unread, in About Fine jacket very mildly (almost imperceptibly) faded to spine panel. Boyd's second novel, An Ice-Cream War was conceived as an antiwar satire, "directed not only at the incongruities of war, but also at the inefficiency of the British army during the African campaigns. [As millions are slaughtered on the Western Front, a ridiculous and little-reported campaign is being waged in East Africa—a campaign that continued even after the Armistice because no one told them to stop.] Unlike A Good Man in Africa, An Ice-Cream War does not focus on a single character but on several central ones, among whom Felix Cobb [who] Boyd uses as a vehicle to attack a society anchored in the past."

"The White Horses of Vienna" was first published in Harper's magazine, in 1935, and won the O. Henry Award for best story that year.

Soft creases to wrappers, else about Fine. Burgess 99, p. 66 (of "considerable historical interest," citing its "hypergamy [or bedding a woman from a class superior to one's own"]). On publication of this, his first novel, Braine was classed among the Angry Young Men, the mostly working- and middle-class British playwrights and novelists (including John Osborne and Kingsley Amis) who rose to prominence in the 1950s. Room at the Top, "although set in 1946, seemed to speak to the mood of Britain in the later 1950s, to a society throwing off deference and austerity and reaching out to new experiences. But in Room these new experiences were not primarily sexual or quasi-mystical, in the manner of the Beat Generation or the existentialists; Braine's protagonist, Joe Lampton, was no dropout; he unashamedly wanted in, into money and material possessions and social acceptance. In key respects, he was a harbinger of the Yuppies, the brash young upwardly mobile professionals of the 1980s, but living in a society more strongly marked by class divisions and deprivation and overshadowed by a residual puritanism that frowned on both overt materialism and open sexuality." (Literary Encyclopedia) The 1959 film adaptation was undertaken by Neil Paterson, with uncredited work by Mordecai Richler. N. B.

BRANDT, Bill (1904-1983)

[Photobook] Perspective of Nudes

New York, Amphoto, 1961. Hardcover. First Edition of this seminal work in which Brandt's "formal inventiveness and keen eye for the surreal are most evident." (Roth 101) With preface by Lawrence Durrell and introduction by Chapman Mortimer. Squarish royal 8vo (275 x 240mm): 14,[2], with 90 numbered gravure plates (some double-page) divided by six numbered leaves into chronological sections. Publisher's patterned paper-covered boards, spine and upper cover lettered in red; photographically illustrated dust jacket printed in red and black and priced $7.95. Fine, tightly bound and clean throughout; about Fine jacket (skillful, almost imperceptible restoration to crown of spine). Parr & Badger 1, 216. Roth (101 Books), pp 160-61. Roth (Open Book), p. 188-89. Auer, p. 408. Brandt began study of the nude in 1945 and continued off and on until his death, in 1983 (for a broader but less in-depth survey, see our copy on offer of Nudes:1945-1980). But the series of nudes he made between 1947 and 1960 is especially renowned. "These startling images rewrote the language of nude photography . Brandt's approach was primarily formal, but his own sensibilities, combined with photography's tendency to overwhelm form's purity with life's impurities, ensured that his nudes are as interesting for their psychological undertones as for the wealth of unexpected forms he conjured. He did so with a camera that was devoid of a practicable viewing mechanism [a shutterless old Kodak he found in a secondhand shop] and thus reduced him, in effect, to working by blind instinct. At close range, his ancient camera yields a Venusian giantism, where sometimes sharply defined, sometimes blurred mountains of flesh loom over the artist/observer." (Parr & Badger) Perspective of Nudes is divided into six chronological sections reflecting Brandt's evolving approach, in both Kensington and Hampstead mansion flats and in open air. The early photographs "conjure a dream world of skewed perspectives [the product of the camera's wide-angle lens] in which his nude female subjects appeared to float unanchored or loom like giants." In later photos, taken on the Sussex and Normandy coasts, Brandt saw the body as a "monumental outgrowth of the landscape, serene and sculptural." (Roth 101) N. B.

This episode opens with Aubrey and Maturin preparing for a diplomatic mission to the Sultan of Pulo Prabang, a fictitious, piratical Malay state in the South China Sea, to convey the envoy who will attempt to persuade the Sultan to become an English rather than French ally. Much of the action centers on the indiscretions of two English traitors—Wray and Ledward—who are assisting the French and for which they are ultimately assassinated. The title refers to the honor, a thirteen-gun salute, due the English envoy as a representative of the King.

O'Brien's momentous debut, banned in Ireland because of sexual content, "charts the progress of two young Irish girls, Kate and Baba, as they escape their rural home place for the relative cosmopolitanism of Dublin. It is no accident that, in the first novel, a turning point in Kate's development is marked by her acquisition of a copy of Joyce's Dubliners [Joyce was hugely influential in O'Brien's writing life, and in 1999 she wrote a biography of him ]. When asked late in his life if he would ever return to Ireland, Joyce gave the famously enigmatic reply, 'Have I ever left it?', and Edna O'Brien's relationship with her home country is complicated in ways that are similarly fraught and complex."

"Louis Bromfield was a Midwestern-American writer and farmer whose wide-ranging career, straddling the literary, the commercial, and the agricultural, spanned over four decades from 1920-1956. Twenty-Four Hours shifted from his earlier style [influenced by such epic, Victorian authors as Dickens, Thackeray, and Galsworthy] by fusing Victorian, middlebrow, and modernist themes and techniques. Bromfield's reputation as a literary author was largely overlooked. He was remembered, instead, for his nature/agricultural writing and experimental farming at Malabar. In recent years, however, critical interest has started to address this imbalance . Perhaps, in light of this new interest, Bromfield's literary and cultural significance in twentieth century American literary history will begin to emerge." (Literary Encyclopedia) N. B.
