New York: Simon and Schuster, 1961. First edition, first printing. Folio. Original brown cloth and dust jacket (not price-clipped). Minor edgewear to dust jacket, else fine in a fine dust jacket. Increasingly uncommon with dust jacket in this condition.. Gnoli, Domenico. Beautiful first edition of Domenico Gnoli's (1933-1970) modern fairy tale about a melancholy prince who discovers how to smile. Gnoli was a renowned Italian painter and stage designer best known for his surrealist pop art and canvas work featuring extremely scaled paintings of folds, patterns, and textures. Gnoli's more surrealist and fantastical illustrations, sketches, and etchings recall the famed works of Edward Gorey (with which Gnoli's works were sometimes confused)-and Gnoli's talent for the surreal and fantastic are on full display in his most popular and treasured book, Orestes or the Art of Smiling. Equal parts fairy tale and work of art, Gnoli's 1961 book tells the tale of Orestes, young Prince of Terramafiusa, and how he…

Summary: "The Bone People, first published in 1984 by Spiral, New Zealand. About this book: The Bone People is an unusual story of love. It is unusual in the telling, the subject matter, and the form of love that the story depicts. This is in no way a romance; it is filled with violence, fear, and twisted emotions. At the story's core, however, are three people who struggle very hard to figure out what love is and how to find it. Hulme won New Zealand's Pegasus Prize for Literature (1984) for The Bone People. Then the book went on to win the prestigious Booker Prize (1985).
