London: Herbert Jenkins, 1940. First edition. Hardcover. Good +. P.G. Wodehouse Quick Service first edition book is for sale. This rare wartime P.G. Wodehouse book was published by Herbert Jenkins in 1940, confirmed to the Copyright Page, comes in its original dark red cloth and measures 5¼ x 7½ inches. This book conforms to P.G. Wodehouse A Comprehensive Bibliography by Eileen McIlvaine (A63). The original binding is in Good condition being mottled over time and with fading to the gilt lettering to the spine. But the binding is complete and structurally sound. There are 252 numbered pages with 4 pages of advertisements to the end of the book. The pages are in overall Very Good condition but lacks the blank front free endpaper and blank rear endpaper, and there are cracks to the hinges to the front and rear of the book that are cosmetic since the pages are still firmly bound into the book. Quick Service is a scarce and collectable P.G. Wodehouse first edition book.

Straight, tight and clean with no wear or markings in bright, pictorial card covers, no dustjacket as issued. The pieces in this collection, written between 1956 and 1961 and including short fiction, a radio play, and a stunning early novel, offer startling insights into Cohens imagination and creative process. Cohen explores themes that would permeate his later work, from shame and unworthiness to sexual desire in all its sacred and profane dimensions to longing, whether for love, family, freedom, or transcendence.

Description:
New York: Random House, 1959. Book. Illus. by Sam March (dust jacket design). Very Good. Hardcover. First Edition.. Small octavo. Humes's second novel, following 'The Underground City,' both of which led to his being considered by Esquire magazine as having the same promise as two obscure guys named Updike and Styron (whoever they are). Anyway, he met a guy named Leary who introduced him to a little substance known as LSD, and after seriously indulging his fondness for the hallucinogen he became a trifle paranoid and a bit delusional, which pretty much ended his writing career. Humes was co-founder (with Peter Matthiessen and George Plimpton) of The Paris Review. He died of prostate cancer in 1992. Black cloth w/gilt lettering, 184 pages. Mildly cocked, light general wear, in price-clipped dust jacket w/light rubbing, light edgewear, creases to fore-edges of both flaps..
