Description:
New York, NY Knopf, 1998. Hardcover First Edition USA; so stated First Edition USA; so stated. Fine in Near Fine DJ: Book shows binding square and secure; text clean. DJ shows only the faintest soiling; price intact; mylar-protected. Virtually 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 306pp. Translated from the German by John E. Woods. Hardback with DJ. Ever since the 1830s, when Pushkin immortalized St. Petersburg in "The Bronze Horseman," the city has been the capital of the Russian imagination. It also seems to have exerted a powerful influence on the young German writer Ingo Schulze, who celebrates this swampy metropolis in his English-language debut, 33 Moments of Happiness. Not that the author is invariably enchanted by his subject. His 33 slices of Slavic life include some definite downers, not least a bloody (yet oddly comical) shootout in a disco. For one of Schulze's narrators, in fact, St. Petersburg encapsulates all the defects of an entire… Read More

Description:
New York, NY Knopf, 1978. Hardcover First Ed, so stated. First Ed, so stated. Very Good in Very Good DJ: Both book and DJ show indications of moderate use; some very faint foxing to both. Book shows light wear to extremities; slight spine lean; faint rubbing and soiling; binding remains secure; text clean. DJ shows similar rubbing and soiling; price intact. Remains a clean, sturdy, presentable copy. NOT a Remainder. NOT a Book-Club Edition. NOT an Ex-Library copy. 8vo. 337pp. Hardback with DJ. The San Andreas Fault is both a real and a metaphorical player in this novel of northern California in the early 70s. Set on a ranch near Monterey Bay, it explores relationships in a family jarred by the return of a son from Vietnam, almost whole but shaken and confused. His return coincides with a series of bizarre killings that panic the community--a reminder that in the legendary land of promise abundant possibilities and agents of destruction live side by side.

NOT a Remainder. NOT a Book-Club Edition. NOT an Ex-Library copy. 8vo. 267pp. Winner of the 1990 Associated Writing Programs Award. Hardback with DJ. The Lies Boys Tell relates the story of Ed Reece, a dying man who convinces his middle-aged son to take him on a journey through Middle America, to end in the town where he was born. His family--his wife and children, and their spouses and children--are the primary characters in this tale, peppered with Ed's philosophical musings about life and death. Herrin's view of small-town America is pitch-perfect and insightful, populated with the denisens of fast-food joints and strip malls and by people burdened with the stifling… Read More

New York, NY Bantam Books, 1992. Hardcover First Ed; First Printing indicated. First Ed; First Printing indicated. Very Near Fine in Fine DJ: Book shows barely perceptible bumping along top front edge. Binding square and secure; text clean. Dustwrapper shows price intact. NOT a Remainder. NOT a Book-Club Edition. NOT an Ex-Library copy. 8vo. 306pp. Hardback with DJ. First published in 1992, William Hauptman's first novel (and apparently the last, though we should all hope not) came and went rather quietly. I was absorbed right away with the fictional city of Nortex, with the Drennan family, and with the nearly intangible sense of dread and disillusionment set against the backdrop of the Reagan Eighties. At the heart of this big picture is Burl's quest for meaning, symbolized by his chasing tornadoes all across the Panhandle. Hauptman is definitely a writer's writer, which is not to say he's esoteric or intimidating; if anything his prose is as clear and accessible as water. Every… Read More
