Condition good in yellow boards with black cloth spine, the spine has been wet and stained the inside of the DJ which is in good condition, clean tight 1st edition. From Publishers Weekly In content and in style, this tres gay sequel to Eighty-Sixed is a mixed bag--a smart drawstring purse, as man-hungry protagonist B.J. Rosenthal might say. Spanning the period from January 1985 to June 1990 (with a coyly prophetic appendix, "After the Cure"), the novel chronicles amatory capers overshadowed by the specter of AIDS. "I might as well buy condolence cards wholesale, " laments B.J., who himself tests positive for the virus. Morbidity, however, is intermittently kept at bay by a dizzying parade of B.J. 's friends and paramours, whose dishy dialogue frequently makes them indistinguishable from one another. Confusing, too, are some of the time sequences: Feinberg's tangents have tangents, and he often seems to be writing in never-ending parenthetical asides. The tone is giddily and unremittingly New York, and the parade of retro repartee ("pure as the driven slush") wears thin. Feinberg reins in the one-liners as the tone grows less determinedly fey, and there is real poignancy in one character's final days. While B.J. 's droll tone is ingratiating, readers may wish his voice were more consistent and less capricious. Copyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc. From Library Journal B.J. Rosenthal, the neurotic and witty hero of Feinberg's successful first novel Eighty-Sixed ( LJ 11/1/88), is back, continuing his tale of life in the post-AIDS gay community of New York. Amidst the "constant tide of deaths, " B.J. tests positive for HIV antibodies, attends ACT UP meetings, has phone sex, begins taking AZT, gets arrested in a protest, and attempts to tell his mother about his seropositive status. All the while, he searches for a boyfriend, "hopefully with a life expectancy longer than that of my five-day deodorant. ".

Condition very good in oatmeal boards with black cloth spine, DJ good with slight chipping top and bottom edges, clean tight 5th printing, BOMC alternate. From Publishers Weekly: Known to discerning readers for his beguiling Deptford Trilogy and the more recent Rebel Angels, Canadian author Davies has written another irresistible novel. His story of the secret life of Francis Cornish, full of ironic twists and surprises, has the added enticement of a look inside the rarefied world of art experts and restorers. There is even a hint of the thriller genre, since Cornish joins British Intelligence to participate in an international scheme to defraud the Nazis of Old Masters. But this is primarily a character study, built around the theme: "what's bred in the bone comes out in the flesh, " with the corollary that suffering endured when one is young builds character for later achievements. Born into an eccentric, wealthy Canadian family in a backwoods town, enduring a lonely and suffocatingly pious upbringing, Cornish eventually becomes a respected art appraiser and collector, at the sacrifice of his considerable talent as a painter. In addition to the tantalizing story of how this comes about, related with elements of intrigue and mystery, Davies delivers a wickedly funny, trenchant dissection of provincial society and some witty observations about religion and art.

Condition very good in tan boards with gold cloth spine, DJ very good, clean tight stated 1st American Edition. From Library Journal: Carter's short stories demand a certain amount of complicity; they echo and reverberate for the reader who has some knowledge of Edgar Allan Poe, of Baudelaire, of Lizzie Borden, of myth and folktale. In "The Fall River Axe Murders" the reader must remember that Lizzie Borden murdered her father and stepmother. Carter's story, which covers Lizzie's life in the few weeks preceding her bloody act, meticulously reproduces life in Fall River: the clothes Lizzie wore, the house she lived in, relationships in the doomed family. "The Kiss" takes us to Samarkand and the myth of Tamburlaine and his wife; "Peter and the Wolf" deals in an original way with the folktale of a human child raised by wolves. Carter's smooth, silky stories are rich with sensuous detail. The reader feels the heat, sees the fabric of clothes, walks the streets of the cities Carter recreates. Recommended.
