Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Amis has no faults. He is clever, witty, ironical' GuardianWhat advice can one give a green young author What purpose do literary prizes serve Where on earth can a man get a decent bite to eat This entertaining collection is vintage Kingsley Amis, revealing him at his most robust and incisive, cutting a swathe through such subjects as writers and writing, 'Abroad', eating and drinking, music, language and education. He turns a clear and critical eye on Evelyn Waugh, Anthony Powell, Anthony Burgess, Ian Fleming and Philip Larkin, and does not spare their potential readers in 'Sod the Public: A Consumer's Guide'. In typically razor-sharp, wicked and witty prose, Amis tackles the culture and conceits of his era.

Inscribed and signed by Kingsley Amis: "Very good fortune/ Michael Curtis/ from Kingsley Amis" (on the title page) Michael Curtis was editor of the liberal News Chronicle at the age of 34. His opposition to the Suez Invasion led to the paper taking a significant hit in popularity. His attempts to modernize the paper fell afoul of the owners, the Cadbury family, and he resigned in 1957 after three years. He then worked as executive press aide to the Aga Khan, founding the Daily Nation, which played a major role in helping smooth Kenya's transition to independence in 1963. He worked for the Aga Kahn's social welfare institution until his retirement. Black cloth stamped in gold on spine. A good to very good copy, with moderate foxing on upper edge of front and rear flyleaves, spine is askew, most pages of text have a moderate and uneven vertical crease near fore-edge margin (otherwise printed text is fresh and clean), in very good dust jacket. Jacket has light wear at tips of spine (with one small tear), with moderate foxing along upper edge of front and rear flaps, else quite fresh and bright.

First edition of the omnibus edition of Edna O'Brien's The Country Girls Trilogy. Octavo, original half cloth. Signed by the author on the title page. From the library of Erica Jong. Jong remains best known for her 1973 novel Fear of Flying which became famously controversial for its portrayal of female sexuality and figured prominently in the development of second-wave feminism. Written in the first person and narrated by its protagonist, 29-year-old American poet Isadora Wing, Fear of Flying was written in the throes of the Sexual Revolution of the 1970s and encapsulated the movementâs redefinition of female sexuality. In interviews, Jong stated: âAt the time I wrote Fear of Flying, there was not a book that said women are romantic, women are intellectual, women are sexualâ"and brought all those things together⦠What [Isadora is] looking for is how to be a whole human being, a body and a mind, and that is what women were newly aware they needed in 1973.â The novel remains a feminist classic and has sold more than 20 million copies worldwide. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Jacqueline Schuman. Irish novelist Edna O'Brien's first novel, The Country Girls (1960), is often credited with breaking silence on sexual matters and social issues during a repressive period in Ireland following the Second World War and was adapted into a 1983 film. It was followed by two sequels The Lonely Girl (1962), and Girls in Their Married Bliss (1964). The trilogy was re-released in 1986 in a single volume with a revised ending to Girls in Their Married Bliss and addition of an epilogue. All three novels were banned by the Irish censorship board and faced significant public disdain in Ireland. O'Brien won the Kingsley Amis Award in 1962 for The Country Girls.
