- first
The First UK Printing published by Stephen Swift in 1911 (nd). The BOOK is in Very Good++ condition. A relatively cheap production from a small publisher. Moderate pushing at the spine ends. Gilt titling slightly dulled. A little loss at the upper spine hinge. The lower front corner is rounded and may be a production fault or how it was actually published. Some very light age related markings and wear. The binding remains tight. The text block is only lightly toned. One previous owner's name to the front pastedown. Blind stamp 'Presentation copy' to the title page. Housed in a custom solander box with gilt titling by Temple Bookbinders. Published by the ill-fated Stephen Swift (aka Charles Granville) who ended up imprisoned for bigamy and his publishing company liquidated in 1912. This first printing is only one of 500 copies. This edition was followed by two further reprints of 500 copies in January and in May/June 1912. The title was then not republished until 1926 after the author's death, when her husband John Middleton Murry had it reprinted. Extremely scarce with such attributes. The first time we have handled such a copy. Ashton Rare Books welcomes direct contact.

New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1922. Signed and Numbered First. Hardcover. Very Good with no dust jacket/No Dustjacket. From the signed, limited, numbered first printing, this is number 266, signed by the author at the limitation page opposite the full title. The pages are bright saving some toning around the deckled edges and quite clean except for a very few scattered spots of foxing; no owners' marks; the quarter cloth binding leans gently to the right but remains tight; the paper boards and paper title plate at the spine show some chipping around the edges, with a pressure mark at the bottom right front corner, a small inward turn and surface scuff at the top left rear corner, and some surface creasing at the corners and right edge of the title plate; some fading is also evident along the head edges of the paper and along the right rear, and the title plate is age-toned; nonetheless, a remarkably clean and attractive book, well-preserved. 459pp.; an extra copy of the title plate is tipped in at the…

New York:: Jonathan Cape & Harrison Smith,, 1931.. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Very Good Plus copy in blue cloth binding that shows offsetting of the jacket design to the boards in a Very Good plus, unclipped dustjacket with some darkening and shallow edge wear to the spine along with two closed edge tears on the front panel. "These 13" was published during Faulkner's most productive and important period (1928-32), for his short story career. The stories in These 13 are arranged to present the shared themes and clarified problems, which lead Faulkner in the direction of his next novel Light in August. Of the thirteen stories in this collection, "Victory," "Ad Astra," "All the Dead Pilots," "Crevasse," "A Justice," "Mistral," "Divorce in Naples," and "Carcassonne" are published here for the first time.

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.
