Santa Barbara, CA: Black Sparrow Press, 1982. First, signed edition. Condition: Near fine in clear acetate dust jacket as issued by the publisher. A few very light bumps at corners, small mark at bottom corner of a few pages around the middle of the books, could be ink bleed. Acetate dust jacket has slight rubbing. Signed by Bowles and numbered, number 233 of 350 copies.Synopsis: Set in Fez, Morocco, during that country's 1954 nationalist uprising, The Spider's House is perhaps Paul Bowles' most beautifully subtle novel, richly descriptive of its setting, and uncompromising in its characterizations. Exploring once again the dilemma of the outsider in an alien society, and the gap in understanding between cultures—recurrent themes of Bowles' writings—The Spider's House is dramatic, brutally honest, and shockingly relevant to today's political situation in the Middle East and elsewhere.

John Lehman, London, 1952. First edition, UK. Condition: Very good in good dust jacket. Book has light toning, unobtrusive previous owners name in ink on last page, slight bumping at corners and spine. Dust jacket has edge wear and creasing, dust shadow and light soiling on rear cover, tears at top edge, price clipped. Blue-gray cloth, with titles stamped in maroon on spine.In Let It Come Down, Paul Bowles plots the doomed trajectory of Nelson Dyar, a New York bank teller who comes to Tangier in search of a different life and ends up giving in to his darkest impulses. Rich in descriptions of the corruption and decadence of the International Zone in the last days before Moroccan independence, Bowles's second novel is an alternately comic and horrific account of a descent into nihilism.

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.
