Description:
Santa Rosa::: Black Sparrow Press,,, 1985... Limited Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Near Fine acetate dust jacket.. Th1/176 numbered copies. 1933 Was a Bad Year is a posthumously published novel by John Fante, who died in 1983. "1933" tells the story of Dominic Molise, a 17-year old Italian-American living in Colorado. While his father, an out-of-work bricklayer, seeks to alleviate the family's poverty by earning money at the pool tables, Dominic dreams of becoming a successful baseball player. "1933" is a superb slice of American life; both funny and sad. The book is full of vivid characters and memorable scenes and offers a pungent taste of the Italian-American experience as it explores such issues as the gulf between immigrant parents and their American-born children.

Description:
San Francisco:: City Lights Books,, 1973.. First Printing of the City Lights edition. . A Near Fine copy, with no writing or marking to the text. Bukowski uses his own life as the plot of this series and leaves nothing out. The different stories range from hooking up with a stranger's wife who invited him over for dinner to admire his work, to debating with other authors of the underground newspaper. Bukowski goes through life and each event without caring about what might be the consequence of his actions. He is almost always alone aside from the occasional prostitute that he invites over. A few times, generous people who admire his writings will allow him to stay with them rent free. He does not understand why people enjoy his writings so much. As soon as he starts to get too close to these families or hosts he will leave without notice and go on to find a new place to stay. Bukowski does whatever he wants when he wants without wondering what people might think of him. However he does mention that… Read More

Description:
New York:: St. Martin's,, 2000.. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine, bright unclipped three-quarter sheet dust jacket (as issued). This is the last unpublished manuscript found in Brautigan's possessions after his suicide and exhibits his playful style and his comic insights into the life around him. Dark, funny, and exquisitely haunting, his final book-length fiction explores the fragile, mysterious shadowland surrounding death. Told with classic Brautigan wit, poetic style, and mordant irony, An Unfortunate Woman assumes the form of a peripatetic journal chronicling the protagonist's travels and oblique ruminations on the suicide of one woman, and a close friend's death from cancer.
