Description:
Constable 1979 (1st UK). 1st Edition . Hardcover. Fine. A wonderful copy of Birkin's sensitively written story of J. M. Barrie's relationship with the four sons of Sylvia and Arthur Llewellyn Davies who, after the death of their parents, he adopted and raised. Some modern commentators have suggested that Barrie's relationship with the boys was exploitative or sexual in nature but the evidence presented in this book shows a lonely man, still affected by the death of his older brother in childhood, who had an almost magical vision of childhood which he was able to share with the boys. Andrew Birkin, wrote this book after he had produced the award winning television mini series of the same name. Includes a laid in postcard of the Michael Llewelyn Davies photo cover art, with both book and postcard being extensively signed and dedicated by the author. Slight rubbing to top of postcard and two pin holes. Fine in a Fine d/w.

Macmillan 1998 (1st UK). First Edition . Hardcover. Fine. First edition, first printing. Signed by the author to the title page. Second part of The Commonwealth Saga, published in two halves: Pandora's Star and Judas Unchained. Set approximately 300 years later in the same universe as Misspent Youth, it explores the social effects of the almost complete elimination of the experience of death following widespread use of the rejuvenation technique described in Misspent Youth. In somewhat similar style to Night's Dawn, Hamilton also outlines, in detail, a universe with a small number of distinct alien species interacting essentially peacefully and who suddenly become faced with an increasingly ominous external threat. The saga focuses on wormhole technology and the first expansion in the space nearer to earth. 15 key new worlds are established. Fine in a Fine d/w.
