Description:
Norkinshot Press, 1999. First Edition, Limited . Twine-bound Wraps. Fine. 6" x 9. A Signed and inscribed copy of the Limited Edition, being number 28 of 108. Another exquisite hand-made Franz Kamin chapbook, this one having - attached to its front cover - a wreath of twigs bound by a black and silver ribbon, bound with black twine. This quasi-autobiographical reverie mixes Kamin's poetic adventurousness with his alchemical curiosity, dangerously. Its opening lines: "Now She has one. All the other girls in her school have had theirs for a long time. She had been the only one. The boys, of course, didn't need any. They had their Things - Which would eventually do it for them." 12 pages in covers. CONDITION: a bright, solid, unmarked, uncreased copy with no apparent shelf-wear, stored in a clear, protective polypropylene bag and shipped in secure packaging so as not to damage the cover "sculpture".

New York: St. Martin's Press, 1992. Uncorrected Proofs . Large Softcover. Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. This is an "Uncorrected Proofs" copy - often referred to as an "Advance Reading Copy" [or ARC] and an "Unedited, Uncorrected Page Proof" - fast becoming an attractive collectible, as it precedes the First Edition. The eponymous bead is not an 8th-century Benedictine monk but a ruby given to anagrammatic heroine Leila Aluja by her second husband, the most powerful man in the history of Hollywood. Leila, daughter of an Iraqi-born U.S. congressman with Mafia ties, starts as a 1970s Red-hunter, turns into a movie star, then a Madonna-ish rock star, then a president-advising lobbyist-lawyer, and finally the head of a worldwide fast-food empire. Along the way she marries a Sino-Albanian spymaster; then the Hollywood agent; next a gun-lobby exec who turns serial killer, and last a Columbia University professor of Irish studies. 294 pages.…
