David Golder
Horace Liveright New York 1930. Hardcoverno dustjacket. Reading copy. There pages are clean except for some slight damp stain at the outside edge of some pages. The half-cloth binding has some staining mostly to the orange front paper cover. The corners are bumped the spine is cocked and there is a small tear to the crown of the binding.

For years he has defended his business interests from cutthroat competitors. Now his health is beginning to show the strain. As his body betrays him so too do his wife and child leaving him to decide which to pursue: revenge or altruism The novel is an astonishing portrayal of a businessman and his family in the years leading up to the Great Depression. "A novelist of the very first order perceptive to a fault and sly in her emotional restraint." -Evening Standard. Horace Liveright, New York, 1930 hardcover

For A Sack Of Bones
Harcourt Inc. Orlando: 2008. Softcover. Good condition. Uncorrected Proof. This story among many other things is about two men who are gone from the world but are still very much mine. Their deaths occurred after the fighting stopped but the war still got them in the end. This story is also about keeping promises. And it's about revenge. After eight years in exile Sergeant Genis Aleu returns to the city of Barcelona bearing the mark of a man who has seen many battles�and who has one last mission ahead of him. A soldier in the infamous foreign legion Aleu cuts a fearsome figure as he negotiates around the paranoid and suspicious citizens of Franco's Spain single-mindedly trying to fulfill his father's dying wish. But beneath the gruff and gritty life of a legionnaire are echoes of Niso�Aleu as a young boy in a charity orphanage�and Niso's passionate devotion to his family the ideals of his country and the possibility of a better future. Now as the people of Spain struggle to survive under the thumb of Fascist oppression Aleu hurtles toward his own reckoning with the truth of war and the dangerous effects of living a lie.

Nahman Of Bratslav: The Tales
Paulist Press New York / Mahwah: 1978. Softcover. reading copy. Small coffee stains on backcover and several blank pages at end of book. Gift inscription on first inside page. The body of this book is comprised of the thirteen Tales of Rabbi Nahman of Bratslav one of the most renowned of the early Hasidic masters of prayer and probably the greatest of the Hasidic storytellers. These tales are presented in a style both readable and scrupulously close to the original. No previous translators of these tales have attempted to take the original text this seriously for they changed added and deleted at will. As the editor of the volume states in his Foreword "Of the thousands of Hasidic tales circulated in the past two centuries few have earned the veneration and affection of the thirteen Tales of Nahman of Bratslav . . . Still studied as scripture these tales have attracted a varied audience intrigued by the remarkable blend of intense Kabbalistic faith and narrative artistry." Includes an Index. Translated into English from the Yiddish. ISBN: 0809121034. Paulist Press, New York / Mahwah: 1978 paperback
