THE BLACK BOOK - SIGNED
London: Faber & Faber 1995. First Edition. New. First Printing of Pamuk's second novel. The book is Fine with barely a trace of the usual darkening to the paper on the top edge. The jacket is also Fine with the original price of UK 14.99 net unclipped. It bears some pretty simplistic yet strikingly different artwork than that of the American edition published by FSG a year earlier. There is an imperceptible trace of lightening to the red on the spine. This copy has been signed boldly in black by Pamuk the first Turkish winner of the Nobel Prize. A mystery novel set in Istanbul involving an amateur sleuth missing persons and investigative journalists. Considerably less common than the American edition. Faber & Faber unknown

Svevo Italo novel; Michel Paul Henri translation
Z�NO CONFESSIONS OF ZENO
Paris: Gallimard 1927. First French Edition. First Impression one of 850 numbered copies printed for le Amis de l'Edition Originale this being copy no.343. Octavo 19cm; original printed wrappers; 364 4pp. Hint of sunning to spine with faint scattered foxing to preliminary pages; signatures uncut; about Fine. Svevo self-published La Coscienza di Zeno in Italy in 1923 where it went largely unnoticed. The novel would likely have vanished into obscurity if it were not for the efforts of Svevo's friend James Joyce who championed the work and using his Parisian contacts helped to have the novel translated into French and published by Gallimard in 1927. The French First precedes both English translations of the novel by three years. A superior copy of one of the great Italian novels of the last century and reportedly Joyce's favorite book.

ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF SOLITUDE - REVIEW COPY WITH TLS FROM PUBLISHER LAID IN
New York: Harper & Row Publishers 1970. First American Edition. First Printing one of 7500 copies. Octavo; hunter green cloth with titles stamped in gilt on spine; variant with headband in olive green and yellow no established priority; dustjacket; xiii 422pp 1 blank. Faint foxing to top edge else Fine. Dustjacket is the so-called second state with a "." instead of an excalamation mark at the end of the first paragraph on the front flap; price is unclipped with some minor wear at spine ends and a few very tiny nicks and tears to extremities; bright very Near Fine example. A superlative copy of the Nobel Prize winner's masterpiece and likely the most widely-read Spanish language novel aside from 'Don Quixote.' The present example is a review copy with the publisher's typed slip laid in; the slip differs from other Harper & Row review slips from the same period in that in states "IMPORTANT: please note that this is UNCORRECTED PROOF." Also laid into this copy is a brief one page typed letter from Harper & Row publisher Cass Canfield Jr. to Dr. Howard B. Gotlieb former Director of Special Collections at Boston University. The letter is dated 21 October 1969 - some four months prior to publication of the book - and mentions the enclosure of an advance proof of 'One Hundred Years of Solitude.' It isn't lost on us that the copy these materials came to us in is not an uncorrected proof of which we presently know of exactly 2 copies. We can only surmise that these proof materials were placed into this copy of the book in-house; Canfield whose business card is also laid into the book may have decided that Gotlieb should receive a hardbound copy and not a paperbound proof and thus would have placed the materials in one of the first hard copies manufactured. Evidence supporting copies in dustjacket with the "." on the front flap being printed prior to publication is discussed at length in Don Klein's 'Gabriel Garc�a M�rquez: Una Bibliograf�a Descriptiva Tomo II.' In it Klein mentions that two editorial heads at Harper & Row received review copies directly from the printer both in jackets ending in "." Additionally the review copy received by translator Gregory Rabassa bore a jacket also ending in a "." and not the exclamation mark p.635-636. And while we are fully cognisant that review materials often migrate from copy-to-copy within the trade sufficient evidence is present that the migration here was more than likely the publisher's doing. The only such copy we have handled the only other known to us being the bibliographer's copy. Klein E2.a.1. Harper & Row, Publishers hardcover
