Hecht, Ben
Erik Dorn
New York & London: G.P. Putnam's Sons 1921. Hecht's first novel written prior to being the most famous screenwriter in Hollywood. It was reissued in 1962 with a surprisingly negative introduction by Nelson Algren leading to a rather nasty literary spat. No one doubts the power of Hecht's language; judge for yourself! This is a Very Good copy of the First Edition. Grayish-green cloth binding with orange titling on the spine and front cover. Clean text; 409 pages with four pages of publisher's adverts in the rear. Mildly bumped with some light rub to the head and foot of the spine which is very slightly faded. Cracking to the front paste-down but holding quite well. A solid copy lacking the dustjacket. In anarchival plastic protector. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. G.P. Putnam's Sons Hardcover

Fantazius Mallare: A Mysterious Oath. Drawings Wallace Smith
Chicago IL: Covici-McGee 1922. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Fine in Near Fine DJ. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Imprint 1922. "Ben Hecht 1894-1964 is a notable Hollywood screenwriter. He won the first screenplay Oscar for Underworld in 1927 wrote the great screwball comedies Nothing Sacred and His Girl Friday based on his play with Charles MacArthur The Front Page and worked with directors such as Howard Hawks and Alfred Hitchcock.Fantazius Mallare: A Mysterious Oath was first published in 1922 in a limited run intended for private distribution most of which ended up being seized and destroyed by the authorities. The book is generally described as being a decadent work after the manner of Joris-Karl Huysmans' À rebours although this is a lazy comparison. A novel of decadence and mystic existentialism Fantazius Mallare is a story of a mad recluse-a genius sculptor and painter who is at war with reason. Rather than commit suicide his doting madness dictates that he must revolt against all evidence of life that exists outside himself. He destroys all of his work and then seeks out a woman who will devote herself to his Omnipotence. What follows is a glorious trek into a horrifying enlightening insanity."--John Coulthart.Wallace Smith provided the illustrations for the novel which resulted in a $1000 fine for obscenity in U.S. District Court for both Hecht and Smith for his ten fantastic Beardleyesque drawings several of them depicting the sterile orgies of the novel's deluded reclusive hero. Light shelfwear and sunning to edges rubbing scuffing and wear to unclipped dj else tight bright and unmarred. 8vo.174pp. illus b/w. Bound in pale blue cloth with illustrated dj in mylar.

Humpty Dumpty
New York: Boni and Liveright 1924. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good-. Octavo 383pp. A crisp clean copy about very good in the publisher's yellow cloth. Spine somewhat darkened with mild soiling to the cloth. Contents clean. Lacking the dust jacket. This copy SIGNED and warmly INSCRIBED by Hecht in a contemporary hand on the front free endpaper to his editor at the Chicago Daily News: "To my most consistent friend Henry J. Smith. Ben Hecht." Hecht a prolific novelist and often uncredited screenwriter got his start as a reporter for the Chicago Daily News after a short while being sent off to Berlin to cover the First World War for the paper. While in Berlin and dilligently reporting on the conflict he also began to cover crime taking that skill home with him to Chicago. Hecht famously broke the 1921 murder case known as the "Ragged Stranger" murder which ended with the conviction of WW1 hero Carl Wanderer for the murder of his wife and a yet unidentified stranger for partly unknown motivations. Smith the subject of the inscription reflected on Hecht's importance decades after their initial collaboration: "the idea that just under the edge of the news as commonly understood the news often flatly unimaginatively told lay life; that in this urban life there dwelt the stuff of literature not hidden in remote places either but walking the downtown streets peering from the windows of sky scrapers sunning itself in parks and boulevards. He was going to be its interpreter. His was to be the lens throwing city life into new colors his the microscope revealing its contortions in life and death." Kerrane et al. "The Art of Fact: A Historical Anthology of Literary Journalism" Simon and Schuster 1998. A significant early association copy of this early book by the prolific writer. Boni and Liveright hardcover
