THE CONSTANTINE AFFLICTION. A PIMM AND SKYE ADVENTURE.
San Francisco: Night Shade Books 2012. 279 pp large 8vo 9 1/4" H. "1864. London is a city in transition. The Constantine Affliction - a strange malady that kills some of its victims and physically transforms others into the opposite sex - has spread scandal and upheaval through society. Scientific marvels and disasters such as clockwork courtesans the alchemical fires of Whitechapel electric carriages and acidic monsters lurking in the Thames have forever altered the face of the city. Pembroke 'Pimm' Halliday is an aristocrat with an interest in criminology who uses his keen powers of observation to assist the police or private individuals - at least when he's sober enough to do so. Ellie Skyler who hides her gender behind the byline 'E. Skye' is an intrepid journalist driven by both passion and necessity to uncover the truth no matter where it lies. When Pimm and Skye stumble onto a dark plot that links the city's most notorious criminal overlord with the Queen's new consort famed scientist Sir Bertram Oswald they soon find the forces of both high and low society arrayed against them. Can they save the city from the arcane machinations of one of history's most infamous monsters - and uncover the shocking origins of 'The Constantine Affliction'" Very minor wrinkling at top/bottom of spine. Dust jacket has minor edge wear/wrinkling soft wrinkle at top of rear panel minor rubbing. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good. Illus. by Jacket art by Mark Nelson.

Peake Mervyn
Gormenghast
br. Il reame di Gormenghast ha il suo centro in un agglomerato tirannico con le sembianze di un castello. Qui ogni antica bellezza si è corrotta in cupa fatiscenza: le mura sono sinistre «come banchine di moli», e le costruzioni si tengono tra loro «come carcasse di navi sfasciate». E qui, intorno al piccolo Tito, settantasettesimo conte, si muovono la gigantesca contessa Gertrude, la madre, dalle spalle affollate di uccelli e dallo spumoso strascico di gatti bianchi; l'amata sorella Fucsia dai capelli corvini, che col suo abito cremisi infiamma i corridoi grigi; il fanatico custode delle leggi, Barbacane, nano storpio che raggela il sangue con lo schiocco della sua gruccia... Secondo episodio della trilogia iniziata con «Tito di Gormenghast» (Adelphi, 1981).

Peake Mervyn
Via da Gormenghast
ill., br. Quando, alla fine del secondo pannello della trilogia, il giovane Tito, signore di Gormenghast, trova la forza di strapparsi al suo reame, la cui bellezza si è ormai corrotta in cupa fatiscenza, le parole della madre - "Non esiste un altrove. Tutto conduce a Gormenghast" - sembrano richiudersi sulla sua fuga come una pietra tombale. Scoprirà che un altrove esiste, ma che è divorato non meno di Gormenghast dal Male: la città a cui approda è solcata dalle disumane meraviglie del controllo poliziesco - figure con l'elmetto che paiono scivolare sul terreno, sciami di velivoli senza pilota simili a equazioni di metallo, globi dalle viscere colorate quasi umane -, sottomessa a una scienza dispensatrice di morte. E nei cunicoli del Sottofiume vive una immane popolazione di reietti, fuggiaschi, falliti, mendicanti e cospiratori che non vedranno mai più la luce del sole. Scoprirà che al di là della sua nessun'altra realtà è per lui decifrabile, così come la sua è per gli altri inconcepibile: lontano da Gormenghast non c'è che l'ossessione del ricordo, e la follia. Dovrà, sorretto dall'aiuto di pochi - il gigantesco Musotorto, l'amorosa Giuna, i transfughi del Sottofiume Cancrello, Frombolo e Sbrago -, combattere, sfuggire a insidie, sottrarsi a ogni vincolo d'amore, amicizia e riconoscenza per conquistare l'unica verità che conti: "Era come una scheggia di pietra, ma dov'era la montagna dalla quale si era staccata?".

PEASE Howard.
Border Ghost stories.
Erskine Macdonald Ltd. London W.C.1 1919. Pp.xvi303i printer’s imprint; apple-green fine-linen-grain buckram ruled blocked and lettered white on spine; t.e. green; end-papers printed with double-spread wood-engraved illustration after R.J.S. Bertram. Nice copy. Also known in dark red buckram ruled blind on front cover the spine ruled blocked and lettered gilt identically with the present copy and the top-edges brown. The red cloth binding looks the more expensive and might for that reason appear to claim precedence but given that the book was first issued during the period of stringency following the First World War when gilt was in short supply and that many books produced in that year had a cloth-grain similar to this it is impossible without other evidence to assign precedence. Mixed collection of Border tales Northumbrian and Scots including “The Warlock of Glororum†a monstrous carnivorous plant hidden in a secret chamber. Others are traditional ghost stories. Heavy dialect pieces set variously around the Tyne Northumberland and the Scottish border. Bleiler 1948 p.219 1978 p.155 ‘Guide to Supernatural Fiction’ 1295; Wilson ‘Shadows in the Attic’ p.407; Reginald 11264; not in Locke’s ‘Spectra’. All books listed by Robert Temple are first editions unless otherwise stated. hardcover

E dove è finito il suo amatissimo nonno, che ricorda appena, ma da cui sa di aver ereditato questo talento straordinario?

Perfino se stesso. Età di lettura: da 10 anni.
