Into it he poured his personal experience as an accomplished novelist and a committed teacher of fiction writing.

He also gave to it the rare encouraging spirit that marks his presence behind each sentence of this book. His main objective as he says early on is to try 'to deal with and if possible to get rid of the beginning novelist's worries.'"</b></font><br><br> Purchase with confidence: all books gradings and descriptions are rendered the care of a genuine bibliophile.

Garebian, Keith
George Bernard Shaw and Christopher Newton : Explorations of Shavian Theatre
Oakville New York London: Mosaic Press 1993. Paperback. Like New/No d/j as Published. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Type: Book Christopher Newton has placed the Shaw Festival firmly on the map world-class theatre. His best Shavian productions are revolutionary re-interpretations of plays that are normally treated as Edwardian period pieces or didactic entertainments. In this first full-length study of Newton critic Keith Garebian shows how the pairing of Shaw and Newton that once seemed 'not bloody likely' has become one of the most exciting enterprises in Canadian theatre with startling results. The book begins with a biographical section that sketches some of the most pervasive influences on Newton's artistic sensibility and suggests what has particularly inspired his ever-growing fascination with Shaw. Successive chapters document Newton's concept of Shaw as a surrealist and contain detailed descriptions of productions at Niagara-on-the-Lake from 1980-1990. Among other things readers are shown a Caesar and Cleopatra set in a Shadow Box; Heartbreak House as a dream-play of the night and anarchy; Major Barbara as a double quest; You Never Can Tell as part comic romance part farcical metaphor; the metatheatrical suggestions of Man and Super-man; and a Misalliance as metaphor of a convulsive new age. As Garebian shows Newton's approach for all its paradoxes succeeds in making George Bernard Shaw our dynamic contemporary. 164pp. N.B. Slight mark to bottom edge of front cover.

Vol. 2: Half-title in red, main title in red and black, 1 f. index of plates, 40 plates (numbered 1-60; 20 chromolithographs counted twice). Includes: Half title of the text volume. Stored loosely in contemporary red half cloth portfolio with giltstamped cover title "Le Nouvel Opera de Paris | Bronzes" and four ties. First edition. - Plate volumes of the rare luxury work on the "Opéra Garnier", the neo-Baroque Parisian opera house completed in 1875, one of the most admired buildings of its time. The plates depict plans, cross-sections and elevations of the building, engraved in great detail after drawings by Duchamp, Jasson, Riquois and others. The beautiful chromolithographs (including the famous staircase) convey a vivid impression of the luxury and splendor of the interior decoration. Garnier's name became instantly famous when in 1861 he was unanimously awarded the first prize for his competition design for the new opera. His opera house, which cost the then unheard-of sum of 50 million francs, still constitutes the unsurpassed centerpiece of modern Parisian architecture (cf. Thieme/B.). To the plates were added four volumes of photographs by Durandelle and Garnier's monographic text volume (not present here). - Occasionally slightly rubbed; some 10 plates with insignificant defects to edges. Old library stamp ("Malmö Stadts Yrkesskolas Bibliotek") on front pastedown. Thieme/Becker 13, 205. Not in Ornamentstichslg. Berlin.
