‎FLOWER NET EDGAR AWARD FINALIST‎

‎New York NY U.S.A.: HarperCollins Publishers 1997. First edition so stated with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket not price clipped in protective mylar cover. AUTHOR'S FIRS NOVEL. Both an EDGAR and BARRY Award Nominee. In the depths of a Beijing winter during the waning days of Deng Xiaoping's reign the U.S. ambassador's son is found dead - his body entombed in a frozen lake. Almost simultaneously American officials find a ship adrift in the storm-churned waters off Southern California. No one is surprised to find the fetid hold crammed with hundreds of undocumented Chinese immigrants - the latest cargo in the Chinese mafia's burgeoning smuggling trade. What does surprise Assistant U.S. Attorney David Stark is his discovery that among the hapless refugees lies the corpse of a Red Prince a scion of China's political elite. The Chinese and American governments suspect that the deaths are connected and in an unprecedented move they join forces to solve this cross-cultural crime. Stark heads for Beijing to team up with police detective Liu Hulan whose unorthodox methods are tolerated only because of her spectacular investigative abilities. Their investigation carries them and the reader into virtually every corner of today's China - from its glitzy karaoke bars where the nation's new elite cuts deals to the labyrinthine hutongs where ordinary Beijingers have lived and died for centuries. Stark and Liu's search leads them from the Chinese capital to Los Angeles's thriving Asian community and turns up a bloodthirsty murderer at the very apex of China's power structure. Their work together also ignites their passion for each other - a passion forbidden by their respective governments and one that plays right into the hands of a serial killer. First Edition.

‎OEUVRES I ET II SOUS COFFRET‎

‎2 tomes, 16mo reliure, jaquette coffret. Volumes 1 et 2. Segalen, médecin de la Marine, ausculte le monde comme un grand corps. Faire de ce monde une part de soi, tel est pour lui l’enjeu de la littérature. Plus que d’autres, il a le don de percevoir la multiplicité du visible, l’instabilité des choses, la variété du sensible. L’exotisme est son affaire, mais pour en aborder les thèmes il a soin, précaution rare en son temps, de se débarrasser du poncif « palmier, chameau, casque colonial ». Son appétence pour le divers n’est pas d’ordre ethnographique. Ce qu’il vise, c’est « une Esthétique du Divers ».À sa mort à quarante et un ans, en 1919, trois livres seulement avaient paru : Les Immémoriaux, Stèles et Peintures. Des milliers de feuillets manuscrits attendent éditeurs et lecteurs. Les efforts d’Annie Joly-Segalen font peu à peu sortir de l’ombre cet édifice virtuel, « poésie encore ignorée et au sein de laquelle vit un mystère » (Pierre Jean Jouve, 1955). C’est sans doute cette lente maturation qui a fait de l’oeuvre de Segalen notre contemporaine inattendue. La nature des manuscrits, lieu d’un dialogue de l’auteur avec soi-même, interroge la notion même d’oeuvre et rend illusoire toute idée d’exhaustivité. Les genres, fiction, poésie, journal, essai, sont soit combinés, comme dans Le Fils du Ciel, projet d’art total, soit déjoués : « J’étouffe dans le Roman ! »En respectant comme jamais la présentation des documents autographes (images comprises), la présente édition ne renouvelle pas seulement la lecture du Fils du Ciel ou de l’Essai sur l’exotisme elle rend aux textes leur mouvement propre, celui d’une marche vers l’idée grandiose, et chimérique, que l’auteur se faisait de l’oeuvre à laquelle il les destinait.
