1978réf. 223151978. Sci-FiAfrican AmericanLiterature Butler Octavia E. Mind of My Mind. New York: Avon 1978. First Avon Mass market paperback edition with striking psychedelic-style cover art depicting a green-skinned woman with glowing eyes and intersecting telepathic beams of light underscoring the novel's speculative and psychic themes. The second book in Butler's groundbreaking Patternist series Mind of My Mind centers on Mary a powerful telepath whose emergence signals a new evolutionary leap for humanity. Mary's narrative is deeply intertwined with African diasporic identity and the complexities of inherited power. As Mary asserts her own psychic authority she challenges patriarchal and racial legacies embedded in her father's centuries-long domination. The novel's intersection of speculative fiction and Black feminist thought marks Butler as one of the genre's most visionary figures. With its themes of collective consciousness reproductive agency and telepathic connection the book anticipates later scholarship on Afrofuturism and queer futurity. As literary scholar Sandra Govan noted Butler's Patternist series "presents a vision of a black future that transcends traditional genre boundaries" Govan 1986. Spine creased moderate edgewear and rubbing to wrappers some toning and corner creasing to rear. Text block uniformly toned but internally clean and unmarked. Overall very good condition. Mind of My Mind remains a pivotal work in Black speculative fiction exploring psychic liberation and the creation of a matriarchal future. unknown
1976réf. 223921976. African AmericanLGBTQSci-Fi Literature Delany Samuel R. Triton. New York: Bantam Books 1976. First edition. Signed by the author on dedication page "Samuel R. Delany Amherst '91". A work of queer science fiction by one of the most significant African American science fiction writers of the 20th century. Triton is an essential exploration of gender variance social structure and identity. Published in the wake of Ursula K. Le Guin's The Left Hand of Darkness 1969 Delany's novel offers a pointed subversive response deepening the exploration of gender nonconformity by imagining a society where gender and sexual identities are not only fluid but technologically alterable. Set on the anarchic post-capitalist moon colony of Triton the novel follows Bron Helstrom a misfit and self-styled dissident whose inability to conform becomes a lens through which Delany critiques heteronormative power structures. As Bron undergoes elective gender reassignment surgery the novel dismantles essentialist notions of gender and challenges the fantasy of liberation without introspection. Unlike Le Guin's speculative treatment of androgyny through a unified race Delany himself a gay Black writer and theorist constructs a fractal intersectional society where race sexuality gender and desire constantly shift. Triton does not offer utopia but instead asks: who is truly capable of freedom and at what personal cost The book stands at the intersection of New Wave science fiction and early queer theory anticipating themes that would later define trans and nonbinary narratives in speculative literature. Toning and spotting to inner wrappers and end pages. Overall very good condition. A signed first edition of Delany's politically radical philosophically rich and narratively transgressive vision of queerness and selfhood. unknown

1965réf. 191371965. Burgess Anthony. A Clockwork Orange 1965 first mass-market paperback edition brought Burgess's dystopian novel of juvenile violence state punishment behavioral conditioning and individual choice to an American paperback readership six years before Stanley Kubrick's 1971 film adaptation. Burgess constructs the novel around Alex and his teenage gang whose violence leads to Alex's imprisonment and compulsory submission to the Ludovico Technique a state conditioning program intended to make violent behavior physically intolerable to him. The conflict between Alex's brutality and the government's attempt to eliminate his capacity to choose gives the novel its central question: whether enforced good behavior can constitute moral goodness when the individual no longer possesses the freedom to act otherwise. Burgess Anthony. A Clockwork Orange. New York: Ballantine Books 1965. First mass-market paperback edition. 191 pages. Illustrated wrappers with cover art by Mozelle Thompson. The front shows a young man in sunglasses and black leather riding a motorcycle with two additional leather-clad men and a blonde woman grouped behind him. Ballantine explicitly marketed the novel through contemporary anxiety about juvenile delinquency placing above the title the line "Terrifying Shocker of a World Dominated by Teen-age Gangs." Thompson's imagery and the publisher's tagline differ markedly from the visual vocabulary subsequently associated with Kubrick's film preserving an American commercial interpretation of Burgess's novel before Alex and his droogs became inseparable in popular culture from the film's costumes and imagery. Published in paperback during a decade of sustained public debate over juvenile delinquency crime punishment and behavioral control this Ballantine edition shows how Burgess's novel was initially presented to American mass-market readers: not principally through the later film's imagery but as a sensational narrative of teenage gang violence. Minor scuffing and creasing to wrappers with an orange line beneath "Orange" in the title discoloration to rear wrapper and bumping at foot of spine. A few pencil notes occur throughout the text. Cover colors remain bright and crisp. Overall very good condition. First mass-market paperback edition with Mozelle Thompson's pre-Kubrick artwork and Ballantine's original emphasis on the novel's teenage gang culture. unknown
