Description:
Clean, unmarked interior. Spine has some creases and a slight cosmetic skew, but remains tight. Some light shelf-wear, including a small dent to the back cover. Cocaine smuggler David Lee Henry lives the fast life, as evidenced by the cover of this scarce edition, which pairs a comically seamy illustration with some classy Futura Black type. Hill not only called this book's hero David Lee Henry, but also used the name as a pseudonym when penning screenplays like Road House, Harry Tracy, and 8 Million Ways to Die. After King of White Lady was optioned, Roger Corman–mentee Monte Hellman was hired to adapt it for the screen in 1979, with Francis Ford Coppola slated to direct and produce; Coppola abandoned the project when he became distracted by the agonizing experience of shooting Apocalypse Now. 239 pp.

Clean, unmarked interior. Spine is tight and uncreased. There is some minor shelf-wear to the cover, as well as some subtle rubbing due to a printing error. Introduction by Kenny J. Williams. Best known as a poet (Maya Angelou alluded to his poem, Sympathy, when titling I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings), Dunbar published this, his final novel, in 1902, several years before his death at 33. The book anticipates the Harlem Renaissance by telling the tale of the Hamilton family, who flees the south for New York and devolves into debauchery after their father is wrongly imprisoned by a racist justice system. 'There is no poet, black or nonblack, who measures his achievement,' Nikki Giovanni writes of Dunbar. 'Even today. He wanted to be a writer and he wrote.' 195 pp.

Description:
Tight, square spine. Clean, unmarked interior. Very little wear to the book. Jacket has some edge-wear and a few small areas of rubbing. Quintessential literary modernist Lawrence meets quintessential mid-century modernist Alvin Lustig in this ND New Classics edition of the controversial novelist's retelling of the passion of Christ. Originally called The Escaped Cock, London publisher Martin Secker most likely rejected this title because of the double entendre, although Lawrence biographer Brenda Maddox insists the author 'refused to acknowledge that "cock" connoted anything but a rooster, just as he denied the blasphemous pun contained in the story's climactic line, uttered as the man observes the miracle between his legs: "I am risen!"' Lustig's jacket communicates the protagonist's conflicted existence between the material and metaphysical by depicting three abstracted figures in the process of resurrection, suggesting both the body/soul/spirit paradigm and the number of days Christ spent…

Description:
Tight, square spine. Clean, unmarked interior. Some toning to the inside covers and moderate to heavy wear to the covers, including areas of creasing, light soiling, and chipping. First published in 1966, just before the up-and-coming sci-fi writer would dance in a conga line with Allen Ginsberg during a Portland, Oregon, protest against the Vietnam invasion, the first edition of Planet of Exile was released as part of the Ace Double series, in a tête-bêche format bundled together with Thomas M. Disch's Mankind Under the Leash. This later edition features eye-catching cover art, uncredited and rendered in pen, ink, and watercolor, setting the otherworldly mood for the second book in the Hainish Cycle, which Le Guin claimed is actually not 'a cycle or a saga. . . . There are some clear connections among [the books], yes, but also some extremely murky ones.' 124 pp. Mass-Market Paperbacks.

Description:
Tight, square, uncreased spine. Clean, unmarked interior. Some small areas of creasing and edge-wear to the covers. In this often overlooked novel, Le Guin questions the Narnian fantasy portal trope and muddies the boundary between childhood flights of imagination and grown-up responsibilities. First published in the US as The Beginning Place, the book tells the tale of two protagonists at the threshold of adulthood and their relationship with the mythic village of Tembreabrezi, a twilight town unburdened by the strictures of time which has found itself increasingly isolated due to the townsfolk's fear of a ravenous beast roaming its outskirts. The creature, which Le Guin describes as 'white, wrinkled, twice a man's height, dragging its bulk painfully and with terrible quickness, round mouth open in the hissing howl of hunger and insatiable pain, and blind,' is strikingly depicted here by Richard Clifton-Dey, also known for his covers of Philip José Farmer's Lord Tyger and Blue Öyster Cult's album,…
