Condition: There is heavy foxing to the pages' top edge, and a little to the fore-edge and margins.

Description:
London: Macmillan, 1938. First Edition. . Hardback. Good. First edition. Hardback, bound in green cloth with printed titling to spine and upper board. 18 × 12cm, 132pp + ads. An unusual school language book centred in the Spanish Civil War. Both authors were masters at Marlborough College. The preface states "The story deals with an imaginary incident in the civil war now taking place in Spain; this has enabled us not only to pack the story with adventure, but also to introduce into the text words and phrases which are in constant use in the France of to-day". The first part of the book is a story, in French, about a boy Jean / John who is worried about his Father, a journalist who has been sent to Spain to report on the Civil War. Each chapter has questions in French to test understanding. The second part is a series of paragraphs in English describing the story which are to be translated into French, and finally there is a glossary of French words, including those the authors'…

Dublin: Arlen House, 2018. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Very Good. First edition. Paperback. 21.5 × 14cm, 128pp. Initialled, dated and dedicated by Stephen James Smith to the title page. Poet Stephen James Smith's sympathies lie with the addicted and the convicted, often responding to what he finds on life's margins. His sharp-edged forceful language derives from his gifts as a performance poet and his fearlessness in looking into the eye of his subject matter. His poems get their charge, as well as their shape and substance, from his use of demotic rhythms, the vividness of his vernacular and his emotional directness. Condition: This copy is in very good condition, with a little light wear to the edges.

London: Heinemann, 1972. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Good Plus. First edition. Paperback. 18.5 × 12cm, 202pp. "These Swahili songs of love and passion make their first appearance in English translation [by Jan Knappert], printed parallel to their Swahili originals. Previously most attention has been paid to the narrative and epic poems written in difficult literary 'high' Swahili. Ordinary speech is here being used to convey the delicate, erotic and sensuous feelings of the people of the East African Coast over the last few hundred years. This is a rare insight into another culture. Swahili, like English, is a mixed language; it readily takes words from Arabic and the other languages round the Indian Ocean and uses them for its own alluring purposes. Jan Knappert has provided an introduction and notes to help with the densely-strewn allusions." Condition: This copy is in good plus condition. There is some rubbing and chipping to the covers but the contents are in very good order.

London: The Observer, 2007. First Edition. . Card Covers. Very Good. First edition, first printing. Card covers. 24 × 24cm, 100pp [10]. "The Observer" published its first Jane Bown photograph in December 1949, beginning a romance between Britain's oldest Sunday paper and the country's most loved photographer that still flourishes. By 1980, she was renowned enough for the National Portrait Gallery to hold a one-person exhibition of her work and there have been no fewer than seven published collections of her photographs. This first ever collection of Bown's non-portraiture stretches back to her student days and includes many previously unpublished and some previously unseen images. It stands as a fascinating insight into Bown's development as an artist, and reveals a breadth to her talents that will surprise and energise all lovers of her work. The many set pieces capture history in the making with their instinctive drama. Condition: Very good condition, with a little…

Description:
London: Royal Academy of Arts, 2011. First Edition. . Card Covers. Very Good. First edition. Card covers. 28.5 × 24cm, 272pp. This fascinating book charts the dazzling trajectory of Russian avant-garde architecture during the brief but intense period of design and construction that took place from c.1922 to 1935. Fired by the radical new language of Constructivist artists, such architects as Konstantin Melnikov, Moisei Ginzburg, and the Vesnin brothers produced designs whose innovative style embodied the energy and optimism of the new Soviet Socialist state. Streamlined, flat-roofed, and white-walled, their extraordinarily novel buildings must have seemed like alien forms. Architectural photographer Richard Pare has spent the last 15 years documenting the remains and ruins of these structures. Here, his spectacular photographs are juxtaposed with vintage images, ephemera, and drawings and paintings by artists such as Malevich, Tatlin, Popova, and Lissitzky. Condition: A very good copy, with…

London: Verso, 1984. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Good Plus/Very Good. First UK edition, first printing. Hardback in dustwrapper. 20.5 × 14cm, 365pp. During the phony war that preceded the invasion of France, between late 1939 and the summer of 1940, the young Jean-Paul Sartre was stationed in his native Alsace as part of a meteorological unit. He used his considerable periods of spare time, between mundane duties like watching weather balloons, to make a series of notes on philosophy, literature, politics, history and autobiography that anticipate the themes of his later masterpieces, and often surpass them in literary verve and directness. These War Diaries form a portrait of Sartre in his most intense and brilliant phase. With them the twentieth century's most remarkable and public philosopher has provided us with a fitting posthumous monument to his honest and creativity. Condition: The book itself is in very good condition, but with some foxing to the pages' top edge and a few specks…
