Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Charles Jacksons novel The Lost Weekendthe story of five disastrous days in the life of an alcoholicwas published in 1944 to triumphant success. Although he tried to escape its legacy, Jackson is often remembered only as the author of this thinly veiled autobiography. In Farther & Wilder, the award-winning biographer of Richard Yates and John Cheever goes deeper, exploring Jacksons lifefrom growing up in the scandal-plagued village of Newark, New York, to a career in Hollywood and friendships with everyone from Judy Garland and Billy Wilder to Thomas Mann and Mary McCarthy. This is the fascinating biography of a writer whose life and work encapsulated what it meant to be an addict and a closeted homosexual in mid-century America, and who was far ahead of his time in bringing these forbidden subjects into the popular discourse. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. For a time, Nelson Algren was Americas most famous author, lauded by the likes of Richard Wright and Ernest Hemingway. But at the height of his career, he abandoned fiction and fell into obscurity. Colin Ashers sublime biography of Algren unravels the enigma of his disappearance, explores the richness of his novels and nonfiction writing, and explains how a rash creative decision may have led his enemies to denounce him to the FBI during the Red Scare. Asher tells Algrens story in rich, novelistic detail, including his long-term affair with Simone de Beauvoir and the emotional breakdown that nearly cost him his life. Drawing from interviews, archival correspondence, and Algrens 886-page FBI file, Never a Lovely So Real portrays Algren as a dramatic iconoclast and reclaims him as a towering literary figure. Easily the best biography of the great Nelson Algren, and an extraordinary book in its own right. Blake Bailey, author of Cheever: A Life Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Book First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 255 pages. Published in 2014. The author's debut memoir. One of Blake Bailey's finest achievements. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. Presents Blake Bailey's "The Splendid Things We Planned: A Family Portrait". Fathers, sons, and brothers: A literary elegy for family, brotherhood, and life itself. "Author of acclaimed biographies of Richard Yates ('A Tragic Honesty'), John Cheever ('Cheever: A Life'), and Charles Jackson ('Farther And Wilder'), Blake Bailey once remarked that his aim in writing such books was 'to reconcile the paradox of a highly compartmentalized personality'. This memoir suggests that Bailey's fascination with compartmentalized people, and his explicating the simultaneous bleakness and beauty of their lives, stems from personal experience. Bailey's older brother, Scott, careened from one disaster to the next, bewildering and disappointing everyone around him. Though Scott has functional moments, including a stint in the Marines, during which he became a Master Sharpshooter, such moments become footnotes to a larger pattern of wrecked cars, jail time, and intoxicated self-pity. Their father, an upright Oklahoma attorney, tries to wash his hands of his son as Scott becomes increasingly unhinged. As his own life begins to blossom, Bailey remains an ambivalent participant in this sad family saga, torn by his antipathy for his brother yet aware of all that they share" (Brendan Driscoll). "You can hate a person with all your heart and soul, and still long for that person" (Blake Bailey). An absolute "must-have" title for Blake Bailey collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed, dated (shortly after publication), and inscribed in black ink-pen on the title page by the author: "To Rita, Thanks for coming, Best, Blake Bailey 3.14.14". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. The recipient, who is named, obtained the signature during a public signing event. Then she apparently put the copy away as it remains in brand-new condition. This title is a contemporary classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed, post-publication dated, and inscribed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright, a pristine beauty. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent editions, or are remainder-marked. A rare signed copy thus. One of the most brilliant American writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER BLAKE BAILEY TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0393239578. Signed by Author.
