Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. First Printing of the 1975 Farrar, Straus and Giroux edition, featuring Oliver and Gunnvor Stallybrass's acclaimed retranslation of Under the Autumn Star (1906) and On Muted Strings (1909). Part of the Noonday Press line, this edition reflects the mid-century revival of Hamsun in English, driven by interest in his psychologically interior, early-modernist prose. Designed by Marion Hess and published simultaneously in the United States and Canada, the volume presents Hamsun's mature style - lyrical, ironic, and introspective - with clarity and fidelity to the original Norwegian. The book is in Very Good condition: gently toned wraps with light edge wear, a few small surface rubs to the front panel, and a faint crease to the upper corner. Interior pages are clean, unmarked, and well-preserved, aside from a small vintage Mobile Assistance Patrol card once laid in. Binding is square and tight, with no reader's lean. Spine is only moderately creased, uncommon for a 1970s trade paperback of this length. This is the true First Printing, as confirmed by the copyright page, which states: 'First printing, 1975.' Published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux and distributed as Noonday 530, priced at $3.95. Library of Congress classification: PT8950.H3. The translation reproduces Hamsun's tonal shifts - melancholy, wry humor, and interior monologue - with greater textual accuracy than earlier English versions. Contents include both novels complete: Under the Autumn Star (pp. 3-114) and On Muted Strings (pp. 115-218). Knut Hamsun (1859-1952), recipient of the Nobel Prize in Literature (1920), remains one of the most influential figures of psychological and modernist fiction. His narrative innovations including fragmentation, interiority, impressionism shaped authors ranging from Thomas Mann and Stefan Zweig to Ernest Hemingway and Isaac Bashevis Singer. Designed by Marion Hess (illustrateur).…

Softcover. Etat : Fine. First edition. An association copy, inscribed in purple ink on the half-title page: "For Oliver [Sacks]--with deep affection and admiration--Susan."Sacks and Sontag were friends and both wrote with deep sophistication about illness, one as a public intellectual and philosopher, the other as an accomplished physician. This book is a short story that originally appeared inThe New Yorkerwhich describes a group of friends after they discover a close friend has AIDS. A wide octavo or small quarto in wraps with French flaps, illustrated with fold-out color etchings by Howard Hodgkin. Thirty pages exclusive of the etchings. A really handsome production, a fine copy, and an important association. Oliver Sacks was a British neurologist that theNew York Timesdubbed "the poet laureate of contemporary medicine." He spent the bulk of his medical career as a professor of neurology at Yeshiva University's Albert Einstein College of Medicine. There he began to write about some of his neurology patients (he burned the manuscript of his first book,Ward 23, in a fit of anxiety about his new direction). He went on to publish fourteen books from 1970 to 2015, the year he died also of cancer, most of them with a focus on highly researched clinical anecdotes, including such lauded works asThe Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat(the main case study of which is a man with "face blindness," something Sacks also suffered from, and which deeply impacted his social interactions) andThe Island of the Colorblind. .…
