Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Elana Diamond's 35th birthday isn't much to celebrate. She's still alone and depressed, so this year the make-a-wish-candles can do you-know-what with themselves. And her arch rival at work, who thanks to her flawless judgment also happens to be her ex-fiancé, is being groomed to fire her.Fighting to keep her job, she can't afford to pay attention to her non-existent personal life, much less the sudden rash of suicides going on in Manhattan all professional women, all just like her.Then someone closely connected to Elana becomes the next suicide. She can no longer ignore the dying women, or anything else. An intense, secretive reporter surfaces, claims to be a friend, but he's a little too knowledgeable, a little too curious. Reluctantly, Elana tries to figure out why the suicide happened, and if this reporter is involved. She finds herself lured into a consuming world of shame and dieting, where going under a medically induced vanity coma to lose weight makes sense.A kind neurologist tries to help, but when Elana finds out what really happened with the suicide, she's in so deep she might not survive it. Anyone who tries to help her won't either. And no one seems interested in facing the truth. Racing against time, and fighting her own demons, Elana must try to find enough evidence for the truth to be heard, whether or not she makes it.…

Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 292 pages. Published in 1995. Book-length account on subject. Now considered a contemporary classic. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a regular first print run as a hardcover original only. Presents Wayne Koestenbaum's "Jackie Under My Skin: Interpreting An Icon". A brilliant "deconstruction" of an American icon, and as such, an expansion by its author of the meaning and pathos of being a fan. "The same kind of serious play that distinguished Koestenbaum's 'The Queen's Throat' shapes his scrutiny of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis: The highly charged gap between the private woman and the public icon she became. Her signature sunglasses and scarf, her coiffure ('battle gear of a woman of means'), even the 'O' of her name occasion manic, inventive, and wildly funny ruminations from Koestenbaum. In 'Silent Jackie', Maria Callas is quoted as saying that she 'spoke like Marilyn Monroe playing Ophelia'; in 'Jackie As Housewife', she is at once the devoted help-mate of powerful men and the star whose allure overshadowed them. Though some will undoubtedly find the book irreverent, those fascinated by the Cult of Celebrity will find Koestenbaum's analysis of an enduring icon a compelling contribution in cultural studies" (Publishers Weekly). Partly through the benefit of generational, not just chronological, distance, Koestenbaum is more illuminating about the True Meaning of Jackie than the accounts by the writers who actually knew her well - public figures themselves like Truman Capote, Gore Vidal (who was related to her), Pete Hamill, and Sir Stephen Spender, among innumerable other writers she befriended, who all succumbed to the centripetal force of her allure. The book originated as a series of essays in The New York Times Magazine (rather than say, Antaeus or New York Review), itself an indication of its subject's immense and enduring, perhaps eternal, appeal. An absolute "must-have" title for Wayne Koestenbaum collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed, dated (two weeks before publication), and inscribed in blue pen on the front free endpaper by the author: "For Alfred and Chris - with love and gratitude - Wayne 14 April 1995". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. The recipients, who are (or were) probably a couple, are (or were) unmistakably close to, not just known to, the author. This title is a contemporary classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed, pre-publication dated, and inscribed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. One of the most brilliant culture critics of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER WAYNE KOESTENBAUM TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0374284466. Signed by Author.…

Six parts in one vol. [12; 4; 4; 20; 18 pp (various paginated & unpaginated).], illustrated throughout with booth diagrams, floorplans, fair display ideas, photo illustrations, 2 mounted silver gelatin photos sized 8 x 10 in. on front & back wrappers, additional paper clippings, and magazine clippings tipped-in. Original purple softcovers silver lettering fro the Boston Food Fair program, w/ the rest mounted & sewn-in by Tremp, w/ red ties at gutter margin (some edgewear, thumbing, minor tears, scuffing, some lifting), still a surprisingly intact Sammelband in G condition despite heavy use. This intriguing Pure Food Fair promotion guide compiled by the noted Swiss-American western food fair display designer and promoter, captures the energy and impact in Colorado, Washington, Massachusetts, and the United Kingdom following the passage of the Pure Food & Drug Act of 1906. Across the United States, and in the UK, there was a tremendous growth of the public's interest in sanitary food manufacturing, packaging, new products, and more importantly booths designed to demonstrate that there products were unadulterated, safe & modern. The Denver Retail Grocers Association, and the Spokane Grocers' Association contracted with the intrepid salesman and show promoter to present "up-to-date, carefully managed, City and State-wide advertised indoor exposition of pure foods, household, electrical, gas, auto, labor-saving appliances, and industrial exhibits of every nature" in the two Western Cities. The 1908 Boston Food Fair was a lavish Progressive Era production, which featured the band and performances of John Philip Sousa to entertain participants and fair-goers. Tremp (b. 1873) first emigrated into Oakland, CA, before setting himself up in Denver, CO until just before World War I, with a focus on "Pure Food" fairs, but after World War I would move back to California, and remained there as a show promoter until the 1950's. No similar copies of the Denver, Spokane, or Boston Food Fair promotional catalogues and prospectuses are located in Worldcat, or, food & drink, or advertising specialty institutional holdings.…
