Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. First Dutton Paperback edition, 1st printing. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in FINE condition. Sold along w/used VG 1970 paperback of Richard Burgin's CONVERSATIONS w/JLB. "As Jorge Luis Borges conceived of it, A UNIVERSAL HISTORY OF INFAMY was to be no more than light entertainment. Yet after the book appeared in 1935 its influence on the fiction of Latin America was so profound that its publication date has become a landmark in the history of Latin American literature. Ostensibly a series of factual accounts about the lives of noted scoundrels, the book in actuality marked the debut of Borges as a storyteller, using that unique blend of fact, fiction, and pseudo-scholarship that later came to full expression in Borges's world-famed short stories. Valuable and important for what it tells us about Borges's mind and method, A UNIVERSAL HISTORY OF INFAMY manages, at the same time, to fulfill delightfully Borges's original intention. It is, indeed, a first-rate entertainment." [publisher copy] "The book that literally transformed the Spanish prose of the thirties and whose long echoes can still be heard in One Hundred Years of Solitude."--The New York Times Book Review. + CONVERSATIONS: First Discus Edition, September 1970. Gently read in VG condition (w/bookseller's name written on first page). "An extraordinary portrait of a witty, learned, even humble master---an ideal introduction to the man's work---a joy in and of itself."--John Leonard. "A delightful compendium of Borges' views, and a fascinating, engaging portrait of the man."--Harper's. "An engrossing and inspiring book."--Los Angeles Times. "A joy-to-read book!"--Publishers Weekly. Very Good paperback w/age toning on pages, o/w clean & tight binding w/no creases in spine; not bad for a 53-year-old mass market paperback.

First Edition
Condition: New. First Edition. First Printing. About Fine in a Near Fine, unclipped jacket. The book is sharp, and notably absent the remainder mark which seems to have plagued most copies of this title. The jacket still retains the original $16.95 price, and the spine is completely unfaded. A sharp example, other than some negligible rubbing around the edges and a single 1/4" closed tear.
