About this Item

253 Pages; ** Goodreads: What happens when a college professor of medieval literature gets a little too drunk and conjures up a beauty of demon right in the middle of a faculty party? Well, if the professor is Willis Baxter and the demon is a four-thousand-year-old lush and lovely lady named Anathae, the result is bound to be wild. Various short stories collected into one volume. ** Jon at Goodreads: The stories collected here, which are more novella length than short shorts, were originally published in Fantastic magazine, edited by Bischoff. They chronicle the travails of Professor Willis Baxter at Powhattan University, the "old P.U.", beginning when he summons up a naked and nubile she demon, Anathae, at a fundraising event. The target of the fundraiser, Norman Rockhurst, thinks that the demon is a stripper, part of Willis' magic act, and invites (or perhaps summons is a better term) him to a political rally taking place at his home several nights later. When Willis' dowdy girlfriend, Gertrude Twill, discovers Anathae the next morning, still a bit underclothed for the weather, at his apartment, she storms out and resolves in her heart to destroy him. His rival and fellow professor, Larry Hawthorne, wants control of the demon for himself, and covets the same promotion to head of the Literature Department that Baxter does, so the stage is set for conflict through several humorous episodes. ** Tom Hallman Nude Woman GGA Good-Girl-Art painted cover. >> An Un-Read example with still Glossy covers, with only minor edgewear, Size: 12mo - over 6�" - 7�" tall.
