Summary: Ruth Rendell's seventh collection of short stories also includes two unpublished novellas. The long title story is about a man whose life, in a sense, is a book. There are shelves in every room, packed with titles which Ambrose Ribbon has checked pedantically for mistakes of grammar and fact. Life for Ribbon is lonely and obsessive. Rendell has created an intriguingly diverse selection of tales, united by the customary dark vision of the author. The title story is shot through with elements of the macabre. Genre: Short fiction -- Mystery -- Suspense. 3 Kg.

Both are addressed to Buford Armitage at "The City Center of Music and Drama, Inc.". In his first letter, dated April 29, 1958, Martin Tahse writes to say that "Enclosed is the agreement between the Sergeants Company and the New York City Center which I trust you'll find acceptable." He goes on to ask that Buford Armitage execute the agreement in triplicate and suggests that "I think that will be all that is necessary for you to accept the scenery and properties for NO TIME FOR SERGEANTS." Signed in full. In his second letter, dated June 9, 1958, Tahse informs Buford Armitage that he has "been able to complete an inventory of the properties and scenery of NO TIME FOR SERGEANTS. These are the effects which we are turning over to the City Center." He mentions enclosing a copy of the inventory and concludes by writing that "It was certainly good news to learn that City Center will be able to present plays under the new tax ruling." Signed Martin. Retained copies of Buford Armitage's replies are stapled to Tahse's letters. Folded for mailing, else fine.
