Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 326 pages. Octavo (8 1/2" x 6") bound in original publisher's quarter blue paper spine in silver lettering to spine over black boards in original jacket. First edition. Toomer, the precocious narrator of this likable first novel, is a young adolescen…t in the San Pedro section of L.A., where gang violence is a given, absentee fathers are preferred to the live-in kind who get "so so mad" and futures are bleak. The sense of community is strong, however; as the novel begins, gang warfare has ceased so the neighborhood can present a unified front to the LAPD, or "rollers." Toomer narrates in the first-person plural, speaking for a generation of ghetto kids who have cobbled together a community based on something other than violence. Meallet, who grew up in San Pedro, reproduces the infectious slang of southern California youth, characterized by the invention of amalgamated adjectives: "a you-guys-are-sorry gigglesound." His prose is swift-paced and conversational, but the series of disjunctive subplotsthe wonder of a first car, forays into petty crime, the revelation of sexual secrets by a friend's father, a fantastical narrative about Toomer's own missing fatherdisrupt the arc of the narrative, making this feel like a series of short stories forced into novel form. The book is a portrait of the artist as a young thug, and despite Toomer's communal voice, the escape from ghetto life (implied and made true by Meallet's own success) appears to be an individual one, based on Toomer's clandestine interest in classical music and secret forays to the local library. Nothing detracts from the punch of the ending, in which Toomer and his buddies give an anonymous homeless man a funeral and help a wounded woman give birth, acts of kindness giving truth to the anonymous man's dying words: "How wonderful you've become. like angels." Condition: Review copy with material laid in else a near fine copy in like jacket.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 241 pages. Octavo (8 1/2" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's quarter black paper with silver lettering to spine over red boards in original pictorial wrappers. Translated by Muhayman Jamil. Review copy with material laid in. First edition. This haunting c…oming-of-age story about a girl growing up in wartime Iraq was the subject of heated controversy when it was published in the Middle East; now in English, it offers American readers a rare chance to experience an Iraqi childhood. The frank, determined narrator is a schoolgirl living in a small town in the Iraqi countryside when the book opens. Torn between the cultures of her parents, she loves the simple pleasures of provincial life in her father's native land but, at the urging of her English mother, she is thrown into the study of Western music and ballet and becomes a devoted dancer by the time the family relocates to Baghdad. Even as the city around her is transformed by the blackouts and deprivations of the war between Iran and Iraq, she propels herself passionately through the full range of teenage discovery. The death of her father, her first love affair, and her mother's unexpected illness carry her into adulthood and ultimately to London, where she confronts, with surprising results, the other half of her EastWest legacy. A Sky So Close is a captivating look at contemporary Iraq from the inside outa stunning re-creation of the surreality of life during wartime, and the story of a young woman coming to terms with the seemingly unbridgeable cultures from which she is formed. Condition: Fine in like jacket.

Add to basketpaperback. Condition: Near Fine. DETAILS: PAPERBACK, cover price $12.95, attractive copy, near fine. LE CORBUSIER. Towards a New Architecture. Translated from the Thirteenth French edition, with an introduction by Frederik Etchells. New York: Dover Publications, 1986, xix, 289pp., . Cover design by Paul E. Kennedy. Unabridged re…publication of the 1931 edition. - For the Swiss-born architect and city planner Le Corbusier (Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, 1887-1965), architecture constituted a noble art, an exalted calling in which the architect combined plastic invention, intellectual speculation, and higher mathematics to go beyond mere utilitarian needs, beyond "style," to achieve a pure creation of the spirit which established "emotional relationships by means of raw materials." The first major exposition of his ideas appeared in Vers une Architecture (1923), a compilation of articles originally written by Le Corbusier for his own avant-garde magazine, L'Esprit Nouveau. The present volume is an unabridged English translation of the 13th French edition of that historic manifesto, in which Le Corbusier expounded his technical and aesthetic theories, views on industry, economics, relation of form to function, the "mass-production spirit," and much else. A principal prophet of the "modern" movement in architecture, and a near-legendary figure of the "International School," he designed some of the twentieth century's most memorable buildings: Chapel at Ronchamp; Swiss dormitory at the Cité Universitaire, Paris; Unité d'Habitation, Marseilles; and many more. Le Corbusier brought great passion and intelligence to these essays, which present his ideas in a concise, pithy style, studded with epigrammatic, often provocative, observations: "American engineers overwhelm with their calculations our expiring architecture." "Architecture is stifled by custom. It is the only profession in which progress is not considered necessary." ". . .a cathedral is not very beautiful. . ." and "Rome is the damnation of the half-educated. To send architectural students to Rome is to cripple them for life." Profusely illustrated with over 200 line drawings and photographs of his own works and other structures he considered important, Towards a New Architecture is indispensable reading for architects, city planners, and cultural historians - but will intrigue anyone fascinated by the wide-ranging ideas, unvarnished opinions and innovative theories of one of this century's master builders. Unabridged and unaltered republication of die work translated from die 13th French edition of Vers une Architecture, published by John Rodker Publisher, London, 1931. 85 line drawings, 140 black-and-white photographs. Introduction by Frederick Etchells. 9780486250236 ISBN 0486250237.
