First edition thus. *** "The Mirror of the Marvelous has long been considered one of the most significant and original books to have come out of the surrealist movement. Anais Nin suggested it as a source of inspiration, far ahead of its time, for would-be authors seeking to break from the realist literary mold. Mabille cites a far reaching assortment of texts, ranging from the classic to the obscure, from the ancient epic to the modern poem, from the creation myth to more contemporary visions of apocalypse. This work defines the flame of the marvelous by showing its presence in those works where it burns the brightest." - Publisher. Size: 8vo. Collectible.

First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. John Newman (illustrator). 1st Edition. This is "Monkey Wrenches and Household Saints : Recent Sculpture by John Newman" . It is an exhibition catalog with color photographs of Newman's work. The catalog celebrates the exhibition held from September 5 to October 7, 2005 at the Clifford Gallery, Little Hall , at Colgate University. "Jon Newman's sculptures demand a commitment to the pleasure and exigency of discovery : of unconscious desires, aesthetic bliss, physical incongruity. Like the Surrealists' objets interprétés, poetic transformations result from the displacement and juxtaposition of unrelated objects, and meaning is attributed by the negation of any real or imagined function. Marble and foam core, bronze and bamboo, lead and crystal and broken glass are ; melded and moulded into forms that remain intimate in scale while at the same time are suggestive of an expansive imagination. "Inspiration comes from many sources and in numerous forms : Indian baskets, Japanese puppets and samurai helmets, African sceptres, all of which inform a process that might be called 'structural improvisation': a controlled , almost mathematical precision coupled with unconscious, automatic improvisation. Letting the imagination roam freely, Newman methodically works his materials while at the same time allowing them to dictate variations in compositional structure, much like free jazz, with its limitless, often impenetrable and dissonant fluctuations."
