Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Very Good dj. First Edition. [modest shelfwear, very faint dampstain on top edge of text block, one-time owner's neat signature and date of purchase on ffep; shallow chipping at spine ends, a couple of other little edge-nicks]. The author's first (and apparently only) novel, set in Flushing, N.Y…., about a young couple struggling to make it through the Depression after the husband loses his job as a magazine editor. The New York Times reviewer called it "a really appealing first novel [that] is light, modest in scale, not startlingly original, but [having] a quality of warmth and truth and naturalness that is rather rare." The author had published some poetry and quite a bit of magazine fiction prior to this book, and according to her jacket-blurb biography had "worked at a great variety of jobs -- usherette, chorus girl, real estate agent, lingerie saleswoman, artist's model. Her hobbies are equally numerous -- hunting, music, football, fishing." (Her husband, Georges Carousso, was also a magazine-fiction writer.). Illustrated by (photographic dust jacket) (illustrator).

Softcover. Condition: Near Fine. Presumed first and only UK edition. 80pp. Five stories, each with beginning with a monochrome illustration. Contents very fresh and clean, with adverts for UK companies. 24x16.5cms, stapled, in colour pictorial cover. This is fresh and bright and uncreased, although a bit wider than the pages, an…d the overlapping edge is a little creased with small tears. US copyright date is 1941, but the advert on the back cover speaks of ICS's '58 years experience': ICS was founded in the US in 1889, so this UK issue is likely 1947. The cover also lists We, Who are Lost, by Russell Gray, as one of two Novelettes is this issue: it isn't here, but was presumably in the US edition. Brilliant copy.

Unbound. Condition: Very Good. Six drafts plus additional materials for an article that was written for and appeared in the May 5, 1964 issue of *The Saturday Evening Post*. The drafts are various formats (mostly typed) and lengths of pages, respectively 10, 15, 5, 11, 7, and 9 pages. Each of the drafts is edited and corrected,…most of them fairly extensively. Apparently a true and autobiographical story, but with the names of the participants changed. While deer hunting the author encounters a blind doe and her fawn. He takes them in tow, and through his employer, the deer is shipped to a specially trained veterinarian for an eye operation. Accompanied by over 50 pages of typed "interrogatories," probably from an editor or fact checker in order to better understand the story, though possible by the author in order to understand his own process. The accompanying material includes two snapshots of the deer. Carousso was a public relations man for a brewery, and was a very prolific author in both non-fiction genres (especially sporting, hunting and fishing) and various genres of fiction including mysteries, horror, suspense, and outdoor adventure. His work appeared frequently in *The Saturday Evening Post* as well as in *Sports Illustrated, Outdoor Life, Dime Detective, Terror Tales, Alfred Hitchcock, Reader's Digest,* etc. Much of his work was anthologized. One of his stories, "The Weapon," was adapted for the screen by William Faulkner and Howard Hawks for their aborted WWII film, *Battle Cry.*.
