Condition: Very Good. Hardcover in a bright dust jacket. 990 pages. James M. Cain?s pioneering novel of murder and adultery along the California highway, The Postman Always Rings Twice (1934), shocked contemporaries with its laconic toughness and fierce sexuality. Horace McCoy?s They Shoot Horses, Don?t They? (1935) uses truncated rhythms and a unique narrative structure to turn its account of a Hollywood dance marathon into an unforgettable evocation of social chaos and personal desperation. In Thieves Like Us (1937), Edward Anderson vividly brings to life the dusty roads and back-country hideouts where a fugitive band of Oklahoma outlaws plays out its destiny. The Big Clock (1946), an ingenious novel of pursuit and evasion by the poet Kenneth Fearing, is set by contrast in the dense and neurotic inner world of a giant publishing corporation under the thumb of a warped and ultimately murderous chief executive. William Lindsay Gresham?s controversial Nightmare Alley (1946), a ferocious psychological portrait of a charismatic carnival hustler, creates an unforgettable atmosphere of duplicity, corruption, and self-destruction. I Married a Dead Man (1948), a tale of switched identity set in the anxious suburbs, is perhaps the most striking novel of Cornell Woolrich, who found in the techniques of the gothic thriller the means to express an overpowering sense of personal doom. Clean copy. Record # 401027. …

Condition: as new. Cambridge & New York :Cambridge University Press, 1991 Paperback. 190 pp. English text. Condition : as new.Lectures presented at the spring 1987 Lowell Institute series given in Boston and Washington, D.C. Bibliography note: Includes bibliographies and indexes. - In the last decade, advances made in observational instruments and computational techniques have allowed astronomers to look both deeper into space and, by implication, further back into time to construct new scenarios for the probable beginning and possible end of the cosmos. Ironically, each new discovery, while revealing intricate details, has also posed new questions. People have always speculated on the nature of the universe, pondering its origin, evolution and eventual fate. In this volume, six leading cosmologists provide a current 'state of the universe' report: what we have learned about its nature - but also what pieces are still missing from the cosmic puzzle. Taken in toto their contributions provide a stimulating addition to the field. Condition : as new copy. ISBN 9780521426732. Keywords : .…

Contents include parts 1 - 4 of 5 of Fer-de-Lance, the first Nero Wolfe novel by Rex Stout. Note - Verdict ceased publication in the US with the September issue. Consequently part 5 of the serial was never published. There was a British edition of the magazine that continued publication. However, I have not seen part 5 in that edition either.

Condition issues include: June - Light creases to the bottom right of the front cover; July - Light rubbing to the covers, light round, red stamp (appears to be Italian) at the top right of the back cover; August - roughness to the fore edge and some rubbing and light creases to the front cover, small loss a various spots along the spine; September - roughness to the fore edge of the front cover and some rubbing at the bottom of the spine, small loss at the bottom margin of the back cover (it looks like a varmint chewed on it) that diminishes and fades out by page 100. Note: Frank Kane is listed as an author on the front cover of the July issue but it doesn't have a story by him.
