Hardback. Condition: Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Fryers, Austin (pseudonym of William Edward Clery). The Devil and the Inventor. London: C. Arthur Pearson Ltd., 1900. First edition. Octavo, pp. [1-2] [i-iv] v-vi [1] 2-272. Original maroon pictorial cloth, front panel stamped in black and pink, spine panel stamped in pink. Spine panel just a bit faded, a good solid unworn copy. A rather scarce book. #3377. $75. A novel that combines the humorous treatment of a deal-with-the-devil theme and the then-emerging sub-genre of the wacky invention story. (These wacky inventors were usually a sanitized version of the increasingly well-established mad scientist; but a few come across as disconcertingly eccentric visionaries whose grotesqueries might have escaped from the world of Baron Munchausen.) A hapless inventor in England cannot marry his sweetheart because he has no money and no prospects, just a fuzzy confidence in his own potential as an inventor. She has no money of her own. Her father does but he, quite sensibly, will not bestow it on such a nitwit. The would-be inventor rashly declares he would do anything to win enough acclaim to impress her father, even to the extent of selling his soul to the devil. The devil instantly appears, in suitably ironic guise, eager to clinch the deal. "Science fantasy novel of the trials and tribulations of an impoverished inventor who invokes the aid of the devil, a being who has mastered the laws of the universe." - Locke, A Spectrum of Fantasy, p. 87. Barron (ed), Fantasy Literature 3-150. Clarke, Tale of the Future (1978), p. 26. Bleiler (1978), p. 78. Reginald 05682. …
