Signed by the Author. keywords: American Literature. DESCRIPTION - 'I am alone in the dark, turning the world around in my head as I struggle through another bout of insomnia, another white night in the great American wilderness.'. So begins Paul Auster's brilliant, devastating novel about the many realities we inhabit as wars flame all around us. Seventy-two-year-old August Brill is recovering from a car accident in his daughter's house in Vermont. When sleep refuses to come, he lies in bed and tells himself stories, struggling to push back thoughts about things he would prefer to forget - his wife's recent death and the horrific murder of his granddaughter's boyfriend, Titus. The retired book critic imagines a parallel world in which America is at war not with Iraq but with itself. In this other America, the twin towers did not fall and the 2000 election results led to secession, as state after state pulled away from the union and a bloody civil war ensued. As the night progresses, Brill's story grows increasingly intense and what he is so desperately trying to avoid insists on being told. Joined in the early hours by his granddaughter, he gradually opens up to her and recounts the story of his marriage. After she falls asleep, he at last finds the courage to revisit the trauma of Titus's death. Passionate and shocking, MAN IN THE DARK is a novel of our moment, a book that forces us to confront the blackness of night even as it celebrates the existence of ordinary joys in a world capable of the most grotesque violence. inventory #2089.

Soft cover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 320 pages. Published in 2004. Rare Martin Amis and Granta Magazine collectible item. A fine copy of Granta Magazine's 25th Anniversary "Jubilee" 2004 Issue, signed by Martin Amis. The First Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent printings. Published in a small and limited first print run as a softcover original only that went into several subsequent printings. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Granta Magazine's "Jubilee" Issue. Notably features the very first and only appearance in published form of a longish Excerpt of Martin Amis' screenplay adaptation of Jane Austen's "Northanger Abbey". The adaptation of the novel, first published in 1818, was commissioned by Miramax Films, the screenplay approved (more or less), and production planned to commence in 2001. It was eventually overtaken by an inexorable sequence of man-made events with "force majeure" magnitude, shelved, and remains un-produced as of 2024, more than twenty years later. Meanwhile, Martin Amis' brilliant adaptation is complete, and judging from the Excerpt, is elaborately imagined and written, with remarkable literary quality, by the great film buff/writer. It is also worth noting that Martin Amis once imagined a parallel career as a character film actor, as more than a few great British and American writers succeeded in doing, Sam Shepard being the most acclaimed. The Issue also includes now-classic pieces by contributing writers, notably Paul Auster's "Brooklyn Follies", an excerpt from his novel of the same name. "Amis is a force unto himself. There is, quite simply, no one else like him" (The Washington Post). An absolute "must-have" title for Martin Amis collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black ink-pen upon his Contribution by Martin Amis. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This Granta Magazine Issue is a contemporary classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the Magazine "Jubilee" Issue available online and is in fine condition overall: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare signed copy thus. Some of the greatest writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER MARTIN AMIS TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 1929001177. Signed by Author.
