Founded in London in 1995, the Imaginative Book Illustration Society (IBIS) is a prestigious interest group dedicated to the academic study, mapping, and preservation of 19th and 20th-century book art. Unlike standard collector newsletters, their peer-reviewed journals are archived in national libraries as definitive, final academic reference authorities. Each volume behaves like an entry-level textbook for specific artistic careers. Volume 1 features groundbreaking, in-depth biographical profiles and checklists for Willy Pogány and Alice B. Woodward; Volume 2 unpacks John Everett Millais and Eleanor Vere Boyle; and Volume 3 breaks down Walter Crane and Harry Furniss. Approximately 144 pages per volume. Densely illustrated with continuous black-and-white figures and premium full-colour plates. Includes thorough, definitive artist bibliographies and checklists. Because printing runs were limited strictly to society members, these early out-of-print volumes are highly sought after by modern book historians.

"The twenty-eight interviews and profiles in this collection were drawn from Nabokov's numerous print and broadcast appearances over a period of nineteen years. Beginning with the controversy surrounding the American publication of 'Lolita' in 1958, he offers trenchant, witty views on society, literature, education, the role of the author, and a range of other topics.

Presents, in the most collectible format possible, "Conversations With Karl Ove Knausgaard". A representative - and dazzling - selection of interviews conducted by various writers, journalists, and scholars with the author. Gives a rich, complex, and lively overview of both the life and mind of one of contemporary literature's most exciting and important writers. Presented in chronological order, the interviews cumulatively amount to an absorbing account of one of the greatest literary journeys of our time, which is the explicit intention of the publisher with each writer who is included in the Series. "Twenty-two interviews, each conducted during the ten-year span in which Knausgaard's literary prowess gained worldwide recognition. Knausgaard is both a daring writer and a daring interviewee. He grounds his observations in the ordinary aspects of the world around him which, he insists, is the same world in front of most of his readers. He regards his appearances in newspapers, magazines, and literary festivals as a performance, where he plays himself. While that role may differ from his inner life, it is consistent with the role he plays in his autobiographical novels. Knausgaard discusses his work, aspects of his personal life, and his writing routines and practices in marvelous detail. Remarkable for his candor and directness, Knausgaard delivers the same variety and number of surprises in these interviews as he does in his most thrilling books" (Publisher's blurb).
