Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's quarter red cloth with gilt lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. First edition. In French caracole means "prancing"; in English, "caper." Both words perfectly describe this high-spirited erotic adventure. In Caracole, White invents an entire world where country gentry languish in decaying mansions and foppish intellectuals exchange lovers and gossip in an occupied city that resembles both Paris under the Nazis and 1980s New York. To that city comes Gabriel, an awkward boy from the provinces whose social naïveté and sexual ardor make him endlessly attractive to a variety of patrons and paramours. Condition: Light edge wear. Jacket with light edge wear else a very good copy in like jacket.

Condition: UNSPECIFIED. White, Edmund, 1940-. Marcel Proust. New York: Viking, 1999, 3d printing number line, 165pp., very good dust-jacket, very good small red and black hardcover, minor pencil mark erased from one page. A Penguin life -"Considered the greatest - and most influential - writer of the twentieth century, Marcel Proust was also one of its most fascinating figures. In this portrait, Edmund White, author of an acclaimed biography of Jean Genet and the much admired novel A Boy's Own Story displays a rare understanding of this most complex man. A strange, reclusive genius who often lay in bed for days at a time in his cork-lined room, obsessively rewriting his masterpiece, Remembrance of Things Past, Proust was at other times a tireless socialite, attending the grandest parties and dazzling the guests - especially the most important ones - with his vivacity and wit. White also depicts the yearning, lonely boy, the ambitious grasper after honors, and the miserably closeted homosexual, an aspect of his life that this book explores frankly and perceptively.". 9780670880577 ISBN 0670880574.
