Cloth. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: FINE+ Near New DJ. PHOTO Cover! (illustrator). FIRST Edition Hardcover. Hamish Hamilton Ltd.; 188 pages. (325 grams) " A Second Skin begins on an osteopath's couch. 'What I do not understand,' the osteopath is saying, 'is why if you arc the optimist you claim to be you should be wearing black underpants.' It is a question to which Edward Blishen has no ready answer, being at that stage in life when the highest of hopes are quickly followed by the lowest of despairs. It's not just a matter of discovering that he's mortal a fragile machine for which no instruction booklet was ever issued. It's occupational uncertainties, too: like his doubts about his role of external examiner in colleges of education. His visits organised as if he were some sort of educational archbishop, how can he make clear his disapproval of courses in Eng Lit in which students who've not quite managed to digest Langland and Chaucer are still gagging on the Elizabethans as their instructors place in front of them great steaming dishes of Augustinians and Romantics and Victorians? Then there's the world of children's books, and the problems of his friend William, the illustrator, who wants to draw a naked man as a naked man. ('You want me to draw in a little leaf? A bunch of grapes?') Meanwhile, at home, parenthood has become a stark embarrassment: each child's room, once a tender nest, is now a dissident IIQ. lie flies to Korea for an international literary conference on humour which sets out to establish its universality, and ends by demonstrating the opposite. There he meets the formidable Miss Yim ('I am translating Two City Tales by your Charles Dickens. But I have finished writing about your exhausting George Eliot.') At war with nicotine, happy on holiday in Suffolk, Wales, the Mediterranean, he finds himself passing through that period of life when you grow a second skin: not in order to become thick-skinned, but to be thin-skinned in greater comfort. Edward Blishen has never been in better form, whatever the thickness of his skin." Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Book.

Soft cover. Condition: Good. Reprint. Paperback. Tchaikovsky. Ex-library with ex-library markings. In this classic musical biography, the author gives a fascinating and sympathetic picture of Tchaikovsky - lonely, insecure and tormented by his homosexuality - showing how his personality interacted with his prodigious musical talent to produce some of the most memorable and expressive music of the late nineteenth century. Tchaidkovsky's extraordinary friendship with Madezhda von Meck (a relationship entered into and sustained entirely by the exchange of letters) provides a particularly rich source of information about how Tchaidkovsky viewed the creative process and his own talent. 303 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).

Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. First Edition. Hardcover. First Edition. Over the Sea to Skye. Wear and a couple of small tears to edge of D/J. Small piece of D/J. missing from top of Spine. The saga of the Forty-five, the last of the Jacob risings, and the inter-related tragedy of Charles Edward Stuart, 'Bonnie Prince Charlie', has always fascinated, providing as it does one of the great 'ifs' of history: if Charles and his army had not turned back at Derby, would the Hanoverian dynasty have been cast out and replaced by Charles's father, the Old Pretender? The author has returned to the opriginal documents and exercised the myths and over romanticised legends. Even so, his narrative of the rebellion is filled with coloour and adventure. From the moment when Charles landed on the forlorn Eeiskay coast, through the triumphs of Prestonpans and Carlisle, the fateful decision at Derby, the shattering of a dream at Culloden, to the final wanderings among the islands of the west coast, the drama of the Forty-five is unrelenting. Illustrated. 170 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. Academic and Scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Educational Reference Literature.).
