Hardcover. Condition: gut. 1.-6. Tausend. Fadengehefteter Pappeinband mit Schmuckpapierdeckeln, goldgeprägtem Titelrückenschild, farbigen Vorsätzen und Lesebändchen im illustrierten Pappschuber. Der Schuber etwas berieben, das Titelschild dezent berieben, ansonsten guter bis sehr guter Erhaltungszustand. Dies ist Exemplar Nr. 1405. Gesetzt in Nördlingen aus der Korpus Bulmer Antiqua von Wilfried Schmidberger und gedruckt auf holz- und säurefreiem mattgeglättetem 100g/qm Bücherpapier der Papierfabrik Schleipen. "Zwei Kinder, die der Weltkrieg in ein abgelegenes Heim verschlagen hat, begegnen im Wald einem Monster; noch ein Menschenalter später rätseln sie, ob diese unvergeßliche, quälende Erscheinung eine Halluzination war oder ein Lindwurm. Der Untermieter einer pensionierten Lehrerin wird von einem Phantom heimgesucht; es ist der verstorbene Sohn seiner Gastgeberin, der im Garten des Hauses leibhaftig vor ihm steht. Eine Frau entdeckt, daß sie allmählich versteinert. Einem Gynäkologen stößt im Keller der Klinik, wo eine Sammlung von musealen Geburtszangen, Prothesen und Föten in Spiritus vor sich hindämmert, eine fatale Liebesgeschichte zu. A.S. Byatt erzählt solche Geschichten mit skrupulöser, quasi photographischer Genauigkeit, aber durch den vertrauten Alltag schleicht sich die Unheimlichkeit uralter Märchen ein. Eine dieser Erzählungen trägt den Titel Body Art. Er kann als Leitfaden durch das ganze Buch dienen. Denn die Traumata und Obsessionen, von denen es handelt, Trauer und Angst, Scham und Wahn -, sie gehen den Personen buchstäblich unter die Haut. Mit der Sonde ihrer Phantasie läßt Byatt, eine Meisterin des Untergründigen, den psychologischen Roman hinter sich. Sie zeigt uns vieles, was wir nie bemerkt, nie für möglich gehalten hätten, und was den Schrecken, aber das Wunder unserer Existenz ausmacht." (Verlagstext) Dame Antonia Susan Byatt DBE (geborene Antonia Susan Drabble; * 24. August 1936 in Sheffield; gestorben 16. November 2023 in London) war eine britische Schriftstellerin. A. S. Byatts erster Roman, The Shadow of the Sun, erschien 1964. Er handelt von einem jungen Mädchen, das im Schatten ihres dominanten Vaters aufwächst. Es folgten u. a. die Romane The Game (1968), The Virgin in the Garden (1978) und Still Life (1985) sowie der Erzählband Sugar and Other Stories (1987). Für ihren Roman Possession (Besessen), der zugleich Liebesgeschichte und Kriminalstory ist, erhielt sie 1990 den Booker Prize. Sie war auch eine bekannte Literaturkritikerin, die für das Times Literary Supplement, die Sunday Times und die BBC schrieb. (Wikipedia) In deutscher Sprache. 338, (6) pages. 8° (122 x 220mm).

Hard Cover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. First edition. Signed by author without inscription. A very nice copy. 2003 Hard Cover. 279 pp. "Leaves rustle underfoot in a dark wood: two middle-aged women walk into a forest, as they did when they were girls, confronting their childhood fears and memories and the strange thing they saw -- or thought they saw -- so long ago. A distinguished male obstetrician and a young woman artist meet in a hospital. But both of them have very different ideas about body parts, birth and death. An innocent member of an evening class turns out to have her own decided views on how to use "raw material." These unforgettable stories are by turns haunting, funny, sparkling, and scary where Byatt adds a deliciously dark note to her skill in mixing folk and fairy tales with everyday life. Signed by author.
