Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. A young couple, Henry and Ellen, embark on an ambitious project to restore a dilapidated ancestral estate known as The Grove. Fueled by a vision of idyllic country living and a desire to reconnect with their family history, they move into the decaying mansion despite its numerous challenges. As they confront the realities of rural life and the overwhelming task of renovation, their initial enthusiasm begins to wane, revealing underlying tensions and doubts about their decision. Set against the backdrop of a changing American landscape, this book delves into the complexities of marriage, ambition, and the enduring power of the past. The author skillfully weaves together themes of disillusionment, societal transformation, and the struggle for identity as the couple grapples with the physical and psychological burdens of their undertaking. Henry's growing obsession with the estate's original owner, Major Brent, a figure of both admiration and resentment, further complicates their efforts and raises questions about the true nature of their connection to the property. Through vivid descriptions and insightful character portrayals, this book offers a thought-provoking exploration of the human desire for meaning and belonging in a world increasingly defined by progress and uncertainty. The author's keen observations on the challenges of rural life and the often-illusory nature of nostalgia provide a timeless reflection on the enduring conflict between tradition and modernity. Ultimately, the couple's journey toward restoring The Grove becomes a powerful metaphor for the search for identity and the elusive nature of the American dream.

Vintage oversize, double weight, borderless still photograph from the 1973 film, based on the 1947 novel by Andrew Lytle. Shot, struck, and mounted by the film's still photographer, Bob Willoughby, with a manuscript notation in his hand on the verso. Full provenance available. Culp and Eggar romp in a bed that is the middle of the woods for some reason, while the haunted house that will exert a corrupting influence on the couple looms in the background. An image that does not appear in the so-bad-its-nearly-avant garde film, but one that nevertheless captures its aura of surreal eroticism quite well. Set in the countryside of Southern California, shot on location in British Columbia (Indian Arm and Vancouver). After studying with Saul Bass at the Kann Institute of Art in Los Angeles, photographer Robert Willoughby began working for magazines such as "Life," "Look," and "Harper's Bazaar" in the late 1940s. He spent the next 20-plus years as a set photographer for every major studio and magazine, with his images seen in print literally every week of his career. Willoughby's photographs are in the permanent collections of ten museums, including The National Portrait Galleries in Washington, DC and London, the Bibliotheque Nationale de France, The Museum of Modern Art, and The Tate Modern. 13.25 x 9 inches.
