Book First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. 1st Edition. Stated First Edition. A very rare signed copy. The inscription reads: 'Best wishes to Marilyn Hatch-- Charles E. Brady, June 14, 1953.' You can see the covers of the book in the photos. They are exceptionally clean. I don't see any soiling. The gilt lettering and design on the spine is very bright. The cover edges look perfect. The corners as well. No rubbing on either. The book is square and the spine is straight. The binding is very solid from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout and nicely tight covers as well. The pages are also exceptionally clean. Scrolling through, I'm not finding any soiling. I'm also not finding any creasing. No markings. No attachments of any kind. And the signed inscription is the only writing to be found anywhere in the book. The dust jacket deserves a lot of credit for protecting the book but has suffered for its heroism. There are tears, there is a page wear, and there's a spot of soiling on the rear, also some smooth scuffing on the photograph there. The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. It has lived in easier retirement with me under the protection of a fitted cover. I have provided three photographs so you will be allowed to see what I have described. From the dust jacket: 'In this powerful novel, enriched with an authentic background which only an eminent writer, historian and scholar can reproduce, the august life of Sir Thomas More is brought into a remarkable living experience. Moving against the sweeping pomp of Tudor living, personified by the crude and lusty figure of Henry VIII, this noble man set himself up, not only in opposition to the lechery of the king, but to the monarch's unbridled desire to sever England's church from the body of Rome. The majestic Tudor epoch, which set the stage for the clash of two determined men, has never been spread with such grandeur on the printed page. With its dramatic power and sweep Stage of Fools is a historical novel in the grand tradition.' Brady, former head of the English Department at Canisius College, 'was a professor, poet, novelist, critic and caricaturist, using both pen and wit to illuminate even the darkest recesses of literature. In 1968, the Poetry Society of America gave first prize to Brady's 'Keeper of the Western Gate' and, in 1970, its Cecil Hemley Memorial Award for the best poem on a philosophical theme, 'Ecce Homo Ludens. C.S. Lewis, the eminent British author, once called Brady's critique of his work the best published in Great Britain and the United States. Brady, who was born April 15, 1912, often pointed out that he was born 'the day, the hour and the moment that the Titanic sank.' Stage Of Fools was the author's first of four novels. It outsold any book published by E. P. Dutton in 1953, and was translated into Dutch and Spanish.'. Inscribed by Author(s).
