SLOW DAYS, FAST COMPANY: The World, the Flesh, and L.A.
Published by Alfred A. Knopf, 1977
Seller: Arches Bookhouse, Portland, OR, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
First Edition Signed
Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Condition: FINE. Dust Jacket Condition: FINE. First Edition. 178pp. 12mo, Taupe paper over boards backed in Linen cloth with gilt stamped lettering. Some light toningt to head and tail, exceedingly clean and sharp otherwise with still tight hinges; DJ has a miniscule chip to front flap, entirely clean and sharp. SIGNED by the author and incribed to her fellow Hollywood Angelenos, 'For Stathis and Ralph / On Cheremoya -- street of my birth. / Love, Eve Babitz / XOXO.' A uniquely personal inscription distinguished from the canned lines typical of her inscriptions. Ralph and Stathis comprised the L.A. fine-press publishing duo Sylvester and Orphanos. After languishing in obscurity for a few decades, the works of Eve Babitz underwent a renaissance keyed by the NYRB republication of this and other of her works, enjoyed for her thrilling tales of unseen and unappreciated corners of L.A. culture as much as for her lively and unparalleled voice. Here, in her second book, 'In ten sun-baked, Santa Ana wind-swept sketches, Babitz re-creates a Los Angeles of movie stars distraught over their success, socialites on three-day drug binges holed up in the Chateau Marmont, soap-opera actors worried that tomorrow's script will kill them off, Italian femmes fatales even more fatal than Babitz' (Matthew Specktor, from the NYRB intro). As the dust jacket states, 'Eve Babitz *is* L.A.'.

Slow Days, Fast Company: The World, the Flesh, and L.A.: Tales (First Edition)
Published by Knopf, New York, 1977
ISBN 10: 0394409841 ISBN 13: 9780394409849
First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. New York, Knopf, 1977. First edition. First printing. Fine in a fine jacket. A tight clean copy. The jacket is price clipped. Prior owner's neat bookplate on front pastedown. A bit of soiling to reverse side of jacket (about an inch-size stain, although it is not noticeable from the front). Not a book club edition, of course. Comes with archival-quality mylar jacket protector. Smoke-free. This is a beautiful copy of the first edition of Babitz' second book (after EVE'S HOLLYWOOD). Babitz enjoyed a renaissance beginning in 2010 due in part to the reissuing of much of her work by the New York Review Books, Simon & Schuster and Counterpoint Press.
