A. Merritt: Reflactions in the Moon Pool

For more than half a century the legion of loyal A. Merritt enthusiasts have read and reread his science-fantasy masterpieces, and have sought for any unpublished remnants or fragments of his work, as well as for information about the man himself. This book was written to meet that need. It gathers as a marginalia the unpublished or uncollected stories, fragments, poems, articles and oddments. It brings to light the lost, the forgotten, the second thoughts of a master of the genre. To justify the assembly of so diverse and uneven a quantity of admittedly minor works, Sam Moskowitz, the leading historian of this field of letters, has written the first full-length account and critique of A. Merritt, his life, works, sources, influences, hobbies, personality, friends, philosophy, strengths and weaknesses, all in the perspective of his milieu. This was a limited edition and has been out of print for some time now. Good to very good, no damage to boards or pages noted, binding square and tight. DJ fine with Highsmith 9" plastic book jacket cover, not clipped. Back cover DJ has a stain lower right and Braille lettering in 3 strips several inches long.…
