Hardcover. To keep the animals happy on the Ark, Noah asks them to take turns telling a story every night. Noah introduces the stories and sometimes one or two of the audience chip in and get rather noisy as the mongoose tells how he defeated the mighty King Cobra, the two ocelots squabble with each other, the porcupine tells how he got his spikes and the wolf tells the story of the three little pigs as it really happened. The forty newly-commissioned stories are written down by eight popular children's writers - Lucy Coats, Alan Durant, Vivian French, Adele Geras, Michael Lawrence, Jenny Nimmo, Jeremy Strong and Jean Ure. They are funny, quirky, mysterious and magical - just right to read aloud and share with young children. Penny Dann's colourful pictures on every page are packed with things to look at, and there is added fun for children identifying the animals and looking for two stowaway mice. These are USED books.

But moreover, they lead the reader deep into history by showing the artifacts, weapons, uniforms and pieces of equipment that have survived after more than two centuries.

Original Wraps. Condizione: Near Fine. No Jacket, as Issued. First UK Paperback Edition. A 1980 first impression of the first UK paperback edition and first thus: first publication under this title - the stories were originally published in hardback in the UK in 1977 by John Calder under the title of "Four Novellas". Front cover illustration by Lawrence Mynott. Translated from the French by Samuel Beckett and Richard Seaver. ***A near fine copy in illustrated card wrappers.

Covers clean and unmarked. Spine tight. No tears. No fading. Paper slightly tanned. No foxing.

He continued:"I don't think impotence has been exploited in the past - my little exploration is that whole zone of being that has always been set aside by artists as something unusable - as something by definition incompatible with art." ***These four stories were first written in French soon after the Second World War and are characterized by Beckett's concern with the helpless individual consciousness. At the same time, they are rich in verbal and situational humour and offer the reader a fascinating insight into preoccupations which have remained constant throughout the work of a writer who has transformed the art of the novel and the contemporary theatre.' (Quote taken from rear wrapper blurb). ***First impression of the first UK paperback edition of this collection of stories by Samuel Beckett. This first UK paperback is uncommon. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Lawrence Mynott [Cover illustration] (illustratore).…

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Near Fine dj. First British Edition. [book has a couple of very slightly scrunched lower page corners, no other significant wear; the jacket is very nice-looking, with just a touch of soiling to the rear panel]. The first publication in English of the controversial final novel by this French poet/jazz musician/novelist/critic/and more (1920-1959), a surrealistic tale about a psychiatrist who "takes what turns out to be a lifelong holiday on an isolated coast," where he "discovers a primitive village with, alongside traditional wonders and horrors, a Buckminster Fuller church. The animals are almost human (a stallion is crucified) and the humans are almost -- if not completely -- animal." It gets weirder from there, with the psychatrist delivering a set of triplets to a woman living in a lonely house on a cliff, whose subsequent "curious upbringing" leads to them being locked in cages by their mother "to prevent them from flying away like birds.". Illustrated by (dj design) Lawrence Edwards (illustratore).…
