Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. 244 pp. ; [1st ed.] ; inscription on end page ; author's first novel ; ISBN: 0670209724 :; 9780670209729 LCCN: 79-12880 ; OCLC: 4933841 ; ".set in Amor Milagroso, a Spanish fishing town where ex-fisherman Benito finds two golden statues--a male a nd a female nude that lock together appropriately and seem to offer a supreme sense of joyous wellbeing and renewed youth. In fact, hitherto rather cool about sex, Benito and his wife Concepcion suddenly never had it so good, conjugal-wise. But the word gets around, and soon everyone is after Benito and the golden figures: the local count (a political enemy turned friend); some conniving art dealers with diverging sexual tastes; the local priest (only interested for scholarly reasons); an acquisitive Mayor; and a legendary gentlemanly bandit. There are chases on land and sea, assaults and dreadful threats, a cross-stitch of deals--and, at the last, Benito puts his life on the line to preserve the statues for the village, which expects tourists and pilgrims to flock on in. Noisy, with every possible cliche, of caricature and mock-patois endemic to the genre. "-Kirkus Reports ; FINE/VG. Book.

Printed Wrappers. Condizione: Fine. First Edition. 23 pp. text in Spanish. One of 600 copies [stated]. Inscribed at length to Phyllis Gebauer, the longtime friend of reclusive author Thomas Pynchon who in 2011made a significant gift of signed first editions of his books to the UCLA Extension Writers Program. During the past two decades, Phyllis taught over 60 novel writing courses, and in recent years, memoir writing -- after she published, at the age of 80, Hot Widow, which Thomas Pynchon described as "rollicking and heartbreaking evidence that little black dresses aren't just for graveside anymore." "The recipient of the UCLA Extension Instructor Award in Creative Writing in 1992, Phyllis garnered the highest levels of praise every time she taught. Students loved her incisiveness, gift for making the complex accessible, and of course, her wicked sense of humor. Gebauer and her husband became friends with Pynchon when they all lived in Seattle. That was before "Tom," as she called him, was a published author; Pynchon's first book, "V," came out in 1963. Although Gebauer and her husband moved around -- he was a can't-talk-about-it aerospace engineer -- their paths intersected with Pynchon's in Texas and then in Southern California [circa 1965], where the friends spent much time together. Inscribed by Author(s).
