The book has a very slightly shifted spine, a tiny orangeish stain on the interior of the back cover, very faint foxing to the edge of the textblock, gentle creasing to the corners of few pages throughout, and an overall gentle aging to… the pages, otherwise the book is in very good condition with crisp, unmarked pages, a tight binding, and a strong, clean cover. The dustjacket has rubbing and surface scratching to both covers, faint smudging to the covers, uneven toning to the jacket most notable at the spine, and a gentle crease to the bottom corner of the front flap, otherwise the dustjacket is in very good condition, intact and attractive, and is now in an archival protective mylar.

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 320 pages. Published in 1980. Rare Gore Vidal collectible set. A fine copy of "Views From A Window: Conversations With Gore Vidal" with a pristine, rare copy of the 5 X 7 inch single-weight, silver-gelatin print of his portrait by the brillia…nt American photographer, Matthew Rolston. A keepsake, the latter shows him in closeup, one of the best such portraits of the much-photographed writer, issued to coincide with the release of his novel, "Kalki". Retrospective collection of interviews with subject. One of the best literary collections of its kind ever published in the 20th century. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run by Lyle Stuart, a small fine press, as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents "Views From A Window: Conversations With Gore Vidal". Indispensable: The pioneering precursor to numerous subsequent collections of interviews conducted by the indefatigable and consistently interesting commentator and man-of-letters. "An imaginative collection of interviews given over twenty years, full of witty, brilliant, and unconventional comments on his own life and work as well as American politics, values, and sexuality" (Publisher's blurb). Enough said. An absolute "must-have" title for Gore Vidal collectors. This title is a great collection. This copy comes with a 5 X 7 inch original silver-gelatin print of Gore Vidal, taken by Matthew Rolston. As far as we know, this is the only copy (with Original Print) of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and despite its imperfection (slight wear on DJ, but it's there) is still in fine condition overall: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Precedes and should NOT be confused with several subsequent editions. Copies available online have serious flaws or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare set thus. Recipient of the National Book Award's Lifetime Achievement Award in 2009 for "Distinguished Contribution To American Letters". One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine set. (SEE ALSO OTHER GORE VIDAL TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0818403020. no.

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 458 pages. Published in 2008. Retrospective collection of essays. Some of Gore Vidal's greatest essays, gathered in one compact volume. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent edi…tions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents "The Selected Essays by Gore Vidal". Edited with an Introductory Essay by Jay Parini. A rich sampling of Gore Vidal's celebrated essays, which individually and collectively represent some of his finest achievements as an American Renaissance Man. While the pieces have appeared in previous collections, all of the latter are now out-of-print and none of them is a "summing-up" volume. It is, in effect if not in intent, the distillation of his humongous "United States" (1995). The most recent essays, in particular, are among Gore Vidal's most controversial pieces, a man-of-letters writing at the end of his powers, more resigned (and wiser for it) than hopeful about the state of things, especially the United States, which he presciently asserts is in irreversible decline as a state, as a nation, and as a global power. Do keep in mind that this assertion was made way before the rise of Donald Trump, whose ascent would have been unimaginable for Gore. Vidal's unsurpassed genius as an aphorist makes him our Montaigne, the greatest essayist America has ever produced. It also leads us to take his effortless one-liners at face value when the whole point of the aphorism is to read between the lines. Gore Vidal died on July 31, 2012 at the age of 86, the last of the great American public intellectual/writers of our time. We live in the Age of Mediocrity, where (nearly) everyone is a critic/blogger/pundit mouthing timid, politically correct opinions. Someday, we will realize what we have irretrievably lost. "The century's finest essayist" (The Spectator). An absolute "must-have" title for Gore Vidal collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black-ink pen on the title page by Gore Vidal. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. It is also very prominently and beautifully signed in blue-ink pen on the same page by Jay Parini. This title is a great collection. As far as we know, this is the only such double-signed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare signed copy thus. Recipient of the National Book Award's Lifetime Achievement Award in 2009 for "Distinguished Contribution To American Letters". One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER GORE VIDAL TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0385524846. Signed by Author.

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 160 pages. Published in 1985. Book-length account on subject. One of Gore Vidal's finest achievements. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limit…ed first print run as a hardcover original only simultaneously with the British Edition. The First Edition is now rare. A sumptuous production by George Armstrong: Oversize-volume format. Brown cloth boards with gilt titles embossed on spine, as issued. Text by Gore Vidal. Photographs by Tore Gill. Edited by George Armstrong. Accompanying original VHS tapes of the film version-adaptations, "Vidal In Venice: Part One" and "Vidal In Venice: Part Two", narrated by Gore Vidal himself and beautifully filmed by Mischa Scorer. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper in Venice, Italy to the highest standards. In pictorial DJ with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Presents Gore Vidal's "Vidal In Venice". The great writer's guide to the Old World's only surviving city. Inimitably written in Vidal's characteristically brilliant style, it thereby sets itself apart from ALL other accounts; there are many and are quite superb. If the ruins of Athens and Rome be our link to the Age of Antiquity, Venice largely remains as it once was, "the world's most romantic city", albeit submerged in fetid waters. "Gore Vidal traces his roots back to Venice. He takes you along as he peers into Venice's mysterious, glorious, and twisted history. In this very personal tour of Venice Past and Present, Vidal guides you in his own special way, telling you as much about the Venetian people as he does about their empire, including visits to Crete and Naxos, Venetian strongholds of the past. The great writer, who traces his ancestors to the imperial Venetians centuries ago, is an excellent guide: The art treasures, the sumptuous palaces, the literary past, the scandals of yesterday, and the tourist-y Venice of today all find their place in Vidal's chronicle as he wanders from the canals to the Doge's Palace. This is Venice as only Vidal's eyes could see it" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Gore Vidal collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black pen on the title page by Gore Vidal. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. It comes with the original VHS tapes of the film version-adaptations, "Vidal In Venice: Part One" and "Vidal In Venice: Part Two", narrated by Gore Vidal and beautifully filmed by Mischa Scorer, both in pristine, un-used condition. This title is a great book. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy (with original tapes) of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare set thus. Recipient of the National Book Award's Lifetime Achievement Award in 2009 for "Distinguished Contribution To American Letters". One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine collectible set. (SEE ALSO OTHER GORE VIDAL TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0671606913. Signed by Author.
