Martial stands as the first Epigrammatist, not only of his own, but of every succeeding age. The bent of his genius seems to have lain entirely in this direction. Everything he penned, whether begging a favor, satirizing a fault, writing an inscription, or paying a compliment, was an epigram. The word epigram originally signified, as its etymology implies, nothing more than an inscription. But in the development which it received in the progress of literature, and especially at the hands of Martial, it assumed an entirely new character, and may be de fined as the concentration of satire and pointed invective in a short poem.

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 310 pages. Published in 2017. The author's third novel to be translated into English. One of Sofi Oksanen's finest achievements. The first appearance of the title in English and in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run by Alfred A. Knopf as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Sofi Oksanen's "Norma" in a felicitous English translation. Her spellbinding novel, as Oksanen goes from strength to strength by shifting gears. "Set in present-day Helsinki, about a young woman with a secret who is trying to solve the mystery of her mother's death. When Anita Naakka jumps in front of an oncoming train, her daughter, Norma, is left alone with the secret they have spent their lives hiding: Norma has supernatural hair, sensitive to the slightest changes in her mood - and the moods of those around her - moving of its own accord, corkscrewing when danger is near. And so it is her hair that alerts her, when she talks with a strange man at her mother's funeral, that her mother may not have taken her life. Setting out to reconstruct Anita's final months, by sifting through puzzling cell phone records, bank statements, and video files, Norma begins to realize that her mother knew more about her hair's powers than she let on. As Oksanen leads us ever more deeply into Norma's world, weaving together past and present, she gives us a dark family drama that is a searing portrait of both the exploitation of women's bodies and the extremes to which people will go for the sake of beauty" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Sofi Oksanen collectors. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are in multiple subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. One of the most brilliant writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER SOFI OKSANEN TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0451493524. no.

Published in a small and limited first print run by Alfred A. Knopf as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Sofi Oksanen's "Koirapuisto" in a felicitous English translation. Her "feminist" novel. "Set in Ukraine and Finland, a captivating story of intrigue, betrayal, and murder. Helsinki, 2016: Olenka sits on a bench, watching a family play in a dog park. A stranger sits down beside her. Olenka is startled. She would recognize this woman anywhere. After all, Olenka was the one who ruined her life. And this woman may be about to do the same to Olenka. Yet, for a fragile moment, here they are together, looking at their own children being raised by other people. Moving seamlessly between modern-day Finland and Ukraine in the early days of its post-Soviet independence, 'Dog Park' is a keenly observed, dark, and propulsive novel set at the intersection of East and West, centered on a web of exploitation and the commodification of the female body. Brings fearless psychological acuity to this captivating story about a woman unable to escape the memory of her lost child, the ruthless powers that still hunt her, and the lies that could well end up saving her" (Publisher's blurb).

Jacket design by Harry More-Gordon. Faint foxing to top edge, a hint of soiling to rear dustwrapper panel, with a shallow chip to crown of lightly sunned spine, else Fine. Translated from the French by Edward Owen Marsh. Premiered on 10th December 1957 at the New Theatre, St. Martin's Lane, London, after an Oxford Playhouse try-out. It was directed by Frank Hauser, and starred John Justin, Jill Bennett, Alan MacNaughtan, Lally Bowers, and Ian Hendry. Originally staged under the title Le Rendez-vous de Senlis, at the Théâtre de l'Atelier on 30 January 1941, in a production directed by André Barsacq. That starred Michel Vitold, Denise Bosc, Jean Dasté, Madeleine Geoffroy, Georges Rollin, and Monelle Valentin. A man's ultimately fruitless attempt to impress the girl he loves by hiring actors to portray his imaginary wealthy parents. Forming part of Anouilh's pièces roses or "pink plays", and additionally comprising Le Bal des voleurs [Carnival of Thieves] (1938), and Léocadia [Time Remembered] (1940), the focus of these urbane comedies is on fantasy substituting reality. A prolific French dramatist whose career spanned five decades, Anouilh is best remembered today for his 1944 adaptation of Sophocles' classical drama Antigone, viewed as an attack on Marshal Pétain's Vichy government.
