Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. 'Haunting. Geppetto's voice, full of wistful overemphases and bewildered revelation, is absorbing as he takes in the oddity of his situation. And the book, sentence by sentence, offers much in which to luxuriate.' - Sunday Times 'Profound and delightful. It is a strange and tender parable of two maddening obsessions; parenting and art-making' - Max Porter 'Strange, moving and musical, it's a delight' - A. L. Kennedy 'A re-imagining of Pinocchio, told from the viewpoint of the beast-entrapped Geppetto, it surprise and delights, and saddens and gladdens, from start to finish.' - Jane Graham I am writing this account, in another man's book, by candlelight, inside the belly of a fish. I have been eaten. I have been eaten, yet I am living still. 'Art objects live in the belly of this marvellous novel, images swallowed by text, sustained by a sublime and loving imagination. Like all Edward Carey's work The Swallowed Man is profound and delightful. It is a strange and tender parable of two maddening obsessions; parenting and art-making' Max Porter 'Strange and lovely' Rhik Samadder 'A beautiful and dark meditation on fatherhood, mercy, redemption and the alchemy of isolation. Strange, moving and musical, it's a delight' A. L. Kennedy From the acclaimed author of Little comes this beautiful and haunting imagining of the years Geppetto spends within the belly of a sea beast. Drawing upon the Pinocchio story while creating something entirely his own, Carey tells an unforgettable tale of fatherly love and loss, pride and regret, and of the sustaining power of art and imagination. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

World English-language rights acquired by Gallic Books editor Polly Mackintosh from Carole Saudejaud at Flammarion; originally published in French as Dangereusement douce (Dangerously Sweet). Translated by Louise Rogers Lalaurie, translator of Frédéric Dard's The King of Fools and Olivier Bard's The Inspector of Strange and Unexplained Deaths. Antoine Laurain is the award-winning author of ten novels including The Red Notebook and The President's Hat; his books have been translated into 25 languages and sold more than 200,000 copies in English. Nathalia Guitry was a successful photographer — until the day she caught a murder on camera. At therapy, Doctor Faber suggests a way out of her creative block: she must write stories about the people she sees in the building opposite, floor by floor. Starting with the actor turned YouTube life coach on the ground floor and going all the way to the fifth via a cartoonist and an ex-trader, Nathalia creates vivid accounts of her Parisian neighbours' lives. But are her tales real or imaginary? As their sessions play out, the doctor becomes increasingly uncertain. And when she gets to the final floor, it's up to Faber to do the talking. An obvious homage to Hitchcock's Rear Window, French Windows has a deliciously French flavour and displays Laurain's trademark wit — clever, stylish, and deeply entertaining, praised by the Chicago Book Review as "oozing Parisian perfection with a good dose of mystery, intrigue, and suspense." A near-fine first Gallic Books printing of a charming and suspenseful Parisian mystery from one of French fiction's most beloved and widely translated voices. …

Cloth. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. First Edition UK. The Gourmet translated from the french by Alison Anderson,France's greatest food critic is dying, after a lifetime in single-minded pursuit of sensual delights. But as Pierre Arthens lies on his death bed, he is tormented by an inability to recall the most delicious food to ever pass his lips, which he ate long before becoming a critic. Desperate to taste it one more time, he looks back over the years to see if he can pin down the elusive dish. Revealing far more than his love of great food, the narration by this larger-than-life individual alternates with the voices of those closest to him and their own experiences of the man. Muriel Barbery's gifts as an evocative storyteller are put to mouth-watering use in this voluptuous and poignant meditation on food and its deeper significance in our lives. A delectable treat to savour.
