Two volumes in contemporary half morocco and marbled boards, raised bands, gilt, top edge gilt, marbled end papers, the small bookplate of Herbert M. Allen, Cambridge front paste downs. Near Fine, light rubs at corners and raised bands. Paltock's classic imaginary voyage, originally published in 1751, this edition especially desirable for Bullen's reviews of the history of its writing, publication, and its influence on later writers like Dickens, Hunt, Lamb, Coleridge, et al. After creating this wonderful world of winged women, exotic creatures, and fanciful civilizations, Paltock tried his hand at a similar work featuring a dog-bird ( see Bleiler) but for some reason it never took off. Bleiler, p.162. . First Edition Thus. Half Morocco. Near Fine/No Jacket, As Issued. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

WINNER OF THE PEGASUS PRIZE FOR LITERATURE AND THE BOOKER PRIZE. Used. Very Good/Very Good unclipped original $17.95 dust jacket. Summary: "The Bone People, first published in 1984 by Spiral, New Zealand. About this book: The Bone People is an unusual story of love. It is unusual in the telling, the subject matter, and the form of love that the story depicts. This is in no way a romance; it is filled with violence, fear, and twisted emotions. At the story's core, however, are three people who struggle very hard to figure out what love is and how to find it. Hulme won New Zealand's Pegasus Prize for Literature (1984) for The Bone People. Then the book went on to win the prestigious Booker Prize (1985).
