London: Hutchinson, 1955. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Very Good/Good. An attractive copy of this Roger Brook title in the original publisher's black cloth covers - minor push to the crown, corners lightly rubbed but a VG straight, tight and clean copy with bright gilt titles at the backstrip. The unclipped dustjacket is bright and clean with some minor loss at the corners and at the tail and a short tear to the top edge of the rear panel. Minor print soiling to the rear panel but much better than it sounds - Good++. At the title page the author has written, "With best Wishes from Dennis Wheatley". While signed/inscribed books by this author are by no means rare inscriptions are usually addressed to an individual by name - such generic inscriptions are uncommon.

New York, Grove Press, 2022, trade paperback, 272 pp, Advance Uncorrected Proof (ARC), New. Straight, tight and clean with no wear or markings in bright, pictorial card covers, no dustjacket as issued. The pieces in this collection, written between 1956 and 1961 and including short fiction, a radio play, and a stunning early novel, offer startling insights into Cohens imagination and creative process. Cohen explores themes that would permeate his later work, from shame and unworthiness to sexual desire in all its sacred and profane dimensions to longing, whether for love, family, freedom, or transcendence.
