Zustand: VERY GOOD. First printing. Ten episodes in the life of a Los Angeles woman who proclaims, among other opinions, that Los Angeles is not a city, it is a giant studio. While "Tales" in the title seems to imply that they are short stories, most read as essays or opinion pieces. Regardless of whether these are factual or fiction, this book, Babitz's second, contains some of her best and most perceptive writing, with the long piece on "Bakersfield" standing out. Now very hard to find in the original hardcover first edition. 178 pp. Very good in a near fine dust jacket (foxing to the fore-edge and bottom edge of the textblock and to the cloth spine of the book, slight spine slant, original price of 7.95 on dj flap).

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. LOS ANGELES & THE ARTIST AS AN "IT GIRL" BABITZ, Eve. Slow Days, Fast Company: The World, The Flesh, and L.A. New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1977 First edition, first printing of the author's second and best book. This is a semi-autobiographical collection and a love letter to Los Angeles, Babitz's native city, home, and her artist's studio. Eve Babitz (1943-2021) was L.A.'s "It girl" of her era; her friends and lovers included Jim Morrison and Harrison Ford. She became an icon of art and sex in 1963, when she posed naked playing chess with Marcel Duchamp. The stylish dust jacket by Chris Blum depicts a soigné saluki dog sitting at a bar with a glass of wine filled by a mysterious mechanism. The photo of Eve Babitz on the rear cover is by Paul Ruscha, who is the unnamed man at the heart of this book. 'With Slow Days, Eve attained that American ideal: Art that stays loose, maintains its cool. Art so purely enjoyable as to be mistaken for simple entertainment. It's a tradition that includes F. Scott Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, Fred Astaire, Andy Warhol and, of course, Marilyn Monroe.' (from Didion and Babitz by Lili Anolik) 178 pp. 8vo, qtr cloth, top corners slightly bumped, cloth and edges lightly spotted. Very good in very good dust jacket (price-clipped). Artikel-Nr. CRB267

Zustand: Fine in a fine jacket. First edition. First printing from the noted novelist and writer of these ten California "tales," considered by many her finest work. Babitz's second book (following EVE'S HOLLYWOOD), SLOW DAYS is her acclaimed melodramatic evocation of Los Angeles, a city of "movie stars distraught over their success, socialites on three-day drug binges holed up in the Chateau Marmont, soap-opera actors worried that tomorrow's script will kill them off, Italian femmes fatales even more fatal than Babitz" (NYRB). Increasingly uncommon in truly collectible condition. A beautiful copy. 8.25'' x 5.5''. Original quarter beige cloth over peach boards. In original unclipped ($7.50) pictorial jacket designed by Chris Blum. [10], 178, [4] pages. Barest hint of rubbing, shelfwear. Else remarkably bright and sharp. Artikel-Nr. 55898

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. New York, Knopf, 1977. First edition. First printing. Fine in a fine jacket. A tight clean copy. The jacket is price clipped. Prior owner's neat bookplate on front pastedown. A bit of soiling to reverse side of jacket (about an inch-size stain, although it is not noticeable from the front). Not a book club edition, of course. Comes with archival-quality mylar jacket protector. Smoke-free. This is a beautiful copy of the first edition of Babitz' second book (after EVE'S HOLLYWOOD). Babitz enjoyed a renaissance beginning in 2010 due in part to the reissuing of much of her work by the New York Review Books, Simon & Schuster and Counterpoint Press. Artikel-Nr. Literature-Babitz
