Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Iris Gray knows witches aren't welcome in most towns. When she was forced to leave her last home, she left behind a father who was no longer willing to start over. And while the Witches' Council was lenient in their punishment, Iris knows they're keeping tabs on her. Now settled in Washington, Iris never lets anyone see who she really is; instead, she vents her frustrations by writing curses she never intends to cast. Otherwise, she spends her days at the wildlife refuge which would be the perfect job if not for Pike Alder, the witch-hating aspiring ornithologist who interns with them. Iris concocts the perfect curse for Pike: one that will turn him into a witch. But just as she's about to dispel it, a bird swoops down and steals the curse before flying away. If the bird dies, the curse will be unleashed?and the bird is a powerful amplifier, and unleashing the curse would turn not just Pike, but everyone in the region, into a witch. New witches have no idea how to control their magic and the consequences would be dire. The Witches' Council does not look kindly on multiple offenses; if they found out, Iris could be stripped of her magic for good. Iris begs Pike to help her track the bird, and they set out on a trek through the Pacific Northwest looking for a single bird that could destroy everything.

Paris, directeur : Paul Fort ; rédacteur en chef : André Salmon. Un volume 16,8x25cm broché de 190 pages sur papier vergé. Manque de 2x2cm au dos sans atteinte au texte sinon bon état. Entre 1905 et 1914, la revue Vers et Prose de Paul Fort a publié tous les grands noms de la littérature. On y trouve tous les genres, toute l'Europe, toutes les écoles : Jarry, Valéry, Apollinaire, Claudel, Gide, Zweig, Stevenson, Mallarmé, etc. C'est la revue où s'est élaborée la modernité. Between 1905 and 1914, the review Vers et Prose by Paul Fort published all the great literary names. Every genre, every school, every european litterature appeared in it. This undeservedly-forgotten review, compared by Jules Romains to the salons of Mme du Deffand, is a little-known site of modernity. Livres.

Auction catalogue (42 x 17 cm); pen annotations in a contemporary hand throughout, two small note papers tipped in to p.3, very light damp staining to margins; original stitched binding loose but holding, edges with tears; 9, [1]pp. A rare auction catalogue listing items ranging from '400 bags saltpetre' to '6 chests rhubarb' to '6 bales Tripoli madder root.' Inscribed in the upper left corner as belonging to Messrs. Howard Jewel and Co., the company's representative carefully noted the price and often the purchaser of each item. The tincal (crude, native borax) seems to have been a particular item of interest for the holder of this brochure; receipts attached to p.3 relate to the delivery of samples of the chests up for sale. 'Auction by candle' or 'sale by inch of candle' was one of the normal ways in which auctions were organised until about the turn of the 19th century. There are two main variations. In one a short candle (usually about an inch) is lit and bidding continues until it goes out, and the last bid made before it goes out is the one that stands. Alternatively, a pin or nail is stuck into a lighted candle, and the bidding stops when it falls out. The present catalogue is a relatively late example, the practice generally dying out around the end of the eighteenth century.
