Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Gebrauchsspuren; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveränderung. Is het mogelijk dat op een verre planeet, of in een parallelle wereld, sciencefictionauteurs uitsluitend romans schrijven? Het is mogelijk. Maar in dat geval weten die planeten en parallelle werelden niet wat ze missen. Denk alleen al aan wat sciencefiction op deze aarde zou zijn zonder de verhalen van Asimov, Ballard, Bester, Bradbury, Brown, Clarke, Dick, Disch, Leiber, Lovecraft, Matheson, Shaw, Sheckley, Vance, Van Vogt, Wells, Williamson, Wyndham. Maar vooral, natuurlijk, zonder de verhalen van Lafferty.…

First edition, first printing. Limited edition, signed by the author and Gene Wolfe. Publisher's original purple cloth with white titles to the spine, in the Neil McCall illustrated dustwrapper and purple cloth slipcase. A fine copy, the binding square and firm, the cloth bright and fresh. The contents are clean throughout and without previous owners' marks. Complete with the fine original dustwrapper that is without fading, loss or tears. Not price-clipped (£35.00 to the lower front flap). Housed in the lightly rubbed, structurally sound slipcase. Issued in a limited edition of 260 copies, this example is numbered 148 and signed by R. A. Lafferty and Gene Wolf on the illustrated limitation page. There was also a trade edition of 750 copies (completing 1010 copies in total). Unique to this limited edition is Gene Wolfe's essay 'Scribbling Giant' and an additional story from Lafferty 'The Story of Little Brir-Rose'. A characteristically intricate, imaginatively far-flung Lafferty novel involving the Twenty One Pillars of Rectitude, the Seven Saints to insure the sanity of the World, the Seven Technicians to insure its correct mechanical working, and Seven Scribbling Giants to write its scenarios and histories. The extended, and wonderfully named, cast of characters listed at the start of the book includes Hilary Ardri, the Computerized Fish Tycoon, Gorgonius Pantera, piano-maker of the German Alps, Drusilla Evenrood, an East Sussex Lady, and Countess Maude Grogley, mother of Laughter-Lynn Casement (to name just a handful).

Satin ribbon page markers in every volume. With black and white photographs of the author featured in the introductions. A near fine set, the binding square and firm, the cloth mostly bright and fresh, with some mottling to the boards of volume I. The contents, with light spotting to the top edge of the closed text block of volumes I and III, are otherwise clean throughout and without previous owners' inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the original dustwrappers; that of volume I, lightly rubbed, nicked and mildly spotted (to the underside) with a few light marks to the front panel and a couple of scuffs and punctures to the upper spine fold. The other seven dustwrappers, with just a hint of rubbing to the extremities of volumes VI and VII and a tiny nick to the rear flap fold of volume VII, are free from fading, loss or tears. Not price-clipped. Issued in an edition of 300 copies, from which this set is numbered 48 across all eight volumes, and signed by the cover artist Jacob McMurray in volumes I-VI (in facsimile in volumes VII and VIII) and authors of the introductions Michael Swanwick, Harlan Ellison, Richard Lupoff, Michael Kurland, Neil Gaiman, Scott Bradfield, and Gary K. Wolfe, respectively, in black and green ink on the colophon. Signed by the editor John Pelan in green ink in volumes I-VI, and in black facsimile on the colophon of the last two volumes. The complete collected short fiction of R. A. Lafferty, as of April 2026, comprises eight volumes of an expected 12 total, and marks the first ever publication of Lafferty's entire corpus of short stories. The project was initiated by editor John Pelan, a science fiction-horror author known for founding the publishing house Axolotl Press, who sadly passed away in 2021 before the series' completion. 'The Man Who Made Models' (volume I) and 'The Man with the Speckled Eyes' (volume IV) were nominated for the Locus Award for 'Best Collection' in 2015 and 2018, respectively. In a writing career spanning more than three decades R. A. Lafferty has been nominated for a World Fantasy Award, four Hugo (winning the 1973 Hugo Award for his short story 'Eurema's Dam') and seven Nebula Awards. In 1990 the author was the recipient of the World Fantasy Lifetime Achievement Award. 'R. A. Lafferty is unique, in the old, unspoiled sense of the word. A genius as wild and joyful, delightful and unpredictable as his comes along but once in a lifetime. Cherish him. If there were no Lafferty, we would lack the imagination to invent him.'
