Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. First edition. Mahy, Margaret. THE DOOR IN THE AIR and Other Stories. New York: Delacourt, 1991. First Edition. As-new cloth in As-new dustwrapper. Illustrated by Diana Catchpole. New Zealander Mahy has written many YA novels; but this is her first collection of weird shorts, aimed at older teenagers but suitable for young and old, with patches of surreal imagery that go way beyond kid lit, occasionally reminiscent of the short stories of Joan Aiken.Two Sisters" is the hardest hitting: one of the ageless twins has rule of Light and life, the other of Darkness and death. Often YA publishers issue their better authors' short stories almost as "a favor" to keep them writing the better-promoted novels, then the publisher issues the "favor" as a short-run book so they can later pretend "short stories don't sell" even if the short run sold out instantly. This book has become rare in fine condition and catalogs $90 to $125, though exlibs and paperback reprints are easily had inexpensively. Diana Catchpole (illustrator).…

Letterpress broadside measuring 310 by 190 mm. Trimmed unevenly along the edges, toned with a couple of splits. Leeds, Mann printer & stationer, November, This three act "domestic drama" chronicles the life of Margaret Catchpole (1762-1819) and was one of many that appeared on British stages in the mid-nineteenth century.   Having been sentenced to death twice (once for stealing a horse, once for breaking out of jail), Catchpole was transported to Botany Bay for the rest of her life. During this time she became "one of the few true convict chroniclers with an excellent memory and a gift for recording events. Her letters of 8 October 1806 and 8 October 1809 are the only known eyewitness accounts of the Hawkesbury River floods of those years; she described graphically the countryside, the Aboriginals, and the wildlife; she wrote of the first convict coalminers at Coal River (Newcastle) and of the savagery and immorality of the inhabitants of the colony, and by her writings added richly to Australia's early history. Richard Cobbold, the son of her former employers, in The History of Margaret Catchpole, 1-3 (London, 1845) provided the source of many plays, books and articles. He distorted the facts brilliantly, rewriting and, in some cases, originating in genteel and proper English Margaret's letters from Australia to his mother" (ADB).   Written and performed the year following Cobbold's biography, the acts listed here "Early Scenes", "The New Place . Bright Hopes", and "Australia" with the list of actors and roles provide the gist of the story.   Rare: the only other broadside we can find for a play based on the same is held by the SLNSW, titled Margaret Catchpole, the female horse-stealer, or, The life and adventures of a Suffolk girl! staged at the Victoria Theatre (London, 1845).…
