Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 2nd Edition. 177, [19] pages : illustrations ; 25 cm ; ISBN 9780918949158, 9780918949165, 0918949157, 0918949165 ; OCLC 23654014 ; LCCN 91013828 ; LOC No PS509.W6 W47 1991 ; Dewey 810.8/03520565/082 ; beige cloth in color pictorial dustjacket ; This enchanting collection of fiction, poetry, and photographs evokes the beauty, humor, and courage of women living in their later years. More than 1.7 million copies have been sold, thanks to its universal message of aging as a natural gift of life. Winner of the American Booksellers Book of the Year Honors Award (1991), and two Benjamin Franklin Awards: for design and content, literature (1988), and for excellence and innovation in marketing, literature (1992), When I Am an Old Woman I Shall Wear Purple has been applauded for its honest and inspiring approach to the much neglected topic of aging. When I Am an Old Woman I Shall Wear Purple has created a network of support and encouragement: the sixty-plus men and women whose work is included, the readers who have taken the time to share how the book has touched their lives, and the booksellers who have so graciously recommended it to buyers. Stories and poems such as Warning, Like Mother, Like Daughter, Love at Fifty, Near Places, Far Places, and Dear Paul Newman tell of the endearing moments of joy -- and passion -- to be found in the rich and varied world of midlife and beyond. This award-winning anthology has earned a word-of-mouth popularity because, as the Los Angeles Times said, the time is ripe for such a message. ; Contents: Warning / Jenny Joseph -- Sitty Victory / Vicky Salloum -- Grandma sits down / Rick Kempa -- Aunt Marie at 99 / Tom Benediktsson -- Here, take my words / Karen Brodine -- The trouble was meals / Elizabeth Bennett -- Like mother, like daughter / Susan S.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good+. First Edition. (patterned cloth; no dust jacket) [nice copy, slight fading to spine cloth, a couple of tiny stains on front cover; M-G-M Script Dept. label on front endpaper, also stamped "Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Library, Culver City"] One of this many "scandalous" novels by this author, who also wrote as Grace Perkins and Grace Perkins Oursler (her married name; her husband was Fulton Oursler, author of "The Greatest Story Ever Told"). At this stage of her career, she was just about the perfect "pre-Code" writer, with several of her books having served as the basis for some of the racier movies of the day -- notably MY PAST (1931, based on her anonymously-penned "Ex-Mistress") and NIGHT NURSE (1931, from her novel of the same name). This one starts with a terrific 8-page "Preamble" -- "which may be read at the start or the finish or completely ignored" -- which decries the looseness of women in modern society. ("Prostitutes and actresses set the style. Not that the two groups can be mentioned in the same breath except as one would say that pickles and cucumbers are both good side dishes.") Although not marked as such, this copy is from the personal library of MGM writer/producer Carey Wilson, who I guess took it home from the Script Department and just ignored the "Please Return" label.
