Tapa dura. Zustand: New. Una selección de relatos de horror que muestra lo más oscuro del mundo vegetal. Una antología que reúne a nombres como Roald Dahl, Eudora Welty o H.P. Lovecraft.Orquídeas sanguinarias, bosques enteros que se rebelan contra quienes los masacraron, setas tan bellas como venenosas, robles majestuosos que se convierten en la reencarnación del hombre de la casa, maravillosas enredaderas que reviven espantosos fantasmas del pasado, máquinas rudimentarias que permiten registrar el terrible sufrimiento de las plantas maltratadas, árboles solitarios que señalan el mismísimo umbral a un mundo pesadillesco. Un verdor siniestro recorre la literatura de los siglos XIX y XX y nos recuerda que las plantas, seres fascinantes y misteriosos, benéficos y letales a la vez, encarnan la otredad en forma de monstruo silencioso, al tiempo que padecen los efectos de la avaricia que lleva al ser humano a usurpar y destruir sin compasión aquellas formas de vida que, reducidas a materia prima, pueden generar riqueza.Gótico botánico es un catálogo de historias del mundo vegetal más fantástico, que incluye a autores tan destacados como M.R. James, Richmal Crompton, H. P. Lovecraft o Roald Dahl, y que permite, además, descubrir las inquietantes creaciones de escritoras pulp como Mary Elizabeth Counselman, Maria Moravsky o Eli Colter. A partir de ahora, el verde será el nuevo negro.CRÍTICA«Ya sea como eficaces símbolos de temas universales, en forma de remotos miedos victorianos y de personajes híbridos, peligrosos o sedientos de venganza, los vegetales ofrecen una fascinante variedad literaria, consecuencia lógica de su casi infinita y perturbadora cantidad de especímenes y de todo lo que nos queda por descubrir sobre ellos.» --Patricia Esteban Erlés.…

Cloth. Zustand: Near fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: very good. First Edition, First Printing. Octavo, 288pp. Red cloth, title in white on spine. Stated "First published 1985" on copyright page. Solid text block, light rubbing to corners and edges, slight bend to front cover, a near fine example. In publisher's dust jacket, some sunning to front cover and spine, a few small closed tears to spine, rubbing to edges, a bright example. Inscription on title page reads: "4 March 1987 / Ambassador + Mrs. Edward Perkins / May this book on John Dunn and his descendants shed further light on not only one of South Africa's most unique communities - The Dunns of Zululand - but on the beauty, tragedy and fascination that is South Africa - Warmest Wishes / Charles Ballard." Signed on frontispiece by "D A Dunn / Chairman / Dunn Descendants Association." The letter welcomes Ed and his wife to South Africa and invites them to visit the Dunn family. John Dunn (1834-1895) was a South African settler who represented both colonial and Zulu interests, eventually earning some influence over Zulu people before the Zulu War which forced him to side with the British. After the war, Dunn was granted land ownership between the colony and Zululand, where he raised his 117 children he had with his wife and 48 Zulu women. Daniel Dunn, a descendant of John Dunn, was elected Chairman of the Dunn Descendants Association in 1974. The family has land disputes with Zulus, who claim their historic land was taken from them under apartheid, while the Dunns claim to legally own the land. Dr. Edward J. Perkins (1928-2020) served as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, as well as Liberia, South Africa, and Australia throughout his 25-year foreign service career. In 1986 President Ronald Reagan appointed Perkins to serve as ambassador to South Africa in hopes of fending off a congressional override to his veto of economic sanctions against the country. It was a controversial decision amidst apartheid in South Africa, and many Black leaders urged Perkins to not take the role. Perkins accepted the position and served until 1989, one year before Nelson Mandela was released from prison. He was appointed U.N. Ambassador by George H.W. Bush in 1992, serving for one year. First edition of John Dunn: The White Chief of Zululand, inscribed to U.S. Ambassador Ed Perkins, with a laid-in letter from Dan Dunn, Chairman of the Dunn Descendants Association. (illustrator).

Early edition of this collection of satirical essays in theme with the many Freudian sexual theories published in the 1920s; from the library of writer and social reformer Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Octavo, original half cloth, frontispiece photograph of New York, illustrated with about fifty-two drawings by James Thurber. Signed and dated by Gilman in pencil on the front free endpaper below an antiquarian ownership signature which she has crossed out, "C. P. Gilman Nov. 1931." Gilman was an American humanist, novelist, writer, lecturer, advocate, and eugenicist who served as a role model for future generations of utopian feminists. Best known for her semi-autobiographical short story 'The Yellow Wallpaper,' which she wrote after a severe bout of postpartum psychosis, Gilman has written works on gender and male domination that continue to maintain their relevance in today's society. Very good in a very good price-clipped dust jacket. An exceptional association copy. Elwyn Brooks White was the American author behind several highly popular books for children, including 'Stuart Little' and 'Charlotte's Web.' After 'The New Yorker' was founded in 1925, White began submitting manuscripts to the magazine and was invited to join as a staff writer. White published his first article for The New Yorker that year and joined the staff in 1927, continuing to write for the magazine for nearly six decades. James Grover Thurber was an American cartoonist, writer, humorist, journalist and playwright whose works have frequently been adapted into films, including 'The Male Animal' and 'The Battle of the Sexes.' He joined the staff of The New Yorker in 1927 as an editor, with the help of White, who also jumpstarted Thurber's career as a cartoonist in 1930 after discovering some of Thurber's drawings in a trash can and submitting them for publication. Thurber and White collaborated on 'Is Sex Necessary" in 1929, about which White would later write, "Thurber and I were neither more, nor less, interested in the subject of love and marriage than anybody else of our age in that era. I recall that we were both profoundly interested in earning a living, and I think we somehow managed, simultaneously, to arrive at the conclusion that . the heavy writers had got sex down and were breaking its arm. We were determined that sex should maintain its high spirits.".…

First edition of this collection of short stories; from the library of writer and social reformer Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Small octavo, original pictorial cloth, slip tipped in on the front free endpaper "With the Compliments of the Author." Signed by Gilman on the front free endpaper above the tipped in note. Additionally inscribed by Gilman on the rear pastedown in pencil with her 225 Riverside Drive address and a note to her publisher, which she shared with Hervey White, possibly in reference to her book 'Concerning Children,' "About this size & quality but with paper cover, gilt boards from mss. 5000 Charlotte Perkins Gilman." Gilman was an American humanist, novelist, writer, lecturer, advocate, and eugenicist who served as a role model for future generations of utopian feminists. Best known for her semi-autobiographical short story 'The Yellow Wallpaper,' which she wrote after a severe bout of postpartum psychosis, Gilman has written works on gender and male domination that continue to maintain their relevance in today's society. In very good condition with rubbing and a few small losses to the spine and some toning to the rear panel, front and rear pastedown, front and rear free endpaper. A unique example. Hervey White was an American novelist, poet, and community-builder who was one of the original founders of the Byrdcliffe Colony in Woodstock, New York and the radical artists' colony, the Maverick, known together as the Woodstock Art Colony. In 1915, White planned the first of the Maverick Festivals, which included music and theatrical performances, and which would inevitably become an annual celebration of wildness and unity until 1931. In popular press and local culture, his long hair, beard, baggy white linens and purple silks are celebrated as the hallmarks of Woodstock's cultural identity.…
