paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Signed. Signed by Author. Greater Aphrodisiad: Or Majorca is Charles Elwellâs lively, observant portrait of Mallorca at a moment of cultural change, blending travel writing, social commentary, and wry humour. Elwell captures the islandâs landscapes, traditions, and characters with an eye for both charm and contradiction, contrasting its ancient rhythms with the growing pressures of modern tourism. His narrative moves between anecdote and reflection, offering a vivid sense of place and the tensions between authenticity and reinvention. The result is an engaging, atmospheric account of an island caught between myth, memory, and the realities of the twentieth century. SIGNED COPY. Photograph available on request.

Paperback. Zustand: Fine. First Edition. Wraps. 8vo. pp 44. Paperback. A short memoir of Sylvia Plath by her friend,the writer Jillian Becker. Ownership signature of Neil Kessel. Wkipedia say this of him: "William Ivor Neil Kessel (1925 Ð 2003) was a British psychiatrist with expertise in attempted suicide and alcoholism." An intimate account of Sylvia's last days "She was lonely, almost friendless as well as husbandless. The flattering courtiers had departed with the king." Abandoned by Ted Hughes, Sylvia found companionship and care in the home of Becker and her husband, who helped care for the estranged couple's two small children while Sylvia tried to rest. In clear-eyed recollections unclouded by the intervening decades, Becker describes the events of Sylvia's final days and suicide: her physical and emotional state, her grief over Hughes's infidelity, her mysterious meeting with an unknown companion the night before her suicide, and the harsh aftermath of her funeral. Alongside this tragic conclusion is a beautifully rendered portrait of a friendship between two very different women. ISBN:1898490317 Fine.
