Queed
Harrison, Henry Sydnor
Houghton Mifflin USA 1911 3rd Impression
 Hardcover Queed tells the story of an idealist who must revisit his opinions when he goes to work on a newspaper. Harrison's other novels include VV's Eyes (1913), Angela's Business (1915), and Andrew Bride of Paris (1925). reader comment >> He's often referred to as a social critic, but the plain fact is that he was a delightful storyteller: the reason this novel, "Queed," was so well received is that it's a joy to read. . . .& this very affirmative review "The novel has a fantastic cast of well developed characters, including one of the oddest heroes you'll ever meet. The wry language of the author is a treat throughout the novel as he goes off on various interesting tangents about journalism, social causes, and the post-war South. I had no idea what the book was about when I picked it up and I could barely put it down once I did." Certainly seems a great adition to your shelves.  Very Good-good/No Jacket

Narziss and Goldmund
Hesse, Herman
Penguin  1973 
 Paperback 301pp review >>> Having read all of Hesse works, I find them all fascinating and profound, but none more so than Narcissus and Goldmund. This masterpiece explores the balance between living for yourself and living for others. These two characters and how they relate and understand the other is just beyond words. I first read this book in High School and over the next 20 years have re-read it many times. It never grows old as it invokes our innermost desires and failures. Do miss out on this great read. overview Goldmund is obviously the possible, and Narziss the actual. Protagonist and intime are yet another variation of Hesse's customary double self-projection: Goldmund is the ingratiat-ing artist-voluptuary he would have liked to be, and Narziss is the re-tiring thinker-ascetic he knew himself to be. Contrary to the implications of the title, the novel is not a balanced recounting of the lives of two protagonists, nor was it ever intended to be. From its inception, the story was to be Goldmund's. A would-be monk & a monk for sure, one turns out to travel life's pleasurable roads, one sticks to his vocation.  Good/None issued

Devil’s Gate

Michael Joseph Penguin  2011 
 Hardcover Plot >>> A Japanese cargo ship cruises the eastern Atlantic near the Azores- when it bursts into flames. A gang of pirates speeds to take advantage of the disaster-when their boat explodes. What is happening in this part of the world? As Kurt Austin, Joe Zavala, and the rest of the NUMA Special Assignments Team rush to investigate, they find themselves drawn into the extraordinary ambitions of an African dictator, the creation of a weapon of almost mythical power, and an unimaginably audacious plan to extort the world's major nations. The penalty for refusal? The destruction of their greatest cities. Filled with the high-stakes suspense and boundless invention unique to Cussler, Devil's Gate is one of the most thrilling novels yet from the grand master of adventure. review >>> "Devil's Gate" begins with the requisite prologue, set on the tarmac in Santa Maria, the Azores in 1951..a mysterious Russian passenger and his luggage are being spirited to the U.S. by an American pilot named Hudson. The passenger is shot before he can reboard the plane and is left for dead. Hudson is also hit and the "Connie" he's flying goes down in the Atlantic. If you are familiar with the Cussler template, you know this incident will eventually intrude on present-day events. If you're a high-adventure enthusiast, give Cussler and Brown a nod. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with this new-look addition to the NUMA Files. Book is in great shape 474pp & 800g packed for post  Very Good/Very Good

George Harrap & Co Australia 1939 1st Australian Edition
 Hardcover This book is the story of a thirteen year old boy from the farms of central China who, with his widowed mother, moves to the big city, Chungking (now spelled Chongqing). Because life on the farm is so uncertain, and, in fact, rather dangerous because of banditry, Fu will be apprenticed to Tang, a master coppersmith. The book portrays a turbulent time, after the fall of Imperial government, and before a new order could arise, a time of war and disunity. This book won the 1933 Newbery Medal for best contribution to American children's literature. review > Great book with huge insight into Chinese thinking and culture. Full of adventure and drama, with a rich cultural background. Very educational, with a focus on character issues!

Lovey Mary
Rice, Lice Hegan
Hodder & Stoughton UK 1934 
 Hardcover This book has been reprinted an amazing number of times since first run in 1903. 191 pp The story begins. Everything about Lovey Mary was a contradiction, from her hands and feet, which seemed to have been meant for a big girl, to her high ideals and aspirations, that ought to have belonged to an amiable one. The heroine of the story takes off from an institution & takes a little one with her review > I would give this book 10 stars if I possibly could! It is a wonderful book...It follows the life of Lovey Mary, a young woman who claims "it ain`t hard to be good when folks love you." She lives at "the home", where a young boy, Tommy, is entrusted to her care. When she finds out that Tommy`s "wicked" mother is coming to claim him, taking him away from Mary, she is quick to take action. I won`t spoil anything, but it is truely a delighful, humorous read.

Penguin UK 1985 
 Papeback A very clean copy of this facsimile edition issued as part of a boxed commemorative set of Penguins with 284 nicely presented pp & covers. "Gone to Earth" is the story of a free-spirited country lass, who is loved both by the wicked squire and the altruistic minister. Gone To Earth - Written in 1917, when all three of Mary Webb’s younger brothers were serving in the trenches of the Western Front, Gone to Earth denounces the callous inhumanity of “civilized” man. Webb’s second novel is a work of high imagination that reflects her horror at the slaughter of young soldiers, yet she never mentions the war that was devastating Europe at the time. Webb clothes her message in the setting and characters she knows best, Shropshire, and translates her anguish and compassion into poetic images. The title of the book is taken from the hunter’s cry, Gone to Earth! when the fox has fled into its underground den. Webb cries out through this allegorical story: why do men, seeing something innocent and beautiful, seek to destroy it? In 1917 Rebecca West proclaimed Gone to Earth as Novel of the Year.

Pink Sugar
Douglas, O
Hodder & Stoughton London 1934 Twentieth Edition
 Hardcover Hugely popular title by O. Douglas, the pen name of Anna Masterton Buchan (1877–1948), a Scottish novelist review - Kirsty's stepmother has finally died, leaving Kirsty with money and the freedom to do what she pleases for the first time in her life. What she chooses is a small house in Scotland, where she lives with her maiden aunt, has spirited arguments with her upper-class landlord, and eventually takes in three children who need a temporary home while their father recovers from grief at their mother's death. Kirsty is another one of Buchan's witty heroines, but she's also unabashedly sentimental; the "pink sugar" of the title comes from her telling off her landlord when he suggests that she's a weak person because she prefers the nicer side of life. I really liked Kirsty's combination of strength and sweetness, and I felt the novel did a good job of showing her growth from a somewhat self-absorbed person to someone who can recognise what's best for others, and see proffered romantic love when it comes from an unanticipated corner.

Last Year When I Was Young
Dickens, Monica
Heinemann  1974 1st
 Hardcover Book's in great order. review/plot Dick Hayes is a young nurse who works with private patients - giving the author scope for a portmanteau novel. But this is much more than that. Dick is a gentle, perceptive character who falls for a girl who's having an affair with her married boss, a radio producer. Fanny is always looking for interesting characters to interview (another gift for the novelist as her ambition takes her and Dick to some strange households indwelt by mediums, poltergeists and genteel wife-swappers). Gradually you realise that Fanny's boss is stringing her along and she'll never be any more than a secretary. Even when she's shed the boyfriend, she keeps telling Dick that she wants her "independence". A lovely book, full of Dickens' trademark social observation and wit. Another gift for the novelist - Dick is the narrator and we only see what he sees. Also he talks like a nurse, rather than a "writer". He has a good idea for people's idiosyncrasies, like the woman at the agency who rrrrrolls her rrrrrs and calls him "Hditchahd!". Sadly we never meet her! Does the story end happily?   Very Good/Very Good
