From doing Graphic design at ECA. Personal project where everything was optional. Book to help you out on those indecisive hungover days where you don't know what you want foodwise. The book is hand stitched by yours truly and elsewise created in InDesign. It has 76 pages and is lightly inspired by Norwegian famous author Knut Hamsun's book also called Hunger from 1890.

London: Penguin/F. Warne, [1995]. Hardback with pictorial boards and dustjacket and decorated endpapers. 59 pages. Condition: Very Good.

 

When Beatrix Potter wrote and illustrated The Tale of Peter Rabbit, she had little idea how popular this story and the twenty-two that followed it would immediately become. No other animal stories have so captivated the imagination of children and adults alike. Today the Tales are bestsellers all over the world, translated into many foreign languages. Frederick Warne uses the most advanced technolgoy to reproduce the original pictures eith a freshnes and degree of authenticity unattainable until recently.

 

These little books should be among the first owned by any child and their appeal is still as strong as when the first story was published.

Wow - I am so tired of vampire books and zombie books. I did not know until I started Swords and Sails that what I needed was a good pirate adventure! Fun and diverting story will bring out the pirate lover in anyone. - L. Summerstone

 

I loved it! This book had me hooked from beginning to end. This is not your traditional book about pirates. The author did a great job keeping the story from being predictable. There were plot twists that I had no idea was coming. I usually only read Christian Fiction, however I thoroughly enjoyed this book, even though it's completely different from what I normally read. I hope there is a sequel and if so, I can't wait to get my hands on it! I HIGHLY recommend this book!

I've spent the past 5 years building a home library for my daughter. As a result, dust jackets blow around our house like tumbleweeds.

Take Care, Take Care, Take Care, the sixth studio album by American post-rock band Explosions in the Sky.

 

The CD digipak and deluxe double vinyl LP both feature the same artwork and quadruple gatefold cover which form a small box-shaped model of a house. From the outside of the house, the front door and shutters are closed, but from the inside, the front door and windows are wide open.

 

A poster included with matching themed artwork is double-sided, one side with roots and the house foundations, and the other side featuring the ground beneath the house. The gatefold also follows the same idea, with a view from underneath the floorboards at the base of the model house.

 

Because the digipak and the double LP are essentially the same but in different sizes, the postcards are relatively sized, as are the posters (the digipak poster is 15" x 15", whereas the LP poster is a whopping 36" x 36").

The usual entertaing stuff from Coben, though his one offs do seem to be quite a lot better than his Myron Bolitar books. He seems to have sort of lost interest in the character a bit and in fact that seemed to have quite a lot to do with him introducing a new character Micky Bolitar, the nephew of Myron, and he is going to be the lead in a whole new set of young adult novels based around him. I wonder if we have seen the last of Myron as a main character?

My boyfriend and I were looking at a bunch of free books on the sidewalk, possibly stoop-sale leftovers or possibly just free, and a woman said to me, "I think the book sales are my favorite part of this neighborhood!" Then she said she has so much to read already, and I agreed. "The pile just keeps growing," I said, and we laughed. Aww Park Slope bookishness.

This vintage edition of 'Ben-Hur: A Tale of Christ' by Lew Wallace published by Ward, Lock & Co and printed by Butler & Tanner in the 1930's. Beautiful hardcover and unique dustjacket (see condition below).

 

Nice inscription "From Floyd, To Dave Xmas 1937"

 

"Ben-Hur is one of the best selling books of all times. This poignant novel intertwines the life stories of a Jewish charioteer named Judah Ben-Hur and Jesus Christ. It explores the themes of betrayal and redemption. Ben-Hur's family is wrongly accused and convicted of treason during the time of Christ. Ben-Hur fights to clear his family's name and is ultimately inspired by the rise of Jesus Christ and his message. A powerful, compelling novel."
