1956113597London: Hutchinson 1956. First edition in English of the roman noir that was turned into the 1958 Hollywood classic Vertigo starring James Stewart and Kim Novak directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Octavo original cloth. Near fine in a very good dust jacket with light rubbing and wear. Translated by Geoffrey Sainsbury. The story concerns a former detective who suffers from vertigo. He is hired to follow the wife of a friend who is puzzled by her strange behavior. The detective becomes obsessed with the woman eventually falling in love with her but unable to explain her strange trances and her belief in a previous life. When she falls to her death from a tower he is unable to save her due to his fear of heights. He experiences a psychotic break. After his partial recovery he encounters a woman who is nearly the image of his dead love and he becomes obsessed with her. In the end she turns out to be the same person he was in love with--an actress who was hired by his friend in order to hide the murder of his actual wife. It was the basis for the 1958 Alfred Hitchcock film Vertigo starring James Stewart and Kim Novak. Attracting significant scholarly criticism it replaced Citizen Kane as the best film ever made in the 2012 British Film Institute's Sight & Sound critics' poll. It has appeared repeatedly in polls of the best films by the American Film Institute including a 2007 ranking as the ninth-greatest American movie of all-time. Hutchinson hardcover books
195721192New York: Ives Washburn Inc. Very Good in Very Good dj. 1957. First American Edition. Hardcover. spine slightly turned a little wear to top and bottom edges of covers age-toning and minor soiling to edges of text block; jacket slightly chipped with old small internal tape repairs at spine ends no impact on text faint almost invisible vertical crease in spine light soiling to rear panel a couple of tiny nicks in bottom edge of rear panel. Yep it's the book from which Alfred Hitchcock's VERTIGO -- anointed The Greatest Film of All Time by the British Film Institute's "Sight and Sound" panelists' poll -- was rather freely adapted. It's a must-have if you're a "books into film" collector and considerably scarcer for some reason in the American edition than in the British which preceded it by a year -- although if you're into that "true first edition" business you really ought to be on the lookout for the French paperback original Denoël 1954 entitled "D'entre les morts" literally "From the Dead." And if you think this one's expensive prepare yourself for serious sticker shock if you happen to find that one. . Ives Washburn, Inc. hardcover books
