201711298Serafina NM 2017. Artist's book one of 4 copies on various papers hand lettered with metal pens and sumi ink original block prints with water-based inks signed by the artist on the colophon. Page size: 7.5 x 8.25 inches; 24pp; colophon. Bound by the artist: hand-sewn in red linen thread brown paper wrappers that have been printed with overall pattern of deep brown and vertical rectangular image of matador standing and saluting the crowd with his red cape and sword in his hand on the front on gold gilt ground and a horizontal rectangle image of black bull on red ground housed in cover stock brown paper with block print of matador inserting two banderillas from the 2nd stage of the corrida into the bull's shoulders. The dramatic titlepage a block engraving printed in black and red is followed by an opening page spread that has the text starting "So I went to Spain." on the verso and an image of a bull and picador with the ensuing blood The text lines are curved following the block print lines. This is the relationship between each subsequent image and text page. The curving lines and bulls curving neck as well as the muleta are all intertwined to make striking images of the ritual that Hemingway describes as a tragedy. The artist's images are often stark bold and haunting. This Spanish spectacle is centuries old but is fast losing popular support. The sport in which it is certain that the bull dies is approaching its own demise. The shock of the corrida is aptly conveyed by Paul Maurer's images. The ambivalence of Hemingway's words "If I could have made this enough of a book it would have had everything in it." which is the last text page is indicative of another time. unknown books

1935111655New York: Charles Scribner's Sons 1935. First edition of Hemingway's second work of nonfiction an account of a month on safari he and his wife took in East Africa during December 1933. Octavo original green cloth decorations by Edward Shenton. Contemporary bookplate to the pastedown near fine in a bright near fine price-clipped dust jacket with light rubbing. A very sharp example. Green Hills of Africa was published in 1935 but initially appeared in Scribners Magazine the same year Meyers 1985. The first edition explains that Hemingway "attempted to write an absolutely true book to see whether the shape of a country and the pattern of a month's action can if truly presented compete with a work of the imagination." The author's intentions were quickly confirmed when the first print-run sold a popular 10500 copies and it was aptly praised by The New York Times as "a fine book on death in the African afternoon.The writing is the thing; that way he has of getting down with beautiful precision the exact way things look smell taste feel sound." Not unlike Hemingway's virtuosic abilities Green Hills of Africa also offers the writer's opinions on the value of his contemporaries: "The good American writers are Henry James Stephen Crane and Mark Twain Henry James wanted to make money. He never did of course." Hemingway adds that most American writers are inadequate and "came to a bad end" The value of Green Hills of Africa therefore is three-fold. It serves as masterly written entertainment a successful social experiment that tested the receptivity of the American public and an insight into the author's literary evaluation. The Observer is correct when it wrote "If he were never to write again his name would live as long as the English language for Green Hills of Africa takes its place beside his other works on that small shelf in our libraries which we reserve for the classics."
