19561262231956. Paris: The Olympia Press 1956. <br /> <br /> 8vo 173 3 pp. Original publisher's stiff green wrappers. A near fine copy with sharp corners and clean pages; light spotting to top text block edge and just a hint of shelfwear to the foot of the spine.<br /> <br /> § Number 32 in the Olympia Press Traveller's Companion series with "Francs 900" on lower cover. A pornographic story of two male house burglars who share a women co-authored by two American women novelists living in Paris. <br /> <br /> Marilyn Meeske wrote one other book for the Olympia Press Flesh and Bone 1957 and also served briefly as an associate editor before the press was shuttered due to censorship legal troubles in 1965. <br /> <br /> Iris Owens wrote four other erotic novels in three years for the Olympia Press all under the pseudonym of Harriet Daimler. "Daimler struggles against her impossible tendency to write more explicitly than the courts will tolerate" the editor Girodias wrote approvingly in the Olympia catalogue of 1957. Owens later gave her pseudonym to the protagonist of the first of two books published under her own name. A dark and intriguing figure - no feminist but a survivor - her work has been reappraised since the reissue in 2010 of her novel After Claude. Her papers are now at Columbia University. unknown

"The Olympic Odyssey takes the reader on a mythic journey from the ancient to the modern Games, telling tales of gods, athletes, and coaches in all their splendid pageantry. But their fabled gold medals are only half the story. Author and life-long athlete Phil Cousineau's real fascination is for what Olympian Jesse Owens called the athlete's "inner life," the mysterious source of the drive, deeper than the one to win, to excel for an ideal beyond the self - transcending gender, race, nationality, and perhaps even the line between the human and the divine.. 257p. illus bibliography. index.
