196929040New York: Random House. Near Fine in Very Good dj. c.1969. First Edition. Hardcover. price-clipped very slight wear to book extremities small rubbed white spot near top left corner of front cover; the jacket is only lightly worn but has a 2-inch closed tear at the top of the front panel. cartoon illustrations Cartoon illustrations of the denizens of "Emotional Heights -- a quiet little town just a stone's throw from Dead Center and a few miles down the road from Hardershee Falls." Get it yet Everybody in this fictional little burg has a name that's a play on words: the undertaker Mort Tician; the richest man in town Andover Fist; the town puppeteer Mario Nette; and so on and on into the hundreds. There are a lot of real groaners here but a lot of cleverness too: the local torch singer is Bertha Dabloos the handymen are Will Ing and Ken Do etc. And by the way paranomastic is correctly spelled "paronomastic" and its exemplars are not to be confused with puns. I'll save you the trouble of looking it up: "Pun and paronomasia are often confounded but are in strictness distinct in form and effect. A pun is a play upon two senses of the same word or sound and its effect is to excite a sense of the ludicrous. Paronomasia is rather the use of words that are nearly but not quite alike in sound and it heightens the effect of what is said without suggesting the ludicrous." Got it . Random House hardcover

1938042171New York: Harcourt Brace and Co. 1938. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. Inscribed by Authors. 1st Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Red cloth spine panel lettered and front cover airplane device in gilt. Text block edges a bit dulled by age otherwise essentially as issued though lacking dust jacket. Stated first edition. xii275 pp. illus. w/ maps. Signed on half-title "For The Morgans / Anne" and while the signature bears a passing resemblance to that of Anne Morrow Lindbergh who frequently inscribed copies to personal friends simply as "Anne" we have doubts that this example is genuine. More often than not Listen! the Wind was inscribed by both Lindberghs given that Charles executed the map illustrations and this example is written on a slant rather than the author's typical horizontal inscription. However the inscription is intriguing insofar as it is "For the Morgans" which would most likely be Anne's sister Constance and her husband Aubrey Morgan who had married in 1937 the year before publication three years after the death of Aubrey's first wife Elisabeth who was also Anne and Con's older sister.
