Boards; dust jacket. Second edition. "Adam Fuss has emerged as one of the bold and truly creative artists utilizing photography today. Fuss's photograms clearly break from those of his predecessors Man Ray Moholy-Nagy and Talbot and while striking a chord of homage the images redefine how and what we see in pictures viscerally and intellectually. Like an eighteenth-century experimenter Fuss utilizes organic and raw materials in an unusual approach revealing spiritual and emotional process. Live snakes the entrails of rabbits eggs cow liver sperm flowers and stained glass circumscribe the vital often mysterious energies emitted from these pictures. This book the first major monograph of the artist's work to date has been widely acclaimed as one of the finest art books of 1997. The reprint appears in conjunction with the artist's mid-career retrospective at the Fotomuseum Winterthur Switzerland." <br/><br/> Arena Editions hardcover books

First American Edition. Signed by the author on the front free endpaper. "In the five novellas that comprise The Orange Tree Carlos Fuentes continues the passionate and imaginative reconstruction of past and present history that has distinguished Terra Nostra and The Campaign. From the story of Columbus's arrival in the Caribbean to the fate of Hernan Cortes's two sons to the destruction of the Spanish city of Numantia by the Romans and the annihilation of Hollywood by Acapulco Fuentes couples the epic grandeur of the spiritual and the historical with the many pleasures of the flesh. "In The Orange Tree" he remarks "I gather together not only all my most immediate sensual pleasures - I see touch peel bite swallow - but also the most primordial sensations: my mother wet nurses breasts the sphere the world the egg". The result is a sensitive exploration of cultural conflict that is also a feast for the senses." <br/><br/> Farrar, Straus and Giroux hardcover books
