brossura Cosa sarebbe la vita, se non sapessimo cogliere, sotto il velame dell'apparenza, del quotidiano, gli aspetti magici, le pulsazioni di un motore occulto che muove il mondo? "Tùrbine" quattro racconti, ma sarebbe meglio dire di quattro brevi romanzi fantastici. "Dresda": È vero che l'esercito nazista avrebbe potuto utilizzare armi terribili, così efficaci da ribaltare le sorti del conflitto? Può essere che qualcuno abbia salvato, con il suo senso morale, la storia del mondo. "Il frutto di Balanos": Un museo originale, groviglio di scale che formano un labirinto di rampe e ballatoi. Cosa succede, la notte, in quella specialissima galleria, quando viene esposta la leggendaria collezione Gessonier? "Nell'abisso del cristallo": Una famiglia di maestri vetrai. Qualcosa torna dal passato, facendo rivivere i fasti dell'irraggiungibile nonno Ermes. La magia e i colori e dell'arte del vetro rischiano di generare inattese mostruosità? "Storia incredibile del dottor H. Magbude": Londra, anno 1887. Cosa cerca quel misterioso scienziato tra i vicoli luridi e la gente disperata dell'East End? Perché è così generoso con le persone che avvicina nel suo inquietante laboratorio?

Very good. - Over 250 words typed on 10-7/8 inch high by 8-3/8 inch wide "The Washington" hotel stationery with the hotel's crest at top right and a woodcut vignette at top left. The Shakespearean actor writes to James B. Pond "Bim" mentioning that he's heard from Raphael that Pond "had had letters from Ankermiller relative to a proposition about me". Leiber had refrained from getting in touch following the Maeterlinck lecture fiasco as he didn't know if Pond was yet able to give it his "consideration". He goes on to list the success that his recent performances of Shakespeare plays have had quoting figures and goes on to make suggestions regarding a possible tour. "We could use the modified curtain arrangement affected by Southern and Marlowe." and suggests that they would need a minimum of costume and scenery for 4 plays "say Hamlet-Othello which WE have not done lately at all Merchant and Caesar." Signed in full "Fritz Leiber". Folded for mailing with tiny chips to the top & bottom right corners. Very good.</p><p>The American stage & film actor Fritz Leiber 1882-1949 was the father of the science fiction and fantasy author Fritz Leiber Jr. Leiber had a successful career as a Shakespearean actor on stage and on film. He and his wife toured in a Shakespearean acting company which by the 1930's was known as "Fritz Leiber & Co." He made his film debut as Mercutio in "Romeo and Juliet" in 1916 and went on to perform in major roles in the silent era and played character actors in subsequent sound films. Leiber had a peculiar hobby. Each time he performed a new role he had his portrait painted in costume. Of course his son Fritz Leiber Jr. inherited these hundreds of portraits sharing his cramped quarters with likenesses of his father's face. Making the best of it Leiber Jr. later used this as inspiration for his story "237 Talking Statues."</p><p>James B. Pond the American impresario and lecture agent who headed the J.B. Pond Lyceum Bureau brought the great Belgian poet Maurice Maeterlinck to America for a series of lectures. The first lecture took place at Carnegie hall on January 2nd 1920. Unfortunately Maeterlinck failed to carry out his intention to lecture in English because of his labored "phonetic" English. He declared his intention to continue his lectures in French and have the translation read by another person. As a result the lecture tour was a failure and lawsuits ensued on both sides.</p> Washington, February 8, 1920.

PRIMA EDIZIONE-NUOVO
br. Bella si è appena trasferita a Forks, la città più piovosa d'America. È il primo giorno nella nuova scuola e, quando incontra Edward Cullen, la sua vita prende una piega inaspettata e pericolosa. Con la pelle diafana, i capelli di bronzo, i denti luccicanti, gli occhi color oro, Edward è algido e impenetrabile, talmente bello da sembrare irreale. Tra i due nasce un'amicizia dapprima sospettosa, poi più intima, che presto si trasforma in un'attrazione travolgente. Finora Edward è riuscito a tenere nascosto il suo segreto, ma Bella è intenzionata a scoprirlo. Quello che ancora non sa è che più gli si avvicina maggiori sono i rischi per lei e per chi le sta accanto... Mentre nella vicina riserva indiana riprendono a circolare inquietanti leggende, un dubbio si fa strada nella mente di Bella. Il sogno romantico che sta vivendo potrebbe essere in realtà l'incubo che popola le sue notti.
