Pages Passed from Hand to Hand
Anbieter: Crappy Old Books, Barry, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Hardback. Zustand: Good. Some books are memorable for their contents. Others acquire an extra layer of distinction by being ever so slightly, unmistakably, physically peculiar. Pages Passed from Hand to Hand is fortunate enough to offer both: a title of immediate literary charm and a copy-specific manufacturing mishap that makes it feel less like a standard hardback and more like a quietly dignified survivor of a minor publishing incident. Written by Mark Mitchell and David Leavitt and published by Chatto and Windus in 1998, this is a book already blessed with one of those irresistibly evocative titles that seems to contain its own thesis. Pages Passed from Hand to Hand suggests intimacy, circulation, exchange, influence, secrecy, literature as contagion, or perhaps simply the noble old business of books themselves moving through human lives. It is a title that knows exactly what it is doing. It sounds cultured without being smug, literary without being exhausting, and faintly self-aware in that very late-twentieth-century way. And there is something deliciously appropriate about a book with such a title turning up in a second-hand shop. What is a used book, after all, if not pages quite literally passed from hand to hand? This copy has not merely lived up to the title. It has committed to it. It has been handled, circulated, and now arrives at Crappy Old Books bearing the subtle marks of having had a slightly unusual beginning. The first signature, up to page 10, was clearly put in wrong and at an angle, so those opening pages sit a little askew, like a guest who has arrived at a formal dinner with their tie on slightly crooked but excellent conversation. The trim is good, but those pages are missing a modest 3?4mm at the top, which only deepens the sense that this is no ordinary, machine-perfect specimen. In lesser hands, this might be called a flaw. At Crappy Old Books, we prefer to think of it as character. Modern books can be so smugly uniform, so relentlessly correct in their dimensions and alignment. Here, by contrast, is a book with just enough physical eccentricity to remind you that publishing is a material process carried out by fallible humans and obedient machines that occasionally collaborate on something slightly off-kilter. It is not damaged in the vulgar sense. It is distinctive. A little slanted. A touch irregular. One might even say literary in form as well as content. There is a wonderful irony in that. A book about pages passed from hand to hand arrives with its own pages refusing to sit entirely in line, as though the object itself has absorbed some of the title?s themes and decided to perform them physically. The first few pages lean at an angle, not disastrously, but enough to make the book feel singular. It is the sort of production quirk that collectors secretly enjoy because it gives a copy a life of its own. Anyone can own the book. Not everyone gets this version, with its slightly wayward opening act. And of course, such things can be oddly endearing. The text is there, the trim is otherwise sound, the book remains in Good condition, and what you gain in exchange for a few millimetres at the top of pages 1 to 10 is a copy with an anecdote built in. That is far more than can be said for most modern hardbacks, which too often emerge from the press with all the personality of a sealed appliance. This one has a mild publishing wobble and is better for it. As a second-hand object, it is particularly pleasing. Chatto and Windus titles from this era often carry that agreeable air of serious literary publishing: elegant, quietly confident, meant for readers rather than markets. This copy now adds a further layer of eccentric charm. It feels like the sort of book one discovers on a shelf and immediately wants to pick up, not just for what it says, but for what it is. Booksellers love that. Readers should too. So this is ideal for literary readers, bibliophiles, collectors of oddball copies, and anyone who appreciates that the best second-hand books are not always pristine. Sometimes they are slightly strange. Slightly skewed. Slightly more human. This copy of Pages Passed from Hand to Hand offers exactly that: a literary book whose very form hints at circulation, imperfection and continued life beyond its original moment of manufacture. Condition: Good. The first signature up to page 10 has been bound in at a noticeable angle, with about 3?4mm missing at the top of those pages, though the trim is otherwise good. In other words, a copy with charm, quirks and just enough misalignment to make it memorable. Sold by Crappy Old Books. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 6124
