Pictorial Wraps. Zustand: Fine. First Edition. SIGNED in full by author Barry Dickins in black ink on title page. Stories by Australian author, poet, playwrite, journalist, artist, & funny man Barry Dickins. With an introduction by the author. Illustrated with 28 full-page b&w drawings by Barry Dickins (basically one drawing for each section). Wraparound colour cover illustration by Barry Dickins. "Miniatures is a series of biographical sketches that give the reader a brief glimpse into the characters and lives of people with whom the writer has 'collided' over the course of his life: teachers, drinking mates, fellow writers, neighbours, friends, celebrities, survivors of concentration camps - the living and the now-dead - miniature biographical sketches." From rear cover: "I have always loved people, and really they are the subject in this collection of souls. My long and short life has been shared with ghastly and frightening and witty others. Many have come unbidden, floating like splendid phantoms out of the chasm and drain, desk and chair, public transport, Heaven and Hell. Executioners on cheap flights to Israel. Raconteurs who've doubled as hit men. Fast ladies who have loved me and loathed me. Church ministers who've longed to become pedophiles, and tennis coaches who wished they weren't. I have chuckled with Johnny Cash. They're all here, ready to spring. You'll meet them in this book: the more-than-believable, the bizarre. As Fats Waller once wrote: 'You meet the nicest people in your dreams'." Published by Flat Chat Press, Northern Melbourne Institute of TAFE (NMIT). Printed in Australia. A very nice clean tight solid softcover copy. 158pp. Uncommon title, scarce signed copy. SB-29. Signed by Author(s). Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 019233
