Tapa dura. Zustand: New. Con frecuencia se acepta que durante el siglo XIX y principios del XX fueron los escritores varones quienes desarrollaron y ampliaron el horizonte de los relatos atroces de misterio, y que las mujeres escritoras se limitaron a seguir su estela. ¡Nada más lejos de la realidad! La antología que hoy presentamos reúne las contribuciones de dieciséis maestras y amantes del miedo exquisito; muchos de cuyos nombres se perdieron en las revistas pulp y underground de principios de siglo. Por fin podremos conocer el lado oscuro de «El jardín secreto», de Frances Hodgson Burnett, y en qué consistían las pesadillas de la mismísima Marie Corelli. Escucharemos cautivados, a la par que temerosos, las voces de las escritoras que poblaron las páginas de la revista Weird Tales, como Sophie Wenzel Ellis, Greye La Spina o Margaret St. Clair, y nos inclinaremos ante lo sensacional, lo surrealista y lo desafiante de sus magníficos relatos de terror. Un conjunto de narraciones que rompieron con las barreras del género en la épocay que levantaron a sus autoras del abismo de la pobreza, de las adversidades de su infancia y de sus vidas de mujeres casaderas.…

Partial split to wrappers at bound edge; light soil, with expected toning to text; Very Good. Vanzetti's brief autobiographical statement, penned while imprisoned at Charlestown State Prison following his conviction, with fellow anarchist Nicola Sacco, for a 1920 armed robbery in Braintree, Massachusetts. The prosecution, though marred by countless procedural blunders and dubious testimony, nonetheless resulted in Sacco & Vanzetti's execution by electric chair in 1927. The current work, in which Vanzetti goes to some lengths to portray himself as a simple (but thoughtful) fishmonger-immigrant, was doubtless commissioned by the Sacco-Vanzetti Defense Committee as a means to humanize the defendant; the article was widely circulated in left-wing and labor newspapers of the period. Of the pamphlet version of the text, at least two versions exist: one dated 1923, without Upton Sinclair's four-page "Appreciation" and Alice Stone Blackwell's foreword dated July, 1923, cover price 15 cents; and this 1924 edition, in which Sinclair's essay appears and Blackwell's foreword reappears, textually identical but redated August, 1924, cover price 10 cents. A Yiddish-language edition also appeared in 1923, but Vanzetti's original Italian text doesn't appear to have found its way into print until much later - we find this strange, as there was certainly a large-enough left-wing Italian readership to have warranted such an edition. All editions are scarce in commerce.…
