Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

A 1992 first edition, first printing of Stephen King's "Gerald's Game," one of his most psychologically intense and claustrophobic novels. This is the story of Jessie Burlingame, handcuffed to a bed in a remote lake house after her husband's fatal heart attack, forced to confront both her physical survival and her deepest psychological traumas. King strips away all the supernatural elements he's famous for and delivers pure psychological terror. What begins as a kinky bedroom game becomes a harrowing test of survival as Jessie battles dehydration, hunger, a stray dog, her own failing body, and the repressed memories that surface during her isolation. The novel explores trauma, marriage, power dynamics, and the strength required to survive when no one is coming to save you. Published at the height of King's 1990s output, "Gerald's Game" showcases his ability to create horror from purely human circumstances. The novel was adapted into a critically acclaimed 2017 Netflix film directed by Mike Flanagan, introducing a new generation to Jessie's terrifying ordeal. First edition, first printing confirmed (number line 1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2 on copyright page). Published by Viking Penguin, New York. Hardcover with original dust jacket. Book is in Very Good condition, with light water damage/discoloration visible at the base of the spine, but otherwise clean black cloth boards, tight binding, and bright, clean pages. Dust jacket Very Good- with minor rollup at the top edge and some ink transfer on the interior from spine contact, but the colors remain bright and unfaded. Unclipped at $23.50. Condition: Very Good/Very Good- An honest copy of this intense psychological thriller. Water damage disclosed in full. Still very readable and displayable, perfect for King collectors who prioritize story over pristine condition.…

Shopbeschreibung

You're building something specific. Not just a shelf of books: a library with atmosphere. The kind of room that feels like it has a history before you walked into it. The problem is finding the real thing. The vintage market is full of book club editions dressed up as first printings, reprints with no dust jackets, and sellers who grade "Good" when they mean "survived a flood." It's time-consuming, confusing, and easy to overpay. That's where I come in. I'm Rob. I worked in the archive stacks at UW's Suzzallo Library. Gothic reading rooms, stained glass, the kind of place where books feel like they matter. I've been authenticating and grading vintage editions ever since. Now I spend weekends hunting first editions at estate sales across Northern California: literary horror, classic sci-fi, and Gothic fiction from the 1960s–1980s. The books that actually built the Dark Academia aesthetic, not the modern reprints cashing in on it. Every book in my shop has been verified for edition and graded honestly. Sometimes brutally. You'll know exactly what you're getting before it ships. Your order arrives wrapped in tissue paper with a wax seal sticker. Because the details matter, and you're not buying shelf filler. If you're building a library that looks like it belongs in a Victorian study instead of a big-box store, you're in the right place. Browse the collection.…
