Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

First impression of the true first edition. A selection of fifty short stories by Jeff Noon, telling strange, disturbing, and weird stories for which Noon is known.The stories are divided into four sections, 'Illusion's Perfume', 'Infection's Courtship', 'Poison's Flightpath', and 'Reflection's Embrace'. ***Near fine in dark-blue cloth-covered boards with silver titles to the spine. The boards are clean and unmarked. Head and tail of spine slightly creased. Corner tips sharp. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. Page block edges clean, with just hints of foxing. Internally also near fine, with no previous ownership inscriptions. Illustrated endpapers clean. No internal foxing. No creases and no tears. Printed on heavy quality paper. ***In a near fine colour-illustrated dustwrapper, which has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of £15.99 on the front flap. The dustwrapper is complete with no obvious faults. No rubbing, creases or tears. No fading even to the spine colours. Dustwrapper bright. ***306 pages. 224mm x 158mm. ***'Jeff Noon (born 1957 in Droylsden, Lancashire, England) is a British novelist, short story writer and playwright whose works make use of word play and fantasy. Noon's speculative fiction books have ties to the works of writers such as Lewis Carroll and Jorge Luis Borges. Prior to his relocation in 2000 to Brighton, Noon set most of his stories in some version of his native city of Manchester. (Wiki) ***'"Pixel Juice" is the collected outpourings of an overactive mind. A selection of fifty stories from Jeff Noon's head, each one strange, telling, disturbing, or sometimes just plain weird. From the breakdown zones of the mediasphere and the margins of dance culture, Jeff Noon samples the image mix. Product recalls, adverts for mad gadgets, dub cut prose remixes, urban fairytales, instructions for lost machines, almost-true tales, dreamy one-pagers, word-dizzy roller coasters. With new stories from the Vurt cycle and other revelations, including the discovery of an 'off' switch for the human body and what robots use for body-piercing, and those difficult-to find, how-to-play-and-win rules for Pimp! - The Boardgame. ***"Call it slipstream, call it Avant Pulp, call if Transfiction, Kaleidopunk, Techno-Whimsy or Genre Melt. Call it what you will, but be quick. Ideas-per-page rating: dangerously close to the legal limit." ***"Think of Borges crossing with Philip Larkin on acid and you've got some idea of its very English enchantment."' Arena (Quote and review quotes (about "Automated Alice") taken from the front flap and back panel) ***First impression of the true first edition, in its original dustwrapper, in bright, fine collectable condition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. …
