From his own birth and childhood on the streets of Dublin to his role as soldier (and lover) in the Irish Rebellion, Henry recounts his early years of reckless heroism and adventure. At once an epic, a love story, and a portrait of Irish history, A Star Called Henry is a grand picaresque novel brimming with both poignant moments and comic ones, and told in a voice that is both quintessentially Irish and inimitably Roddy Doyle's.

Hard Cover. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. This book is in near fine condition. Dust jacket in very good condition with light shelfwear. The voices of Mrs. Midas, Queen Kong, and Frau Freud, to say nothing of the Devil's wife herself, reveal their wit, imagination, and incisiveness in a collection of poems written from the perspectives of the wives of famous--and infamous--male personages. "The World's Wife throws open the windows on the stuffy annals of historical myth and breezes through some of its highlights with a sense of revelry and laugh-out-loud observation. In this wry take on the historical ubiquity of heterosexual coupledom that permeates so many cultural myths, Duffy has separated vibrant women from the shadows of their more famous husbands and brothers, and divorced them from the distortions of historical silence. --Rachel Holmes"

Dunn, Suzannah Sixth Wife
HarperCollins Publishers 2008 0061431567 Paperback Very Good
This book is in very good condition. ***** "A gripping novel of love, passion, betrayal, and heartbreak in the unstable Tudor court following the death of King Henry VIII. Clever, level-headed Katherine Parr has suffered through four years of marriage to the aging and irascible King Henry VIII-and she has survived, unlike the five wives who came before her. But less than a year after the old king's death, her heart is won by the dashing Thomas Seymour, and their hasty union undoes a lifetime of prudent caution. An unwilling witness to the queen's late-blossoming love, Catherine, Duchess of Suffolk, harbors nagging suspicions of Kate's handsome and ambitious new husband. But as Catherine is drawn deeper into the web of politics ensnaring her oldest friend, it gradually becomes clear that she has her own dark tale to tell. For though Thomas might betray his wife for power, Catherine might betray her for passion, risking everything she has in a world where love is a luxury not even royalty can easily afford."

Dunning, Stephen; Lueders, Edward Reflections on a Gift of Watermelon Pickle ... and Other Modern Verse
New York, New York, U.S.A. Lothrop Lee & Shepard 1966 0688412319 Hard Cover Very Good Very Good 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall
Nice clean book and dust jacket, both are in very good condition. ***** "Here are modern poems chosen for their individual excellence and their special appeal to young people. Exciting photographs accent the contemporary tone of the collection. From lighthearted Phyllis Mc-Ginley to pessimistic Ezra Pound; from the lyricism of Edna St. Vincent Millay to the vigor of Lawrence Ferlinghette; from Carl Sandburg on loneliness to Paul Dehn on the bomb such is the range. The little known or unknown poet and the widely recognized appear side by side. Whatever the subject matter pheasant or flying saucer; lapping lake water or sonic boom; a deer hunt, a basketball, or a bud it is all poetry reflecting today's images and today's moods." For children ages 9-12.
