Description: Bound green cloth with gilt title and author stamped on front board and back strip. Bit of wear to the tips. The front free end paper and paste down have a 1.5" matching stripe that has darkened possibly from having had a book mark present at one point. This is an unusual volume as the pagination for the contents is all shown as 000. Perhaps a pre-publication which would make it that much more unusual. About the book: "A quality collection of short stories including the remarkable 'Mrs.Bathurst', with its theme of destructive power and obsessive love, plus the strange tale 'Wireless' which concerns spirit possesion, as well as the classic ghost story 'They'; an unsettling tale about a lost motorist and his encounter with a blind woman at the isolated 'House Beautiful', being a companion, rather than a sequel, to the earlier 'Brushwood Boy' fantasy which sees the reappearance of the characters 'Them'. Adept at short fiction, Kipling penned many 'uncanny tales', some being subtle fantasies (They, The Brushwood Boy, The Eye of Allah), whilst others were more overtly supernatural or scientific romances in the manner of Edgar Allan Poe (The Phantom 'Rickshaw, The Mark of the Beast, The Night Mail). Kipling wrote of new inventions and future wars, warned of the social consequences of technological change, and exerted an the most lasting influence on modern science fiction and fantasy writing, according to leading SF writer Poul Anderson; indeed his stories of India, with notions of an (earthly) alien in a strange world are the most salient predecessors of golden age sci-fi. Kipling later stressed he was 'not diving after physical experiences', although he was exposed to and described uncanny events, and was much aware of the irrational premises and feelings of others; his formative professional years were spent in India, a country with a widespread belief in ghosts and spirit re-incarnation, and at a time when matters 'psychic' were fashionable throughout Europe.

Description: A very rare copy of this classic Kipling collection of twenty-four poems and short stories. There is no writing, marks, or underlining except for a previous owner's inscription dated 1904 on the front free endpaper. No bookplates. Spine is tight and crisp. Boards are flat and true, and the corners are square. There is some bumping on the corners and the top and bottom edges of the spine. The gold gilt lettering on the spine is slightly less bright than that on the front cover, which remains near perfect. There is also gold gilt on the top edge. Pages are slightly browned, and the front pastedown endpaper is cracked along the gutter. No dust jacket. These are relatively minor flaws as this copy remains quite appealing. This highly collectible, very good, first edition/first printing copy is protected with an archival mylar cover. Satisfaction guaranteed!
