Knowing Darkness: Artists Inspired by Stephen King (Slightly damaged, Limited edition hardcover)
THESE ARE SLIGHTLY DAMAGED COPIES, TOTALLY INTACT, BUT HAVE BUMPED SLIPCASES AND CORNERS. YOU WILL LOVE THIS BOOK, GUARANTEED!
Knowing Darkness: Artists Inspired by Stephen King, with an original introduction by film director Frank Darabont. Full color, 11 × 15 inches, 448 pages, over 500 illustrations, over 30 pages of double-page foldouts.
In addition to the wealth of previously published artwork, new works of art have been commissioned especially for this book: Michael Whelan leads the way with a magnificent front cover, and a new interior piece illustrating The Dark Tower. The newly commissioned interior pieces include art illustrating “One for the Road” (Stephen Gervais), It (Bob Eggleton), The Shining (Douglas Smith), ’Salem’s Lot (John Picacio), Hearts in Atlantis (Les Edwards), Duma Key (Don Maitz), The Lawnmower Man (Jason Eckhardt), The Tommyknockers (Alex McVey), Black House and Cell (Zach McCain), Weeds and The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon (David Ho), and others.
Shot from the originals or the artist’s original color-corrected computer scans, free of distracting type or design, the artwork in this book is printed on heavy matte paper and varnished for protection. Every artistic medium is represented: scratchboard, oils, watercolors, pencils, collage, photographs, and digital art. The text, written by King critic George Beahm, looks back at 34 years of King in print. It provides a detailed look at the writer and his life, supplemented with interviews with Michael Whelan, Bernie Wrightson, Drew Struzan, John Cayea, Dave Christiansen, and many others.
Note: Stephen King has not signed this book, nor has he contributed any original text.
THE FACE THAT MUST DIE by Ramsey Campbell (signed limited edition hardcover)
Ramsey Campbell’s daring look into the mind of a psychotic killer was published in truncated form in 1979; an expanded edition was later published in 1982. The paranoid outlook of the book’s main character, Horridge, is a grim commentary on a bleak Liverpool suburb and Thatcher-era England.
This edition has the corrected text by Campbell and the compelling photographs of J.K. Potter, with a new introduction by Poppy Z. Brite, a bonus short story, and a new afterword by Campbell. The Potter photographs are printed so fine that Potter himself called us when the book was published, stating that their austere, full-page, full-bleed presentation was the finest presentation and reproduction of these works that he had ever seen.
The hardcover edition is limited to just 300 copies and is signed by Campbell, Potter, and Brite. Bound in cloth with a handsome dustjacket.
FRANKENSTEIN by Mary Shelley (trade paperback edition)
Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is the world’s most notorious and widely read Gothic novel. It has also been heralded as both the first modern horror novel and the first science fiction novel. More important than either is the novel’s mythical status in society. The rich subtext of Frankenstein and the vast number of readings it can inspire have contributed to the novel’s continued success after nearly two hundred years.
This edition of Frankenstein uses Mary Shelley’s definitive 1831 text and incorporates several critical essays on Frankenstein, discussing its rich symbolism and place in world literature. There is also a valuable bibliography, Mary Shelley’s original introduction to the 1831 edition, Percy Shelley’s original preface, and more. This is the definitive edition of Frankenstein, perfect for the trade and indispensable for scholarly use. This is first in the affordably priced Millipede Press Gothic Novels series.
