New York: Doubleday, (2003.) dj. SIGNED hardcover - Selected as one of the best books of 2003 by the San Francisco Chronicle, which described it thus: 'This magnificent, ungainly, genre-cracking new novel by the author of "Motherless Brooklyn" is about all kinds of things -- about the past 40 years in America, about popular culture as a salve for the unpopular -- but maybe most of all, it's about how whites and blacks misunderstand each other. In exploring this, through the relationship of two teenage boys in a mixed Brooklyn neighborhood, Lethem winds up confronting race in America with a specificity most white novelists since Mark Twain have been too chicken to try.'

New York: Grosset & Dunlap, (c 1928)]. Hardcover - The first sentence sums up this early novel by Maugham: "this book might also be called the triumph of love."

The writers who appealed to their age and not to posterity have by contrast a subtle charm" which certainly sums up Maugham's lesser known works.
