London: Goldmark of Uppingham / Granta Books, 2001. SIGNED hardcover first edition - Sinclair at his best - or worst. A unique mixture of fiction, history, and autobiography, set in the Welsh borderlands. As one reviewer commented "There are plot lines galore: murder, suicides, mental asylums, a good deal of bookselling and buying (Sinclair's old trade), readings, writings. There are cameos from the past: David Jones, Father Ignatius, Henry and Thomas Vaughan, and Francis Kilvert are presences through much of the book, and Allen Ginsberg and Bruce Chatwin also pop up. A number of Sinclair's friends and acquaintances also have roles, from Michael Moorcock to the usual cast of odd characters that follow him from book to book, who live, like him, 'on the ledge of the peripheral'. The Jeremy Thorpe affair plays a role. And, of course, there's Walter Savage Landor, towering (vaguely) behind it all." Number 86 of a limited edition of 250 numbered clothbound copies SIGNED by both the author and illustrator on a special preliminary page. 345 pp. plus a 19 pg section of illustrated "files recovered from Kaporal's Caravan". ISBN: 1-862070180.

Boston: Little Brown, (2003) dj. Hardcover - An account of the time Seierstad spent living with the family of thirteen in their four-roomed home. "Bookseller Sultan Khan defied the authorities for twenty years to supply books to the people of Kabul. He was arrested, interrogated and imprisoned by the communists and watched illiterate Taliban soldiers burn piles of his books in the street. He even resorted to hiding most of his stock in attics all over Kabul. But while Khan is passionate in his love of books and hatred of censorship, he is also a committed Muslim with strict views on family life. As an outsider, Seierstad is able to move between the private world of the women - including Khan's two wives - and the more public lives of the men. The result is an intimate and fascinating portrait of a family which also offers a unique perspective on a troubled country." Translated by Ingrid Christophersen. 288 pp. ISBN: 0-316-726052.
