Hard. Condición: Fine. Near Fine. First American Edition (stated). Dismissed as just another war time atrocity, the massacre of innocents at Oradour was another story in World War II journals. In the early 80's, while doing a favor for a colleague, the author discovers, to his detriment that the massacre was more than another atrocity by the Germans; that It included partisans and other players along with a fortune in gold. After being stopped by French Customs, his story truly began. Imprisoned for 21 months when he refused to disclose the names of his colleagues; he undergoes interrogations that leave him forever changed. He then begins to research the players [past and present] in this horrific event and uncovers a great number of duplicitous individuals. A real-life murder mystery stretching from World War II to the 1980s. Book is in Fine condition with tight binding and crisp, clean pages; 165 pages; former owner's signature on front flyleaf; dust jacket is in near fine condition with slight rubbing on back side; Size: 8 Vo.

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. (NYRB Classics). The cantankerous & charming, Ebenezer Le Page is one of the most compe lling literary creations of the late 20th century. Eighty years-old, he has lived his whole life on the Channel Island of Guernsey, a stone speck of a place caught between the coasts of England and France yet a world apart from either. The book is a beautifully detailed chronicle of a life, but it is equally an oblique reckoning with the traumas of the 20th century, as Ebenezer recalls both the men lost to the Grat War and the German Occupation of Guernsey during WWII, and looks with despair at the encroachments of commerce and tourism on his beloved island.

Condición: FINE. Trade paperback. A very unusual book, written in a variant of Guernsey English, but one which captures the reader from the very first sentence. Little is known about the author, other than that he was a professor of literature and drama in England, born in 1899 on the Island of Guernsey, and his friends included John Middleton Murray, Frieda and D.H.
