Morality Play
New York W. W. Norton & Company, Inc. 1996 0393315606 / 9780393315608 3rd printing Trade Paperback Very Good
206 pp.; 21 cm. Near fine. Tight, clean copy. Age toning. "The national bestseller: A medieval murder mystery full of the wonders of the time - and lessons for our own time - by a master storyteller. The time is the fourteenth century. The place is a small town in rural England, and the setting a snow-laden winter. A small troupe of actors accompanied by Nicholas Barber, a young renegade priest, prepare to play the drama of their lives. Breaking the longstanding tradition of only performing religious plays, the groups leader, Martin, wants them to enact the murder that is foremost in the townspeoples minds. A young boy has been found dead, and a mute-and-deaf girl has been arrested and stands to be hanged for the murder. As members of the troupe delve deeper into the circumstances of the murder, they find themselves entering a political and class feud that may undo them. Intriguing and suspenseful, Morality Play is an exquisite work that captivates by its power, while opening up the distant past as new to the reader. / Barry Unsworth is the author of the Booker Prize-winning Sacred Hunger, the Booker-nominated Morality Play, and many other novels." - Publisher.

Stone Virgin
New York and London W. W. Norton & Company, Inc. 1995 0393313093 / 9780393313093 8th printing Trade Paperback Very Good
309 pp.; 21 cm. First published, 1986. Near fine. Tight, clean copy. Top edge tanned. "In its romantic and dangerous tour of history, Barry Unsworth's Stone Virgin rivals A. S. Byatt's Possession. A mysterious sculpture of a beautiful and erotic Madonna holds the key to the Fornarini family's secrets. When Raikes, a conservation expert, tries to restore her, he is swept under the statue's spell and swept under the spell of the seductive Chiara Litsov, a member of the Fornarini family now married to a famous sculptor. Raikes finds himself losing all moral grounding as his love for statue and woman intertwine in lust and murder. / Barry Unsworth, who won the Booker Prize for Sacred Hunger, was a Booker Prize finalist for Morality Play and was long-listed for the Man Booker Prize for The Ruby in Her Navel. He lives in Italy." - Publisher.
