1 Boyle, T. Coraghessan
Drop City: A Novel
New York Viking Press; Penguin 2003 0670031720 / 9780670031726 First Edition, First Printing Hard Cover Fine Fine Collectible 
443 pp.; 24 cm. AS NEW. Dust jacket protected in a mylar book cover. "It is 1970, and a down-at-the-heels California commune devoted to peace, free love, and the simple life has decided to relocate to the last frontier - the unforgiving landscape of interior Alaska - in the ultimate expression of going back to the land. Armed with the spirit of adventure and naïve optimism, the inhabitants of 'Drop City' arrive in the wilderness of Alaska only to find their utopia already populated by other young homesteaders. When the two communities collide, unexpected friendships and dangerous enmities are born as everyone struggles with the bare essentials of life: love, nourishment, and a roof over one’s head. Rich, allusive, and unsentimental, T.C. Boyle's ninth novel is a tour de force infused with the lyricism and take-no-prisoners storytelling for which he is justly famous. / T. C. Boyle is the author of eleven novels, including World's End (winner of the PEN/FaulknerAward), Drop City (a New York Times bestseller and finalist for the National Book Award), and The Inner Circle. His most recent story collections are Tooth and Claw and The Human Fly and Other Stories." - Publisher.

Talk Talk: A Novel
New York Viking; Penguin 2006 0670037702 / 9780670037704 First Edition, First Printing Hard Cover Fine Fine Collectible 
340 pp.; 24 cm. AS NEW. Dust jacket protected in a mylar book cover. "The bestselling author of The Inner Circle and Drop City returns with a timely new novel about a woman in desperate pursuit of a man who has stolen her identity. The first time Bridger saw Dana she was dancing barefoot, her hair aflame in the red glow of the club, her body throbbing with rhythms and cross-rhythms that only she could hear. He was mesmerized. That night they were both deaf, mouthing to each other over the booming bass. And it was not until their first date, after he had agonized over what CD to play in the car, that Bridger learned that her deafness was profound and permanent. By then, he was falling in love. Now she is in a courtroom, her legs shackled, as a list of charges is read out. She is accused of assault with a deadly weapon, auto theft, and passing bad checks, among other things. Clearly there has been a terrible mistake. A man - his name is William 'Peck' Wilson as Dana and Bridger eventually learn - has been living a blameless life of criminal excess at Dana's expense. And as Dana and Bridger set out to find him, they begin to test to its limits the life they have started to build together. Talk Talk is both a thrilling road trip across America and a moving story about language, love, and identity from one of America's finest novelists. / T. C.

The Inner Circle
New York Viking Press; Penguin 2004 0670033448 / 9780670033447 First Edition, First Printing Hard Cover Very Good Fine 
418 pp.; 24 cm. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Light handling soil/back board. Fine DJ. Another copy available. "Fresh on the heels of his New York Times bestselling and National Book Award-nominated novel, Drop City, T. C. Boyle has spun an even more dazzling tale that will delight both his longtime devotees and a legion of new fans. Boyle’s tenth novel, The Inner Circle has it all: fabulous characters, a rollicking plot, and more sex than pioneering researcher Dr. Alfred Kinsey ever dreamed of documenting...well, almost. A love story, The Inner Circle is narrated by John Milk, a virginal young man who in 1940 accepts a job as an assistant to Dr. Alfred Kinsey, an extraordinarily charming professor of zoology at Indiana University who has just discovered his life's true calling: sex. As a member of Kinsey's 'inner circle' of researchers, Milk (and his beautiful new wife) is called on to participate in sexual experiments that become increasingly uninhibited - and problematic for his marriage. For in his later years Kinsey (who behind closed doors is a sexual enthusiast of the first order) ever more recklessly pushed the boundaries both personally and professionally. While Boyle doesn't resist making the most of this delicious material, The Inner Circle is at heart a very moving and very loving look at sex, marriage, and jealousy that will have readers everywhere reassessing their own relationships because, in the end, love is all there is.'" - Publisher.

And from the moment a freak accident brings Candido and Delaney into intimate contact, these four and their opposing worlds gradually intersect in what becomes a tragicomedy of error and misunderstanding. / T.
