Hard Cover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. First American Edition. First American edition. Blind-stamp on half-title page. 1991 Hard Cover. 103 pp. Author's first novel. In this brilliant tale of violent sexuality, set forth in stark, hypnotic prose, Denis Belloc presents a narrative of the gay underworld in 1960s Paris. As a young child, Denis witnesses his father's death in a sideshow boxing match and is left with nothing but faded photographs. Numbed by his mother's neglect and her new husband's abusive treatment, he turns to Paris's teeming street life and to the sordid corners of the city's public restrooms. He is absorbed quickly into a world of physical and emotional prostitution, and finds temporary stability only with a few lovers and friends. Belloc's detached style is devoid of self-pity, and creates a savage, involving tension that is unrelenting and uninhibited. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Dennis Belloc was born in La Rochelle, France in 1949. His childhood was marred by a neglectful mother and an abusive stepfather, which led him to seek solace in drugs and prostitution. He stated that writing, a career he never dreamed of in his youth, served a similar role ? it gave him comfort. His semi-autobiographical novels deal frankly with the events of his youth. Neons, his first novel to be translated into English, concerns his discovery of his homosexuality, Suzanne his relationship with his mother, and Képas his struggles with addiction. His 1994 novel Les Ailes de Julien was adapted for film in 1998 under the title Victor? pendant qu'il est trop tard.--David R. Godine.

Livre Edition originale
Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. First UK Edition. 8vo. Black cloth. 118pp. Originally published in France in 1987. Author's homosexual first novel, with intentional autobiographical parallels. 'His father dies in a sideshow boxing match when he is only eighteen months old; he despises his stepfather who frequently beats him; as a young teenager, Denis quickly discovers a more welcoming family in the "pissoirs" of Paris.' Faint crease (more of a very light bend) to the initial leaves, otherwise Fine in Very Good jacket (with a quotation by Marguerite Duras), crisp and bright, lightly shelfworn, with the occasional rub to extremities, and with a couple of slight scratches. Loosely inserted are a press release for the book and a slip designating this as a review copy.
