Flann O'Brien's Exorbitant Novels (inscribed by the author)
Lewisburg, PA: Bucknell University Press, 1992. First edition. Hardcover. First printing. Warmly inscribed by Shea on the front free endpaper. Fine in fine dust jacket. Hardcover. 183 pp. with bibliography, index. Since the debut of "At Swim-Two-Birds" in 1939, the novels of Flann O'Brien have both delighted and perplexed gen4erations of readers with a taste for creative havoc. Shea analyzes O'Brien's novelistic career in the light of previously neglected material: his early, uncollected prose, unpublished letters, and two unpublished manuscripts of "At Swim-Two-Birds", composed between 1934 and 1938. Also studies are "The Thrid Policeman", "The Hard Life" and "The Dalkey Archive" Fine / fine. Item #E26590
