Description:
196 pages. Octavo (8 3/4" x 5 3/4") bound in original publisher's quarter beige cloth with gilt lettering to spine over red boards in original pictorial jacket. First edition. In her first book, Kadohata works wonders in evoking the mysterious balance, imperfectly held, of a Japanese-American family drifting apprehensively during the 1950s in ``ukiyo ,'' a ``floating world'' of menial jobs and humble yet hopeful upward mobility pursued at the edges of an enchanted but exclusive American normalcy. Twelve-year-old Olivia, the first-person narrator, is a storyteller by temperament and heredity: her sharp-tongued, hot-tempered grandmother, who in her heyday had three husbands and seven lovers, ``owned a valise in which she carried all her possessions, but the stories she told were also possessions.'' Intelligent, impish, perpetually dislocated--``I wanted to stay where we were--where I didn't know anyone and no one knew me''--Olivia soon comes into possession of tales of her own: ``I sort of salivated… Read More

(Bibliotheca Van der Linde-Niemeijeriana: 5339) First edition.In October of 1921, ten chess players of strength ranging from master to amateur met at The Hague, The Netherlands to participate in a round robin tournament. Among the participants were veterans like Jacques Mieses and Georg Marco, and established masters like Alexander Alekhine, Akiba Rubinstein, and Savielly Tartakower. Max Euwe, an amateur, participated by virtue of having become the new Dutch champion earlier in the year. The event was another victory for Alekhine, who would go on to dominate tournaments and the elite for decades to come, most as world champion. First Alexander Alekhine (+7 -0 =2) a full point ahead of second place finisher Savielly Tartakower; third was Akiba Rubinstein half point behind.

(Bibliotheca Van der Linde-Niemeijeriana: 5329) First edition.The Schachjahrbuch declares the "Grandmaster Tournament of Berlin 1918" to have been not only the most important in Germany, but in the world! It brought together the four foremost players of the period: Lasker, Rubinstein, Schlechter and Tarrasch. Like it predecessor a few months earlier, the tournament was organized by Kagan and played out in the Cafe Kerkau. Cafe sponsors provided an unusual first-place prize: 1000 cigaretts made of the finest tobacco! It is matter-of-factly recorded by Bachmann that the cigar-smoking Lasker greatly enjoyed his valued prize in view of the tobacco shortage plaguing German during the closing months of the war. The story of the tournament is quickly told: world champion Lasker, appearing in his first tournament since St Petersburg 1914, and Rubinstein recovering from his disastrous form of April, made the running… Read More
