Wandering the shattered streets of Southwark Marlene encounters a mysterious gentleman, Paddy Hughes. Consulting her portfolio of drawings as a talisman and aided by spirit lamps, they set out together across the ruined Borough in search of her lost mentor, a man called The Satyr. As Hughes falls under Marlenes spell he is initiated into the secret mythology of her birth from The Danube of her imagination. Unwittingly he becomes her protector while Ms Charnock, a wayward sister of the institute, pursues them, only to be drawn into her patients infernal odyssey. Refracted through the perspectives of the swindler Paddy Hughes, Ms Charnocks reports and Marlenes journals and drawings, the drama builds momentum towards a cataclysm foretold. Interspersed with Marlenes art, drawn by the author, The Satyr is a tale inspired by the life and occult oeuvre of Austin Osman Spare.

Printed in two colors on 80# Finch, with five full-color interior plates, and sixteen duotone images by Vincent Chong. Absolute mint condition, from a smoke-free environment. Aristide Torchia is of course a fictional character. The events of the novel take place hundreds of years after Torchia's death, and he is referenced only as a historical figure. Torchia was born in 1620. He apprenticed in Leyden under the Elzevir family. After returning to Venice he published small works on philosophical and esoteric themes. In 1666, Torchia published De Umbrarum Regni Novem Portis (The Nine Doors to the Kingdom of Shadows), which was in turn based on the Delomelanicon, or Invocation of Darkness, a work supposedly written by Lucifer and that would allow the reader to summon devils. The Inquisition condemned Torchia for magic and witchcraft and burned him at the stake in 1667. A possible real-life inspiration for this character may have been Giordano Bruno, who, like Torchia, was an Italian mystic and philosopher whose controversial books earned him the scorn of the Inquisition, who burned him at the stake in 1600.(Wikipedia). The ancient looking woodcut engravings in the novel were designed by the Spanish artist Francisco Sole. All books shipped protected by bubble-wrap and strong card box. A true collector´s item!

ISBN: 0679434771U first edition (text in English), first printing, signed by Edmund White to FEP, red paper covered boards, cloth spine with silver titles, slight bump to bottom of spine, pictorial dustjacket protected by archival Brodart."Named for the work by Haydn in which the instrumentalists leave the stage one after another until only a single violin remains playing, this is the story of a man who has outlived most of his friends. Having reached the six-month anniversary of his lover's death, he embarks on a journey of remembrance that will recount his struggle to become a writer and his discovery of what it means to be a gay man. His witty, conversational narrative transports us from the 1960s to the near present, from starkly erotic scenes in the back rooms of New York clubs to episodes of rarefied hilarity in the salons of Paris to moments of family truth in the American Midwest. Along the way, a breathtaking variety of personal connections - and near misses - slowly builds an awareness of the transformative power of genuine friendship, of love and loss, culminating in an indelible experience with a dying man. And as the flow of memory carries us across time, space and society, one man's magnificently realized story grows to encompass an entire generation."
