Fantazius Mallare: A Mysterious Oath

Author: Hecht, Ben
Title: Fantazius Mallare: A Mysterious Oath
Publication: New York: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1978
Edition: First Edition Thus

Description: Hardcover. Drawings by Wallace Smith. Very Good. Wraps unevenly faded, bumped at the corners. Square and firmly bound, clean internally. A controversial and dark work about a mad genius. Hecht sets the tone immediately with his eight page forward that ends: "this inhospitable book, celebrating the dark mirth of Fantazius Mallare, is dedicated in the hope that their righteous eyes may never kindle with secret lusts nor their pious lips water erotically from its reading--in short in the hope that they may never encounter the ornamental phrases I have written and the ritualistic lines Wallace Smith has drawn in the pages that follow." Good.
