I really should, I mean I own 7 of his books. Like most classics, they are books that most people haven't read. I've had a reasonable batting average reading SF classics, and though I didn't care that much for, say Frankenstein, I enjoy looking back at the development of the field. Perhaps some Cabell fan on the net (and I know you're out there) can make recommendations. [C] == Story Collection. [CB] == Chapbook. (A small booklet or pamphlet). [O] == Omnibus. Includes other books. [= ...] == Also known by this other title. /John arpa: jwenn@world.std.com emacsisnotaneditoremacsisawayofthinkingabouttheworld-ly ---------------------------------------------------------------- Cabell, James Branch (U.S.A., 4/14/1879-5/5/1958) Series The Biography of Manuel Beyond Life: Dizaine des Demiurges (1919) [non-genre] Figures of Earth: A Comedy of Appearances (1921) The Silver Stallion: A Comedy of Redemption (1926) The Music from Behind the Moon (1926) The Way of Ecban (1929) The White Robe (1928) [O/3N= The Witch Woman: A Trilogy about Her (1948)] Domnei: A Comedy of Woman-Worship (1913) [rev. 1920] [= The Soul of Melicent] Domnei; The Music from Behind the Moon (1928) [O/2N] Chivalry: Dizain des Reines (1909) [rev. 1921] [non-genre] Jurgen: A Comedy of Justice (1919) The Line of Love: Dizain des Mariages (1905) [rev. 1921] The High Place: A Comedy of Disenchantment (1923) Gallantry: Dizain des Fetes Galantes (1907) [rev. 1922] [non-genre] Something About Eve: A Comedy of Fig-Leaves (1927) The Certain Hour: Dizaine des Poetes (1916) [C] The Cords of Vanity: A Comedy of Shirking (1909) [rev. 1920] [non-genre] From the Hidden Way: Dizain des Echoes (1916) [rev. 1924] [non-genre] The Jewel Merchants: A Comedy in One Act (1921) [non-genre] The Rivet in Grandfather's Neck: A Comedy of Limitations (1915) [non-genre] The Eagle's Shadow: A Comedy of Purse-Strings (1904) [rev. 1923] [non-genre] The Cream of the Jest: A Comedy of Evasions (1917) [rev. 1922] The Lineage of Lichfield: An Essay in Eugenics (1922) [non-fiction] [O/2N= (1930)] Straws and Prayer Books: Dizain des Diversions (1924) [non-genre] Townsend of Lichfield (1930) Preface to the Past (1936) [non-fiction] Sonnets from Anatan (1930) [non-genre] [related] The Judging of Jurgen (1920) [CB] [non-fiction] It Happened in Florida The St. Johns (1943) [non-fiction] There Were Two Pirates (1946) The Devil's Own Dear Son (1949) The Nightmare Has Triplets Smirt (1934) Smith (1935) Smire (1937) [O/3N= The Nightmare Has Triplets (1972)] The Nightmare Has Triplets: An Author's Note on Smire (1937) [CB] [non-fiction] Hamlet Had an Uncle: A Comedy of Honor (1940) Taboo: A Legend Retold from the Dirghis of Saevius Nicanor (1921) [CB] These Restless Heads: A Trilogy of Romantics (1932)
