Sidney-Fryer, Donald THE ATLANTIS FRAGMENTS
USA Hippocampus Press 2008 0979380634 / 9780979380631 First Edition Private Press Hard Cover Fine Fine
Donald Sidney-Fryers massive, 550-page poetry omnibus is the most elaborate book ever published by Hippocampus. Its color frontispiece, printed end papers, profusion of interior illustrations, Smythe sewn signatures and illustrated dust wrapper destine it to be a collectors item. This hardcover omnibus presents the collected edition of the trilogy SONGS AND SONNETS ATLANTEAN in a limited edition of 300 copies. "These poems are of an unearthly beauty. They celebrate love, beauty, and humanity; and yet throughout many of them is a consciousness of impending apocalypse. The imagery, lush, exotic, full of colors and magic names, is a welcome relief from the sterile, prosaic poetry of today. If you enjoy tripping on language, this book is for you. Whether the poems really are from the Atlantean or whether they are the creations of poet Sidney-Fryer, they deserve to be read and experienced." -- Charles K. Wolfe. "Sidney-Fryer is, in a very strong sense, a traditionalist; his creations, superlatively original as they are, yet give us a powerful feeling of continuity with our own past and culture; they make us see ... the ideals that moved us when we were less secure and more human: adventure, love of life, and above all, the intricate beauty of a world long vanished yet not vanished, if only we had eyes to see." -- Richard L. Tierney. "Sidney-Fryer has created, in his fictional Atlantis, an entire civilization and a body of absorbing literature. The book should appeal to lovers of poetry, to devotees of science fiction, and to those who admire writers who can fashion a realistic world from the materials of mythology and speculation." -- Earl J. Dias. "Mr. Fryer is a profound student of Clark Ashton Smith, and the influence shows, but he is very much his own poet, and he structures and plays with a surety and deftness which is remarkable." -- Gahan Wilson. "A delightful book of verse purportedly fragments of poetry from the lost Empire of Atlantis that is very much in the tradition of Spensers Faerie Queene. A work that reflects a glittering imagination and no mean talent." -- James Gorski

Goodrich, Dan Clore, Scott Connors, James Blish, Fred Chappell, S. T. Joshi, Carl Jay Buchanan, Phillip THE FREEDOM OF FANTASTIC THINGS - SELECTED CRITICISM ON CLARK ASHTON SMITH
USA Hippocampus Press 2006 0976159252 / 9780976159254 First Edition Private Press Trade Paperback Fine
376pp. As poet, fiction writer, and artist, Clark Ashton Smith (1893-1961) has left an indelible mark on the fields of horror, fantasy, and science fiction. But criticism of his bountiful and varied work has been surprisingly scanty, and oftentimes ill-informed. The Freedom of Fantastic Things represents the most substantial volume of criticism of Smiths work ever published, and includes both original and previously published work by the leading scholars on Smith. Among the notable contributions are Donald Sidney-Fryers exhaustive discussion of Smiths relations with his early mentor, George Sterling; Brian Stablefords brilliant analysis of Smiths cosmicism; Fred Chappells sensitive treatment of Smiths fantastic poetry; S. T. Joshis essays on The Hashish-Eater and on Smiths prose-poetry; Scott Connorss penetrating study of Smiths relations to literary Modernism; Lauric Guillauds rumination on fantasy and decadence in Smiths work; and other essays by Carl Jay Buchanan, Charles K. Wolfe, Steve Behrends, Stefan Dziemianowicz, Ronald S. Hilger, and other leading authorities. At the conclusion of the volume is Steve Behrendss exhaustive chronology of Smiths work and a comprehensive primary and secondary bibliography. All in all, a feast for devotees of the necromancer from Auburn! Scott Connors is the coeditor of Smiths Red World of Polaris and of a forthcoming five-volume edition of Smiths fiction. He is also working on a full-scale biography of Smith.

French, Nora May; Donald Sidney-Fryer and Alan Gullette (editors) THE OUTER GATE - THE COLLECTED POEMS OF NORA MAY FRENCH
USA Hippocampus Press 2009 0982429665 / 9780982429662 First Edition Private Press Trade Paperback Fine
259 pages. Nora May French (1881-1907) is an enigmatic and ethereal figure in American poetry and in the poetry of California. Born in Aurora, New York, she came to Los Angeles with her family when she was a little girl, and in the course of her brief and tragic life she lived and wrote more intensely than many who live a full span of years. Her poetry possesses its own kind of cosmic consciousness, aligning it with the work of Clark Ashton Smith and her friend George Sterling. Its delicacy and pathos render it an imperishable monument to the throbbing emotions and aesthetic sensitivity of the woman who, although beloved by all in Sterling's Bohemian circle, suffered keenly from her own love affairs and committed suicide in November 1907. Now, more than a hundred years after her passing, her poems have been gathered in this volume for the first time. The book includes an extensive biographical and critical introduction by Donald Sidney-Fryer, tributes to French by her contemporaries and by later admirers, and a selection of reviews. Nora May French published no books in her lifetime, but her Poems were assembled in 1910 by George Sterling and others. That volume, however, was incomplete, and many fugitive poems have been added by Donald Sidney-Fryer and Alan Gullette, two of the leading authorities on California poetry and the poetry of fantasy and terror.
