One Man Show [*SIGNED*]

[a nice clean tight copy, with the tiniest bit of shelfwear; the jacket is edgeworn, with various small tears and tiny chips, a little paper loss at spine extremities and along front flap-fold]. INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the author on the front endpaper: "To Jack [Benjamin] / who discovered[] Cartaphilus / and / who now must find / himself for he is / worthy of it -- / Affectionately, / Paul / May, 1933." A volume of short stories by this prolific author, many set in Paris, that (per the jacket blurb) demonstrate "his brotherhood to the Gallic tradition in literature." Eldridge did indeed have ties to France -- he received his doctorate from the University of Paris in 1913, and subsequently lectured at the Sorbonne -- although he spent most of his career as a teacher of romance languages in the New York City school system.
