Amis, Kingsley: The Green Man. 00365
Jonathan Cape: London. 1969.
First edition (& 1st printing).
Hardcover.
In Fantasy: The Hundred Best Novels (Moorcock & Cawthorn) #86; Horror: Hundred Best Books (Jones & Newman) #65; Modern Fantasy: The Hundred Best Novels (Pringle) #42. A clean sweep of all three!
''his one major fantasy, The Green Man (1969), is a fine novel by any standards, and among his best. Its disturbing supernatural-horror events are usefully told through an entertainingly flawed and very Amisian (''hero as shit'') narrator, afflicted with alcoholism, family troubles and middle-aged lust. A 17th-century magician, who lived in what is now the protagonist's eponymous coaching inn, once animated a tree-man to do unpleasant business. The magician's ghost tempts the protagonist with power and immortality (in fact intending possession) - against which the protagonist's self-loathing is a shield - and harries him through minutely described illusions all too reminiscent of delirium tremens. There is a remarkable appearance of god, manifesting in the privacy of time stasis as a rather unpleasant young man whose self-imposed conditions of operation require that the wrongness of magician and tree-man be neutralized not directly but by a suitable catspaw. The reluctant hero is given the task, along with a talisman cross and some chilling hints about the afterlife; an exorcism results. A BBC TV miniseries adaptation was broadcast in 1991'' (David Langford/Encyclopedia of Fantasy).
Fine copy in a fine dustjacket but for a touch of edge wear.
