Poppy Z Brite Christa Faust TRIADS First Edition Double Signed
First edition, first print hardback of TRIADS by Poppy Z. Brite and Christa Faust and published by Subterranean Press, Burton MI in 2004. Signed by Brite and Faust on a special page between the front endpaper and the half title page. Stated 'First Edition' on the copyright page.The book is in near fine condition (blue cloth boards with blue lettering to spine) with no more than very light wear to the dust jacket, which is not price clipped (tiny bit of rubbing/creasing to edges, bumping to corners, all very minimal). Internally, the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears and no other inscriptions.
In 1937, two young boys escape their cruel Peking Opera training and hit the streets of Hong Kong. Rescued by a foppish half-breed aesthete, they travel to pre-war Shanghai to run a mysterious errand for a shadowy criminal organisation... but then the Japanese bomb China, and everything goes terribly wrong.
In 1945, Nan Blake is a hardboiled Hollywood writer with a secret... she isn't the man her beautiful starlet girlfriend believes her to be. Who is the mysterious Chinese stuntman hiding in the background, and why does he want to help her?
In modern-day Los Angeles, Jake Ryan is poised at the brink of a promising action-movie career... but what if his studio finds out he's gay, and why does he keep seeing that strange, ghostly Chinese man?
Brite and Faust weave together these disparate threads like strands in an exquisite piece of Chinese silk. By turns exotic and thrilling, violent and tender, Triads is a roman noir of a different colour.
