But the Hymans did so at a scale which suggests that they enjoyed buying books just as much as they did reading them:<br /> <br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> "Shirley and Stanley's main source of books, aside from review copies that poured in from <i>The New Yorker</i> and elsewhere, was the Seven Bookhunters. This group of men traveled around the country buying books from secondhand bookstores and reselling them, often at a high markup . . . Whenever Stanley and Shirley needed an obscure, out-of-print or otherwise hard-to-obtain title . . . they put in a special request to Scher*** . . . [who] was 'as familiar with secondhand bookstores . . . as a policeman is with his beat' . . . </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Stanley was accorded the ultimate privilege: every year he accompanied Scher on a book-buying trip, sleeping in cheap hotels or on the benches of railway stations, eating and drinking with Scher's friends along the way, and buying <b>as many as a thousand books</b>."</div> <div style="text-align: right;"> (Franklin p. 273-274)</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> As many as a thousand books a year: that's a lot of books. And they seem to have kept just about everything they bought: Franklin reports that at the time of Jackson's death (from a sudden heart attack at age forty-eight) they had at least <b>twenty-five thousand books</b>, maybe more (Franklin p. 273)<br /> <br /> Elsewhere it claims that Hyman knew exactly where every book was (p. 79), but I'm skeptical on this point.<br /> <br /> Perhaps the biggest surprise that emerged from reading this biography was learning that Jackson in her life time was famous for two kinds of fiction: the unsettling psychological horror of "The Lottery", THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE, and WE HAVE ALWAYS LIVED AT THE CASTLE, and also for comic accounts of life with a houseful of kids (think PLEASE DON'T EAT THE DAISIES, which comes from about the same era). Those latter books and stories are entirely forgotten now, but it's interesting to learn of an author with two distinct reputations, one of which endures and the other vanished away.<br /> <br /> <br /> Three misc. points worth sharing:<br /> <br /> <br /> (1) here's a self-portrait of Jackson from the Franklin (p. 159):<br /> <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNKFitWU5Rf2DhzuXjJpHFlqsB5lB1GV3WCQCGndqv3Vak1zFGmdhMN5ULpFveF1Nb55k8bSnh7Wb8tnsZUJOq7R-B1kXax9lgqoWfDIPlOhxVQunWFg2-P0lh806Jb9WOVz7p9AqfXiQK/s1600/self+portrait+2.tiff" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="461" data-original-width="298" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNKFitWU5Rf2DhzuXjJpHFlqsB5lB1GV3WCQCGndqv3Vak1zFGmdhMN5ULpFveF1Nb55k8bSnh7Wb8tnsZUJOq7R-B1kXax9lgqoWfDIPlOhxVQunWFg2-P0lh806Jb9WOVz7p9AqfXiQK/s320/self+portrait+2.tiff" width="206" /></a></div> <div> <br /></div> <br /> (2) here's an evocative  fragment from a poem written by Jackson's pen-friend Jeanne Beatty:<br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> make me a charm</div> <div style="text-align: center;">   so the dark won't find me</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> and the frightful things</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> rise up behind me. </div> <div style="text-align: right;"> (p. 433)</div> <br /> (3) finally, here's a witty clip from one of Jackson's short stories:<br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> I have never liked the theory</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> that poltergeists only come</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> into houses where there are children,</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> because I think it is simply too much</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> for any one house to have</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> poltergeists <i>and</i> children</div> <div style="text-align: right;"> --Shirley Jackson, mother of four (p. 304)</div> <br /> --JDR<br /> <br /> *where I'm happy to report that the courthouse square in my hometown now has not one but two coffeehouses.

I have and have read this.<br /> <br /> (2) <b>THE GRAIN SHIPS</b>, also by Leiber: a fragment of a novel set in Hellenic times that was eventually reworked and completed by Leiber and published as THE SWORDS OF LANKHMAR. Apparently this fragment was published a few years ago in a collection of misc. writings by L; I've ordered a copy of said book and shd soon have the answer to that one.<br /> <br /> (3) <b>QUARMALL</b>, by Harry Fischer. This was eventually taken up by Leiber and used as the core of his THE LORDS OF QUARMALL. What I'd like to know is if Fischer's early version has ever been published, and if so where.<br /> <br /> Anyone know the answer to this one?<br /> <br /> --John R.<br /> current reading: still the Franklin/Jackson bio. <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/12324926298336489295' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/12324926298336489295' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>John D.

When she discovered that her daughter "had a series of dreams about an imaginary country, Shirley encouraged her to draw maps of it and (perhaps recalling the language she once invented) make up languages spoken there." (Franklin p.166).<br /> <br /> The reference to Jackson's invented language harkens back to her college days at the University of Rochester:<br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> Rather than following her syllabi, Jackson pursued </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> her own intellectual interests: at one point she spent hours </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> devising an invented language called Lildsune, complete </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> with grammatical rules, and even wrote poetry in it. </div> <div style="text-align: right;"> (Franklin p. 58)*</div> <br /> No wonder she liked Tolkien!<br /> <br /> But the story about Jackson I liked best was The Dime of Wind:<br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> When eight-year-old Laurence asked his mother how </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> he ought to spend a dime, she suggested that he give it</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> to the birch tree in front of their house. He promptly went </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> outside and asked the tree for a dime's worth of wind. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> To Shirley's amusement, a massive hurricane struck that night. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> "All we could figure was that wind must be very cheap indeed </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> for him to get that much for a dime" she wrote.</div> <div style="text-align: right;"> (p. 166)</div> <br /> <br /> <br /> --JDR<br /> --current reading: the Franklin.<br /> <br /> *apparently Jackson's Lildsune material is now in the Library of Congress <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/12324926298336489295' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/12324926298336489295' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>John D.
