To love your fellow human beings and pardon their failings...up to a point,that is. Check Norman Neal Williams and Beauchamp and you'll know what I mean.But I've rarely read a novelist whit so profound a understanding of human nature,whit such piety,and whit such a clear mind on what kind of behaviour just can't be tolerated. The behaviour of those who won't respect their fellow humans rights and freedom. The unkind,selfish,cruel and uncaring. Armistead Maupin's stories are a masterpiece on the study of human soul, and of the complex interaction of individualities each one seeking his of her realization.His comedie humaine is far superior, for his empathy, to the cold,harsh and pessimistic stories of some celebrated minimalists of our time."; 2.3 x 9.5 x 6.5 Inches; 754 pages .

About Dr. Bookman - All Books Tightly Packaged in Cardboard
We have an eclectic array of used and out of print books for you in our inventory. Service is key to our relationship with you. You get \"Old School\" service with Dr. Bookman. We can\'t look at each other in the eye, shake each others hand, or walk into the shop the next day if we\'re disatisfied. I understand that vulnerability. You are purchasing a product sight unseen. That means I must be honest with you about exactly what you are buying. You might find my descriptions more detailed than most others, but when purchasing online, I want you to know exactly what you\'re buying. I don\'t want you to feel surprised when you open the box. And by the way, almost all of our books are shipped in cardboard packaging designed just for books. That means you get it the way it left here.
