The cover shows The Fox and the Stork by Jean-Baptiste Oudry in the Musee National de Versailles (Photo: Giraudon). keywords: Literature France Translated Fables. FROM THE PUBLISHER - Jean de La Fontaine (1621-95) is celebrated for his charm, his absent-mindedness and, above all, his wonderful books of fables. Plundering Aesop, Phaedrus, Bidpai and the Persians, Italians and French, he reinvented the fable in a verse full of irresistible brio and freshness. His tales of speaking animals are always rooted firmly in the human world, and collectively they represent one of the high points of European civilization, achieving, over three centuries, an almost proverbial familiarity. How inquisitive La Fontaine was, how indefatigable .…

FROM THE PUBLISHER - With Michael Jordan and the New Global Capitalism, Walter LaFeber has written a biography, a social history, and a far-ranging economic critique. From basketball prodigy to international phenomenon to seductive commercial ideal, Michael Jordan is the supreme example of how American corporations have used technology in a brave, massively wired new world to sell their products in every corner of the globe. LaFeber's examination of Nike and its particular dominion over the global marketplace is often scathing, while his fascinating mini-biography of Michael Jordan and the commercial history of basketball reveal much about American society. For this new paperback edition, LaFeber has added a chapter on globalization in a changed world, after mass protests and since September 11.…

FROM THE PUBLISHER - The systematic corruption of the innocent by two partners - in - jealousy is the theme of Les Liaisons Dangereuses, the great French novel that crystallizes the tragedy of the highly civilized society where the intellect reigns supreme in every facet of life, especially love. Revealed through their intimate, wickedly detached correspondence.; the conquests effected by the Marquise de Merteuil and the libertine Valmont, her former lover, are, on the surface, motivated by revenge. In a deeper sense, they are seen to be the results of a power struggle between the pair for sexual supremacy. Laclos has likened their exposure and eventual ruin to the doom of the hyperrational…

New York. 1945. Hill & Wang. 4th Paperback Printing. Very Good in Slightly Worn Wrappers. Translated from the Swedish by Alexandra Dick. 228 pages. paperback. keywords: Literature Translated Sweden Scandinavia . FROM THE PUBLISHER - The narrator of this novel is a dwarf at the court of an Italian Renaissance prince-his master's favorite, mascot, plaything, and evil genius. He is a kind of articulate, clever Caliban, whose intuition for evil in others brings him great power and finally causes his downfall. A great antagonism develops between the dwarf and Maestro Bernardo, a painter and inventor reminiscent of Leonardo da Vinci, who seeks to encourage the prince's humanistic leanings. The story reaches a climax when the prince's enemies, with whom he has at last made peace, are treacherously murdered at a banquet, and the licentious princess turns away from her sins to the religious life: in both these events, the dwarf plays a sinister part. This drama of the conflict in man's soul…

FROM THE PUBLISHER - The Collected Poems of Philip Lamantia represents the lifework of the most visionary poet of the American postwar generation. Philip Lamantia (1927-2005) played a major role in shaping the poetics of both the Beat and the Surrealist movements in the United States. First mentored by the San Francisco poet Kenneth Rexroth, the teenage Lamantia also came to the attention of the French Surrealist leader AndrE Breton, who, after reading Lamantia's youthful work, hailed him as a voice that rises once in a hundred years. Later, Lamantia went on the road with Jack Kerouac and shared the stage with Allen Ginsberg at the famous Six Gallery reading in San Francisco, where Ginsburg first read…

FROM THE PUBLISHER - THE EMIGRANTS begins in a sense where Mr. Lamming's first prose narrative, IN THE CASTLE OF MY SKIN, left off. The emigrants are a group of West Indians who have set out for England in a blind search for a better break.' In three sections - A Voyage,' Rooms and Residents,' and Another Time' - Mr. Lamming describes their voyage over and their settlement in the mother country. He shows us the small world of the emigrants, torn loose from their native moorings, within the larger world of England. Writing lyrically and with imagination, he reveals their aspirations and doubts, their bewilderment and lonely isolation as they seek to find roots in an unfamiliar society whose complex terms…

FROM THE PUBLISHER - It has been more than twenty years since President Nixon declared the War on Drugs. In On Drugs, David Lenson delivers a scathing indictment of this war as an effort based, like all attempts to eradicate 'getting high', on an incomplete understanding of human nature. From lotus-eaters to hippies to crackheads, he contends, history has shown the state's inability to legislate the bloodstreams of its citizens. Lenson ventures beyond conventional genres to view the drug debate from the largely forgotten perspective of those who use drugs. In successfully walking the fine line between the antidrug hysteria of the 1980s and an advocacy of drug use, Lenson shatters the ban on debate regarding drugs enforced in the 'Just Say No' campaign and reveals the myriad ways 'straight society' demonizes…
