"Thanks to each of you for laughing and learning with me!

Worse yet, instead of recycling all those notions into a shapely, involving entertainment, he merely repeats one after another--in a numbingly episodic novel that rends like a dozen or so sf short stories strung together haphazardly.

This is an expanded edition of a work which was originally privately printed by Girard Bank. This edition contains an additional chapter titled "The Population Cancer" which Michener had intentionally omitted from the earlier private printing. This Lippincott edition also omits the illustrations by James B. Wyeth which had appeared in the Girard Bank edition.
Mr. Michener is modest about his ability to turn out this kind of book, which is a series of reflections on "where we are and where we are likely to go" as we approach the American bicentennial. And with good reason. For what he has produced is a banal restatement of the problems confronting America: urban congestion; racial tension;… Leer más

Translated from the Portuguese By Barbara Shelby. The 1st Edition of this Brazilian writer's second novel. Set in Brazil in the 1960s, the story of an unworldly priest transformed by his compassion into a 20th-century revolutionary. KIRKUS REVIEW:
A giant, inventive, symbolically ponderous novel about the malaise of Brazil, around the time of the March 1964 military coup. The protagonist is the priest Nando, within whose own soul deaths and transfigurations, Brazilian agonies and emergences, are stated and repeated. From a crypt of bones, a hard Christ of Judgment and his first knowledge of an ancient Marian Christianity--without Christ, Nando begins his journey into life. He travels to a tribe of primitive Indians, led by Fontoura, an angry cherubim guarding primeval innocence and vitality. In a strange expedition through the jungle the Brazilians search… Leer más

Pocket intact, FLEP, Library stamps on pocket dated 1962. Has been rebound into a hardcover, Very Good++. Content appears as unread and unblemished with pictorial boards displaying minimal surface/edge wear, as shown..AUTHOR'S INTRODUCTION The scene of this romance is laid in the fifteenth century, when the feudal system, which had been the sinews and nerves of national defense, and the spirit of chivalry, by which, as by a vivifying soul, that system was animated, began to be innovated upon and abandoned by those grosser characters who centred their sum of happiness in procuring the personal objects on which they had fixed their own exclusive attachment. The same egotism had indeed displayed itself even in more primitive ages; but it was now for the first time openly avowed as a professed principle of action. The spirit of chivalry had in it this point of excellence, that, however overstrained and fantastic many of its doctrines may appear to us, they were all founded on… Leer más

Can Grimm get out of the bank and out of New York, with the money and his two accomplices, and pull off this daring escapade?
And why is he dressed like a clown?

Strangely this novelist has allowed his fictional narrator to fall into the twin traps of autobiography--going on for too long and failing to recognize or feature the best part of a life story. The critical difference is that autobiographers are indulged where novelists aren't. On a business trip to present day Vienna, the morose and middle-aged Kasakh begins telling of his life there before and during the Nazi regime. So, right from the start readers know, with a concomitant loss of suspense, that here was one Jew who got away. Kasakh not only survived himself, he arranged for other Jews to be released from concentration-camps; since he was essential to a nutty top Nazi s inner serenity (SS Gruppenfuhrer Ludenscheid could not move his bowels without… Leer más
