extraordinary account of life in a concentration camp
This is the best and most moving account I've ever read of life in a concentration camp, better by far than Primo Levi, better even than Viktor Frankl, and better even than One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich, all of which are saying a lot. The book pulled me into the daily life in a way I've not encountered so strongly before. Antelme has a gift for providing details that immerse the reader ...

A Wonderful Collection of Poems
This poet clearly experiences the natural world as a vital part of life. The reader shares his experience through the power and beauty of his imagery. He also has a gift for finding and expressing the poetry in life's everyday events. This may involve the humor in the first confession of a young Catholic boy, the joy in taking a shower in winter, or an exquisitely expressed pathos for young ...

Belongs on everyone's bookshelf!
Marilyn Haight's book does an excellent job of turning the leadership paradigm on its head, allowing a younger generation to examine it from an entirely different perspective and to redesign the definition of leadership into a modern prototype. I truly enjoyed reading this book: concise, realistic, and thought-provoking. It belongs in every management classroom and on the office bookshelf of ...

lower extremity
Reading Vollmann is like bumping into your girlfriend's mother as you exit the adult book store with a brown bag full of porn tucked under your arm. It's the shame of having secrets brought out into the light of day for others to gawk at, the shock of recognition, the pain that accomanpies knowledge. It's like being stared at....

Inspirational!!
Dr. Stransky's book should revolutionize the world's view of nutrition, diet, and exercise. He sheds light on the Atkins diet and nutritional supplements which have confused people and reveals many of the myths associated with such fads. He does this eloquently in a way that is easy for the general public to understand, and his work is research supported which gives him credibility. I ...

Gift-giving a struggle? Not after this book
Okay, I know this book is geared towards men - and lord knows even the best husbands and boyfriends can use the help - but I've learned so much about gift-giving from Ann's book. It really does make a difference to the people who are receiving. Not to mention how much better the giver feels by doing it right. Plus Ann makes me laugh - and that makes the medicine go down so much easier!

This Should Be A Movie
The Skye in June is a page-turner set accurately in the San Francisco of my own youth. The story is about a young girl coming of age and grappling with her psychic gifts, secrets and finally, acceptance. Not easy when the turbulent '60's and a religiously rigid father is thrown into the mix. Ahern's great storytelling and colorful dialogue put me right into the center of this Scottish immigrant ...

Pleasing to the Eye and the Palate
I have always enjoyed a good martini now and again, and Tini Bigs is my favorite place to go. Their cookbook lets me do it at home, though nothing beats their ambience. I was really impressed by the photography.

I came to study and left a reader?
As a law student, taking income tax, I found this book very helpful. Most study materials are dry, outdated and horrifyingly boring. Richard L. Haight avoids this typical study book genre by interweaving a series of correspondence letters with tax concepts. I found myself drawn into the compelling story. At the same time, I became proficient in tax. At times, I was more concerned about the ...

Why did Mary Ann Evans write under the name of George Eliot? Her biography tells of a woman ahead of her times. She dared to be herself and tasted freedom for it.

Far from eyes but near to heart... Who is your "prodigal skunk?"
Wonderful and witty, funny and inspiring. Will make you laugh and will equally tug at your heart with profound sadness. But hope prevails once again, in this small tale with a tall message of forgiveness. Would recommend, especially for those who claim to be "Christian" or "teach" the biblical story of the Prodigal Son. Perfect message of forgiveness - not only for Christian believers, ...

It is also valuable for the ...

Hey now
This book is a 1990 Ronin Publishing reissue of Stephen Gaskin's 1980 _Amazing Dope Tales_. The good news: in 1999, Ronin republished it under its original title, with a new introduction by Spider Robinson. If you want to buy it new, look for it under its other title (and see my review of it for further information).

an excellent, insightful biography of a great poet
Amanda Haight produced an marvelous, analytical, informative biography of the Russian poet (not "poetess!") Anna Akhmatova. This woman's life was certainly fascinating in its own right, and Haight makes it all the more interesting because of her clear presentation, good organization, and obvious connection with her subject. The poet's life is covered from her birth to her death in the 1960s; ...

A story of a very interesting man in very interesting times.
The author has captured the life and times of a fascinating man by knowing the man from childhood, seeing those times first hand and the use of powerful writing skills. A terrific read.
