Adigal, Prince Ilango; Alain Danielou (translator)  
SHILAPPADIKARAM (The Ankle Bracelet)

Publisher: New Directions New York.
Good with no dust jacket, 1965, First Edition, Hardcover Used in cloth. No DJ. A beat-up reading copy only. Bumping and edgewear to the cloth with stains to the back cover, small sticker residue to the spine. Light amount of ink and pencil notes and marks throughout the text. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 211 pages; The primary epic of Tamil literature. The peerless young Kôvalan leaves his loyal wife Kannaki for the courtesan Mâdhavi, and though he returns to her, he still meets his death because of her ill-omened ankle bracelet. The Shilappadikaram has been called an epic and even a novel, but it is also a book of general education. Adigal packed his story with information: history merging into myth, religious rites, caste customs, military lore, descriptions of city and country life. And four Cantos are little anthologies of the poetry of the period (seashore and mountain songs, hunters’ and milkmaid’s song). Thus the story gives us a vivid picture of early Indian life in all its aspects. Prince Ilangô Adigal was a Tamil poet of ancient India and is considered as important to India as Homer was to the Western world. Alain Daniélou was an Indian historian, intellectual, musicologist, and a noted western convert to and expert of Shaivite Hinduism.

These timeless tales are as fresh and relevant today as when they were first created. Full of humor, insight, and wit, the tales in Aesop’s Fables champion the value of hard work and perseverance, compassion for others, and honesty. They are age-old wisdom in a delicious form, for the consumption of adults and children alike.

Alameddine, Rabih  
I, The Divine: A Novel in First Chapters
 Picture
Publisher: New York W. W. Norton & Company 2002-10-01.
ISBN: 0393323560 310 pages; edge wear; I, THE DIVINE is a novel purportedly opening as a memoir, made up of first chapters as the protagonist, Sarah, struggles to find a way to tell her story but abandons each different perspective, be it her own aged 7 or 17 or her adult sister's many years later. As first chapter follow first chapter Alameddine builds up a rich portrait, not only of Sarah but of her extraordinary extended hybrid family formed by divorce and remarriage, of Beirut in wartime, of her mother's suicide, her sister's madness, her ex-husbands, her son. The device works wonderfully, building up layers of Sarah's story in a manner which is subtle, fresh, intriguing and accessible. We are left with the portrait of a dignified, passionate and determined woman who is trying to carve a fragile peace for herself despite growing up amidst political turmoil and internecine struggle.

Alexie, Sherman  
THE LONE RANGER AND TONTO FISTFIGHT IN HEAVEN

Publisher: HarperPerennial New York.
Very Good, 1999, Later Printing, Paperback 0060976241 Used in trade paperback. A clean, tight copy. Minor aging to the paper, slight edgewear. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 223 pages; In this darkly comic short story collection, Sherman Alexie, a Spokane/Coeur d'Alene Indian, brilliantly weaves memory, fantasy, and stark realism to paint a complex, grimly ironic portrait of life in and around the Spokane Indian Reservation. These twenty-two interlinked tales are narrated by characters raised on humiliation and government-issue cheese, and yet are filled with passion and affection, myth and dream. There is Victor, who as a nine-year-old crawled between his unconscious parents hoping that the alcohol seeping through their skins might help him sleep, Thomas Builds-the-Fire, who tells his stories long after people stop listening, and Jimmy Many Horses, dying of cancer, who writes letters on stationary that reads "From the Death Bed of Jimmy Many Horses III, " even though he actually writes then on his kitchen table. Against a backdrop of alcohol, car accidents, laughter, and basketball, Alexie depicts the distances between Indians and whites, reservation Indians and urban Indians, men and women, and mostly poetically between modern Indians and the traditions of the past.
