This book is the intense and thought-provoking account of the author's decade of reporting in the strife-ridden Middle East. He has reported from Beirut and Jerusalem, the two cities at the center of the Arab-Israeli conflict. In his journey from Beirut to Jerusalem, Friedman gives us a panoramic view of both the political and personal conflicts of the region. He describes with intense vividness the sometimes horrifying, sometimes wondrous cities, for which, he says, nothing in his life had prepared him.

Translated by William Maynard Hutchins and Olive E Kenny. Language: English. Weight: 22.5 ounces. First Edition Thus (1991), 25th Printing. Trade Paperback. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1988. Book One of the Cairo Trilogy. Naguib Mahfouz's wonderful novel Palace Walk was originally published in Arabic in 1956, and not translated to English until 1990. This is the story of Al-Sayyid Ahmad, a shopkeeper in Cairo during and after World War I, his wife, Amina, and the lives and courtships of their several children. The novel offers profound insight into a different culture and religion. Al-Sayyid has a dual personality -- petty tyrant at home, with his wife and children; bon vivant and man-about-town with his friends. Because of the harsh sexual segregation in his traditional Arab home, his wife is none the wiser, but his older sons learn of first hand then come to emulate their father's lifestyle. Although the subject matter is "small" -- a middle-class family's domestic issues -- this is unquestionably a "big" book, raising issues of religion, class, gender, and integrity. Mahfouz is a truly gifted writer, and conveys his characters with humor, insight, clarity and compassion. First Edition Thus (1991), 25th Printing.…

Plath began keeping a diary as a young child. By the time she was at Smith College, when this book begins, she had settled into a nearly daily routine with her journal, which was also a sourcebook for her writing. She once called her journal her Sargasso, her repository of imagination, a litany of dreams, directives and imperatives, and in fact these pages contain the germs of most of her work. Plath's ambitions as a writer were urgent and ultimately all-consuming, requiring of her a heat, a fantastic chaos, even a violence that burned straight through her. The intensity of this struggle is rendered in her journal with an unsparing clarity, revealing both the frequent desperation of her situation and the bravery with which she faced down her demons. Written in electrifying prose the journals provide unique insight, and are essential reading for all those who have been moved and fascinated by Plath's life and work.
