This book is by far the bext dictionary of a Maya language I have come across. It is written by Charles Hofling in collaboration with Felix Tesucun. It begins with sentence structure, which is fairly complicated, and thus helpful to a Western-minded person. It describes in detail many aspects of sentence structures. Best of all for me, it not only defines words with both Spanish and English equivalents, but it also uses those words in sentences - and translates them into both in Spanish and in English-- so that one can truly get a feel for the language. Also one can learn Spanish more easily while trying to tackle Maya. The reason this book was written was to describe this Guatemalan language, Itzaj, because he felt like it was threatened with extinction. A better purpose is that we be able to walk into Maya thought and better accompany them in their struggles for a free and safe life. Like the the Maya themselves, this language is robust and thriving and will be spoken many katuns in the future. One regret is that they did not influence Victoria Bricker to have her fairly good dictionary be as comprehensive as this.

This one of the most remarkable factual documents to emerge from World War II. It is not only accurate history, but it is eminently fascinating--a truly exciting story of a man leading a double life in Nazi Germany. So far as I know, this is the only story of its kind to present an intimate portrait of Himmler--who formed an odd affection for his "doctor," who reluctantly treated him, but was able to rescue hundreds of imprisoned Jews who were released by Himmler under the persuasive powers of Kersten. Reads like a classic mystery story.

I,being the daughter of the deceased, Felix Melendez, who knew of John Knight, was very touched by the book.

I read this book while studying about the Knights of the Golden Circle. This is a must read for anyone wanting to know of the history of the Knights of the Golden Circle.

I was dismissed by my employer, an international organization which with-held my benefits for 5 years. Now it has released them and I am claiming damages and need to know how to argue my case.

I have often read that literature is food for the mind. If that is so then poetry must be food for the soul and this book a feast for the spirit. Where literature deals with ideas, fantasies and the human condition, poetry deals with the emotions, the spirit; the very qualities that raise us above the lower animals (no comments from PETA, Please!). Poetry reaches into each of us and touches that elemental being that many of us deny exists. The Legend of Light by Bob Hicok reaches in and not only touches but pokes, prods and grabs. This, his second book, is the result of winning the Felix Pollack Prize in Poetry administered by the University of Wisconsin. His writing style is deceptively simple. He does not try to fry your brain cells with polysyllabic words or convoluted conceptual phrasings or make you tap a rythym. Instead he speaks to you using common vocabulary but painting such vivid imagery that your hackles rise and you shake to settle your fur. Much of his work has a dark side or, rather, addresses the dark side we would rather ignore. Some poems are equipped with claws that dig into your heart and squeeze till tears come, tears not of pain but of empathy, of compassion. I could not finish his poem Visiting the Wall until the third attempt, his descriptive phrasing affecting me the same as if I had been there. I don't think Mr. Hicok was old enough to be a brother of mine from the 'Nam but he let me once again cry. Another favorite of mine (actually, all but about two are favorites) is Surgery. If memory serves, this was written after his own surgery. If you have ever been undrer hte knife, you can feel as he speaks. "Masked, they cut you, peel back your skin for the legend of light to enter your body. In this moment they love you......." In AIDS, Mr. Hicok manages to convey nothing of being a homosexual, a drug addict or a maligned lover; He does not rail at the injustice of it all. What he does very well is impart the feeling of loss, the joy of love, of needing and being needed. His poetry deals with the frustration of not being able to communicate these things, of being blocked out and locked in. In the end, as the narrator leaves home, his last thought was But all I can think of is that you love as you have to and die the best you can. In the end, that's all that any of us can hope for. This slim volume (79 pages) has affected me more than most books I've read in the past year. Much of the work, as I said earlier, deals with the dark. The dark in us, the dark around us. From Neighbor, about a man living under the bridge to Dogfish Mother all are guaranteed to open the your spirit-eyes and make you feel again. It has taken me most of a year to read, re-read digest and accept what he was trying to tell me. I understood and felt everything but I also had to accept it. I have at last and encourage all of you to do the same. Thank you for joining me. Joe Zucatti

Charles Webb is a poet of surprising versatility who has the sense and timing of the comedy stand-up performer but, just when one accepts his comedic self, touches one's heart with his thoughtful,"Inheritance" and "Chapel in the Pines" and "Floating Loin," as well as the title poem "Liver."
