BOOKS  He who sells a soul a book Gives that soul a sweeping look Through its pages Down the Ages;

Gives that soul a ship to sail Where the great adventures hail, On the sea Of destiny;

Gives that soul a vision-wide As the skies where stars abide And the far Lone planets are;

Gives that soul great dreams to Dream! Sunlit ways that glint and gleam

 Where great Sages Tramp the Ages!   WILLIAM LE ROY STIDGER

A real book is not one that we read, but one that reads us.   WYSTAN HUGH AUDEN

He who works with his hands is a laborer, He who works with his hands and his head is an artisan,

But he who works with his hands, his head, and his heart is an artist.  LOUIS NIZER

18 Charters, Ann The Portable Beat Reader
New York Penguin Books 1992 0140151028 / 9780140151022 Fifth Printing Trade Paperback Very Good No Jacket 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall 
"Beginning in the late 1940s, American literature discovered a four-letter word, and the word was 'beat.' Beat as in poverty and beatitude, ecstasy and exile. Beat was Jack Kerouac touring the American road in prose as fast and reckless as a V-8 Chevy. It was the junk-sick surrealism of William Burroughs, the wild, Whitmanesque poetry of Allen Ginsberg, and the lumberjack Zen of Gary Snyder. The Portable Beat Reader collects the most significant writing of these and fellow members (and spiritual descendants) of the Beat Generation, including Neal Cassady, Gregory Corso, Diane DiPrima, Bob Dylan, Leroi Jones, and Michael McClure, in poetry, fiction, essays, song lyrics, letters, and memoirs." Very good white black pictorial trade paperback. Slight wear, two cover creases. 1992, 12mo, 645pp.

"Greg Daniels' Percy's Edge portrays a powerful story of interdependent and conflicting relationships among socially marginalized characters who struggle to survive and find meaning in their lives. Age of Iron was the first production written by the renowned playright/actor Marie Clements. This innovative work was a clear indication that she would push the envelope of contemporary theatre. Confessions of an Indian Cowboy, written and performed by Margo Kane, is poised to be regarded alongside Kane's Moonlodge as another landmark solo work on Metis, Aboriginal and Canadian theatre."
