New York, NY, U.S.A.: Random House, Incorporated, 1981. Hard Cover. Near Fine. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. In the middle of writing The Executioner's Song, Norman Mailer received a letter from a federal prisoner named Jack H. Abbott who wanted to warn him that very few people knew much about violence in prisons and who offered to clarify some aspects of Gary Gilmore's life. Mailer began to correspond with Abbott and made a startling literary discovery: the convict's direct, intense prose was decidedly powerful; his letters were extraordinary for their clarity, vividness and ferocity. In the Belly of the Beast, Mailer brings together Abbott's letters to Mailer, edited and arranged according to: Abbott's background as a "state-raised" convict; the bizarre forms of punishment practiced in American prisons; the experience of long-term solitary confinement; the uses and abuses of sex and drugs in prison; the doomed relationship between inmate and guard; the… Read More

Indianapolis, Indiana: American Trust Publications, 1975. Trade Paperback. Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Revised Edition. Copyright 1975. The new revised edition of Islam in Focus preserves the spirit and scope of the first. But in adition, it incorporates the more recent experiences and studies of the author. It speaks to the young and lay readers in a non-condescending manner, and to the adult intellectuals in a provocative yet respectful fashion. It avoids the unproductive theological debates and sectarian arguments. When applicable, historical and comparative issues are discussed. Most importantly, the book presents Islam as a universal, viable, resourceful, and cosmopolitan religion that is not only relevant to every phase of human existence but also necessary for the very well-being of mankind. It uses an approach that is really intelligible, a style that is living, and a frame of mind that is easily understandable to the English-speaking reader. This book is the most… Read More

There must be thousands of adults who have always wanted to play piano but just never got around to it. This book is by one who did. It's part autobiography, and, since the author is host of National Public Radio's All Things Considered, the result is a look into an interesting life. It's also part journal of Adams's first year with the piano-buying it, practicing and not practicing it, and various attempts at learning to play it, ranging from the solitude of the Miracle computer system to the companionship of a stint at the ten-day Autumn Sonata workshop in Bennington. This thoughtful book is sprinkled with history of the piano and pianists, and there are also excerpts from on-air interviews with pianists ranging from Lew Fleisher to Tori Amos, from Dr. John to Lorie Line. An absorbing book for anyone who's ever played piano or just wanted to. 250 pages. Prev. owners name on… Read More

The dramatic story of her experiences during the Great Fire of Hobart contrasts with a sea-picture about her years in a coastal vessel. She writes of oddities like the bottle-tree and stones which explode at night; of people like the pearl-diver who loved Scotch, and Italians building roads through the outback; of wilderness country as different as the Tasmanian mountains, the inland deserts, and the Gulf area; of the taste of camel meat, the tricks of a drover's trade, and the town that should be dead but is still alive. She has travelled around Australia by train, by foot through the mountains, and over thousands of miles of every kind of road in many types of vehicles.… Read More
