About meI love words, sand, breezes and dirt. I love eating good food and sharing my table with friends and family. I am a contemplative by nature and love solitude and moments spent with the natural world. I am middle aged and nicely ripe. I like to think of myself as slightly mad, just left of centre and I prefer to love living, but sometimes find aspects of existence somewhat troublesome. I do laugh a lot and have been known to hide in books when it all gets a bit much.

The earth has received the embrace of the sun
And we shall soon see the results of that love!
Every seed is awakened and so has all animal life.
It is through this mysterious power that we too have our being
And we therefore yield to our neighbors,
Even our animal neighbors,
The same right as ourselves, to inhabit this land.

Leo Gorcey, if i recall correctly, was one of the East Side kids in a series of classic black and white films about street kids on the lower east side. they were very popular films.
you would love NYC and given your connection you could get a few doors opened- most old timers would know of your grandfather.

The cheapest one we`ve seen so far, we could let you have it for around £8 + cost of postage to your part of the world. I`d need to do some enquiring before offering to get it for you though, as don`t really have a description of condition.
If you prefer, we can go on looking for a cheaper copy, that`s OK with us.

P.S. Do you know if there was a paperback ?

Nice to hear from you again.
We`ll look into it and get back to you ASAP.
Cheers,

P.S. Best to use our `real` e-mail address for that type of thing as sometimes I drop out of LT for days at a time - it`s hoonaloon@ntlworld.co.uk. the business itself is Hoonaloon books and Bits - user name Hoon170 on E-Bay UK.

P.S. There is a bit about Hippolyte on the web, I think I found two poems, one I liked, one not so much. I don`t tend to like political poems, do you ? I think I`d rather read a good poem I disagree with than a bad one I agree with.

A friend thought Walker might be a bit dry for a young boy and suggested Belich's The New Zealand Wars. I'm not so sure. What iwi do his people come from?

Thanks for noticing Zable. I read that book when it came out, several years back; I was drawn to it because of the topic, but enjoyed the writing for its own sake too, so I appreciate the tip on his other titles. I'll keep an eye out for them!

Thanks for dropping by. Yes I love this book also. Border Country is quite central to his vision – that tension between community and knowledge that was part of his personal experience and that he would go onto explore in his theoretical works.
