| | 1. | [no image] | Sheltering Sky
from Penguin
Customer Review:
I just finished reading this book for a second time and was again struck by how effectively Bowles communicates his themes. We all have tensions and disappointments with our societies, countries, families and friends, but Bowles reveals the terror of complete alienation that happens when we leave it... more info

| | 2. |  | For Bread Alone
from Telegram Books
Price: $10.17
Customer Review:
I liked this book. That surprised me. This speaks directly to strength in narration and artistry of Mr. Choukri, who shows us, in this first volume of his autobiography, the despair brought about by ignorance and poverty. Our young man's apparent lack of hope for a better future is made clear from... more info

| | 8. |  | The Stories of Paul Bowles
from Harper Perennial
Price: $15.96
Customer Review:
This collection certifies Bowles brilliance. I have enjoyed his novels, but these fascinating short stories reveal him to be one of the greatest American writers of the century, perhaps the most under-rated American writer. I like the fact that his stories are often set in exotic locals like... more info

Paul Bowles had already established himself as an American composer when, at the age of 38, he published 'The Sheltering Sky' and became one of the most powerful writers after world war two. By the time of his death in 1999 he had become a legendary writer. From his base in Tangier he produced... more info
