Reviews
"There are a handful of books that are more than literature: they are polished gems of written wisdom. Tales of Adam is the latest of them. . . . Short, pithy and ageless . . . Quinn crafts his narrative with a diamond-cutter's care . . . Here is wisdom for the ages, for all ages, in a beautiful package." - Santa Fe New Mexican, "There are a handful of books that are more than literature: they are polished gems of written wisdom.

Synopsis
Ever since the publication of Ishmael in 1992, readers have yearned for a glimpse into a dimension of spiritual revelation the author only hinted at in that and later books. Now at long last they have it in seven profound but delightfully simple tales that illuminate the world in which humans became humans. This is a world seen through animist eyes: as friendly to human life as it was to the life of gazelles, lions, lizards, mosquitos, jellyfish, and seals - not a world in which humans lived like trespassers who must conquer and subdue an alien territory., Ever since the publication of Ishmael in 1992, readers have yearned for a glimpse into a dimension of spiritual revelation the author only hinted at in that and later books.

This is a world seen through animist eyes: as friendly to human life as it was to the life of gazelles, lions, lizards, mosquitos, jellyfish, and seals -- not a world in which humans lived like trespassers who must conquer and subdue an alien territory. It's a world in which humans have a place in the community of life -- not as rulers but as equals -- with the paths of all held together in the hand of god.This is not an ancient world or a lost world. It exists as surely today as it ever did -- for those who have eyes to see it.

- 1***9 (45)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaI finally made it to the post office in Lancaster MN today to pick up the book I ordered a couple of weeks ago. The book was as discribed and in excellent condition. Very happy with the seller as they were quick to answer my questions before I purchased the book from them. I would purchase from them again and recommend them to anyone else. Thanks again
- r***j (242)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaOne of the best sellers I’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Easy to communicate with, quick to bundle and ship. My books were packaged impeccably, and arrived exactly as described. Couldn’t be happier. Thanks for everything!
- s***a (275)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaI am thoroughly satisfied with this vendor. The book I purchased was everything I wanted! Just as described by the listing and the many photos provided, the book was in impeccable condition. This was due, in part, to how well it was packaged for transit. For what I received, the price was more than reasonable, as well. As were the shipping costs. In the end, I highly recommend this vendor to all who are interested!Blood Meridian Evening Redness - Cormac McCarthy (2010 Hardcover) Modern Library (#286610021707)
