Product review: I read this book in two days - I couldn't put it down. It's a flip-flop, Freaky Friday kind of tale with a Grandmother and her Granddaughter changing places with each other, each being the age of 20 in each others body.The Granddaughter is sent back to the late 1800's and has to face living as a modern woman in not-so-modern times. She is called crazy by many due to her "uncanny" ability to see into the future. At the same time, the Grandmother is transported as a 20 year old into her Granddaughter's body in the present time.Both have to face enormous challenges living each others lives. This book is wonderful and is a true classic.

Review title: Not a Soundtrack Product review: This album should be called "Songs from The Karate Kid".I expected to see some of the songs on this album but not 'only' the songs. Where is the beautiful instrumental music from Bill Conti? A major disappointment.

Review title: Embarrassing Incident Product review: If you're not interested in poetry so much as what poetry might be for, then welcome to Mr Henry's airless classroom of poetic "technique". There's some good--not great--writing here and the references and bag o'tricks on display leave no doubt that Mr Henry was always at the head of his class (which is their intention, no doubt). You don't get too far into the book without realizing that the desperate alterations of voice and register are not "signs of a restless and probing poetic intelligence" (the typical explanation offered for such pointless post-modern kerfuffelry) so much as an attempt to hide these poem's essential hollowness. Anyhow, the beat goes on. There are undoubtedly nine or ten people who read this and are sure Henry's a genius.

Review title: A Book for Our Time Product review: Kipling said that Afghanistan is a country easier to get into than out of. As the Russians learned, and as perhaps we Americans are learning now. We think of Afghanistan in terms of western eyes, western news sources. We don't tend to think of the view from a local.This is a novel about life in Afghanistan from the life of a young man who is living there as the Russians come in. As such, it presents a view that most of us outsiders can't quite imagine. No only a superbly written story, the tone and feeling leaves one with feelings of great sorrow at the collapse of a society with ancient roots. Highly recommended.
