Book First Edition
Cloth. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. Off the Map is an amusing, fact-filled book that recharts geography and human history through the eyes of intrepid seafarers, arrogant imperialists, feuding neighbors, gullible mapmakers, and bumbling tourists from the time of Ptolemy to the breakup of Yugoslavia. Far from being straightforward labels for countries or regions, place-names and the maps that establish them can reveal a sensitive record of exploration, conquest, and liberation, shot through with geographic error, linguistic decay, and ethnic misunderstanding. Included are maps, illustrations, a bibliography, and an index. This copy is clean and solid.

Paperback. Paperback Edition: First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. Near Fine in Wraps: shows only minor indications of use: just a hint of wear to extremities; faint crease at the lower front panel. Binding shows barely discernible lean, but remains perfectly secure; text clean. Very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 12mo. 165pp. Line Drawings by Ryuji Watanabe. Translated by Margaret Mitsutani. Winner of the Akutagawa Prize. ITrade Paperback. In these three stories, an ingenious Japanese writer has created a new kind of fantasy, playful yet vaguely sinister, laced with her own brand of humor: a blend of the earthiness of certain fairy tales and the absurdity of much of real life. In "The Bridegroom Was a Dog, " an offbeat cram school teacher tells her pupils a story about a little princess whose hand in marriage is promised to a dog as a reward for licking her bottom clean, only to have her own life turned upside down by the sudden appearance of a dog-like young man named Taro with a predilection for the same part of her anatomy. When rumor-mongering housewives try to force them into a more respectable relationship, both she and Taro escape into new relationships of their own. The heroine of "Missing Heels" is a mail-order bride who crosses an invisible border into a strange land where her husband's identity remains a mystery. Her encounters with people suspicious of her and intent on improving her, including a doctor who wants to reconstruct her feet, provide a wickedly funny view of an "advanced" society's attitude toward outsiders. The narrator of "The Gotthard Railway, " originally written in German, is a young woman who prefers the darkness of tunnels to the Italian sunshine that intellectuals like her German boyfriend long for. Her train ride through the bowels of St. Gotthard exposes us to new ways of seeing things - flags and maps, place names and the landscapes that give rise to them. First Ed thus; First Printing indicated.

The DJ shows only the mildest rubbing and the faintest sunning to the peach-toned background field of the rear panel; the price is intact. Virtually 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 12mo. 258 pages. The hardcover edition was published the previous year. Paperback: French Wraps [with DJ]. I loved 'A Zen Romance'. It is the true story of a young woman's years in Japan in the sixties and her experiences in all facets of the world she encountered - religions, monasteries, men, food and many wise and not so wise, fascinating characters. Far from being a self-aggrandizing memoir, a travelogue or a spiritual manual, this book reads like a rich, delicious novel. Sandra Boliver Boehm writes with a sense of humor about her college-age self, and with meticulous and sensual detail about her experiences in Japan in the 1970's. Her relationship with the men in the Zen monastery she lived near is a great story in itself. Another story is that throughout she was a "militant virgin." Her descriptions of the food she ate are enough to make a reader crave sushi every night. This is a phenominal coming-of-age tale, and a must for any intelligent young woman with a lust for adventure. What I especially loved was that she kept her perspective and especially her sense of humor. Everyone should read this book. I can't recommend it highly enough.
