Book Description
(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)
R. K. Narayan (1906—2001) witnessed nearly a century of change in his native India and captured it in fiction of uncommon warmth and vibrancy. The four novels collected here, all written during British rule, bring colonial India into intimate focus through the narrative gifts of this master of literary realism.
Swami and Friends introduces us to Narayan’s beloved fictional town of Malgudi, where ten-year-old Swaminathan’s excitement about his country’s initial stirrings for independence competes with his ardor for cricket and all other things British. The Bachelor of Arts is a poignant coming-of-age novel about a young man flush with first love, but whose freedom to pursue it is hindered by the fixed ideas of his traditional Hindu family. In The Dark Room, Narayan’s portrait of aggrieved domesticity, the docile and obedient Savitri, like many Malgudi women, is torn between submitting to her husband’s humiliations and trying to escape them. The title character in The English Teacher, Narayan’s most autobiographical novel, searches for meaning when the death of his young wife deprives him of his greatest source of happiness.
These pioneering novels, luminous in their detail and refreshingly free of artifice, are a gift to twentieth-century literature.

Wonderful characters.......2007-03-21
I think this is up there with Shana. I loved the characters and there were
times when I could not stop laughing. I didn't mind that Maxim didn't come
in until about 140 pages, because it gave the story time to build. But when he did...oh my god!!!!! It's been a month since I finished the book and I still go back to re-read it every day. Kathleen Woodiwiss is great.
a favorite.......2007-03-19
I loved this book! Elise is fiesty and Maxim is the man of anyones dreams. There are some truly funny scenes and lots of adventure. I highly recommend this book!
Great read, but wordy..........2006-10-10
I agree that the author could have toned down her superfluous nature just a bit...taken into context, though, the flowery language is really perfect, seeing as how the characters are straight out of Elizabethan England...do we harp on Shakespeare for his overuse of the English language? All in all, I love this book because it is such a romantic story--handsome man is wrongfully accused, beautiful girl is wrongfully kidnapped, both become virtually trapped together inside a crumbling, wintry fortress, much fighting, hilarity and ultimately love ensue--what's not to like? And I always was partial toward the fiesty, hard-headed heroines...none of these simpering, pampered dolls for me. Not a brain-teaser, but a light read that I enjoy over and over again. I said 4 stars, but I'd give it 4 1/2, really.
Way Too Verbose.......2004-10-22
Woodiwiss has good basic plotlines, likeable characters, and a good moodsetting, but she is way too verbose. It really gets tedious after the first 400 pages of this 650+ page book. It seems like she is trying too hard to demonstrate her excellently fabulous, superfluously educated, bemusingly extensive vocabulary. Who wants to work that hard in their leisuretime? If the reader wants to find out what happens next, she has to sift through eight or more assininely superfluous, extremely bemusing, long descriptive paragraphs to get the the next word in each dialogue. Please. I found myself skipping entire paragraphs, and just reading the dialogue. Had a hard time finishing this one.
Very enjoyable.......2004-09-23
I almost did not read this book because of the spotlight reviews. After having read it, I believe the spotlight reviews need to be changed in order to not deter any more people from reading this book. I did not think the wait for Maxim was so horrible. In fact, I really felt the pages with Nicholas flew by. Once Maxim entered the story, things really began to cook though. Absolutely loved the pranks the two pulled on each other. I was almost sad to see them finally fall in love because I enjoyed their hilarious fighting so much. In this book, in particular, I felt that Woodiwiss did a fabulous job aquainting us with the characters. I felt as though I knew them. Please give the book a chance. If reading for fast romance is all you want, then perhaps this book is not for you. But if you enjoy a good story, complete with details on many different topics, I think you will enjoy.

They Came From Center Field.......2006-10-26
They Came From Center Field by Dan Gutman is about an evening by Crow's woods behind Tutum school where was a baseball field. There were four kids who were playing on a baseball team called the SBD. The SBD almost won every game they had played but this was one of the best teams. Luckily, the SBD were winning 2 to 0. In the ninth inning it was 2 to 1. The bases were loaded and the other team was up. There were two outs and full count. Right after the best batter struck out and the other team left then the left the field defeated, the SBD saw a light in center field. It was the alien's light on the ship.
When the aliens came and they got out of the ship, they challenged the SBD to a game of baseball. The SBD made a deal that if they won or if the aliens forfeited they got to go for a ride in the alien's ship. When they were playing, the SBD were winning badly and the aliens forfeited the game. Mack said that a deal is a deal.
The SBD got to go for a ride in the alien's ship. They were touching every thing they saw in the ship. I wonder if they will ever come back again?
Dan Gutman likes to write books about baseball and funny things. I like him because he seems like a "sportsy" and funny guy. He's the best author ever.
They Came From Center Field.......2006-02-07
I liked the book a lot and I recommend it to 4th or 5th graders. I think that anyone who likes mystery and some adventure should read it. I recommend this author to anyone between the ages between 8-12.
Heather's review.......2004-12-06
I loved this book, because it was easy to read book that is what I like to read. Also it was cool how they made the book about aliens and baseball. But I only like to read about baseball. Baseball is basically the only thing I like to read about because it is exciting. The only part I didn't like to read about was the aliens. I think I'm a little too old for that. They could have at least made the aliens sound more real than they did. But besides the aliens, it was a great book.
There was a baseball team called the SBDs that never lost a baseball game. But after one game they heard a huge crash in the woods. So they went to see what the crash was. Guess what it was- three spaceships, but these doors started to open it startled them when aliens came out. The aliens wanted to know how to play baseball. So the SBDs taught them except the aliens pitched eight hundred miles per hour. The aliens were so strong they hit the baseballs to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Have the SBDs finally meet their match? Is that all the aliens want? Read the book
I think the type of reader who would like this book is a reader who likes to read about baseball and aliens, because that's what the story's about. I love to read about baseball but not aliens. The only other suggestion is I think more boys would like this story than girls because of the topic.
Mark's Review .......2004-11-05
I would recommend this book to someone who loves baseball. This is a book that has a lot of action right from the start.
This book is about a smart baseball team with lots of courage. They're playing a baseball game with another town - no umps, no parents no one but the two teams playing some baseball. All the sudden there's a huge bang and flashing lights out past center field. Everyone ran except the SBD's (silent but deadly). The team was really brave. They marched out past center field. "There it is!" they shouted. "It's three flying saucers". Bloop one of the players went out to see them.
"We are friendly. Please don't hurt us" Bloop said. They came out. They looked like coke machines with a hole in the middle of them the size of a peanut butter jar.
"What do you want here" asked Bloop. The aliens said they came for baseball. The two teams made a deal that if they kids taught them how to play baseball, then they would play a game if the SBD's won then the team gets a ride in the aliens' space ship.
I liked this book because things started happening right away and I also like baseball.
Wierd, but pretty neat!.......2001-07-22
An experienced, very good baseball team made up of some kids finds themselves facing against a group of aliens! The kids think that winning will be no sweat, but boy are they wrong! This is the alien's first time playing baseball, but they sure are good! The kid's begin to think that there is no way they are going to win. By then, it is getting late and the aliens say they have to be getting home. Then the kids think up a very clever way of winning, but I'm not going to tell you how they won. Well, because they won, they win a ride in the alien's spaceship! This is an incredible, non-forgetable book! It is also very easy to read- I read it in about 40 minutes.

Book Description
Malice that cannot speak its name, cold-blooded but secret hostility, impotent desire, hidden rancor and spite--all cluster at the center of envy. Envy clouds thought, writes Joseph Epstein, clobbers generosity, precludes any hope of serenity, and ends in shriveling the heart. Of the seven
deadly sins, he concludes, only envy is no fun at all.
Writing in a conversational, erudite, self-deprecating style that wears its learning lightly, Epstein takes us on a stimulating tour of the many faces of envy. He considers what great thinkers--such as John Rawls, Schopenhauer, and Nietzsche--have written about envy; distinguishes between
envy, yearning, jealousy, resentment, and schadenfreude ("a hardy perennial in the weedy garden of sour emotions"); and catalogs the many things that are enviable, including wealth, beauty, power, talent, knowledge and wisdom, extraordinary good luck, and youth (or as the title of Epstein's chapter
on youth has it, "The Young, God Damn Them"). He looks at resentment in academia, where envy is mixed with snobbery, stirred by impotence, and played out against a background of cosmic injustice; and he offers a brilliant reading of Othello as a play more driven by Iago's envy than Othello's
jealousy. He reveals that envy has a strong touch of malice behind it--the envious want to destroy the happiness of others. He suggests that envy of the astonishing success of Jews in Germany and Austria may have lurked behind the virulent anti-Semitism of the Nazis.
As he proved in his best-selling Snobbery, Joseph Epstein has an unmatched ability to highlight our failings in a way that is thoughtful, provocative, and entertaining. If envy is no fun, Epstein's Envy is truly a joy to read.

A Great Subject .......2006-08-15
The joy of reading anything written by Mr. Epstein is that he reads all the obscure tomes and summarizes them appropriately in context for the readers. Along with a subtle sense of humor his works are wonderful to discern. Furthermore, his sarcasm is quite a marvel. His usage of swear words is as well fittingly placed. Therefore, not only a reader learns of the topic Mr. Epstein has researched on, the reader also discovers good handling of the English language. Envy is an old disease of humans. Nobody understands it. Nothing can be done to stop it for good. It creeps into everybody's heart and mind. He who says he is never envious in his whole life is lying through his teeth. Each chapter is interesting by itself where Mr. Epstein touches all angles of the so-called sin. It is a small book with a lot of constructive information; absolutely invigorating when a writer could produce examples from all walks of life and every single area of society. Mr. Epstein is a well read person, an above average researcher, and a skilful non-fiction author. I envy him. ;-)
A Touch of Schadenfreude.......2006-02-23
There are few things more satisfying to enviers than the demise or expense of their targets. If you can't have it, whatever it is, all the more better that they should suffer humiliation and misery; a trademark of envy, according to the author, known as "Schadenfreude". In this book, the author looks at envy in nearly all of its incarnations, ranging from envy of the youth, envy of beauty, envy of the Jews, and makes an unusual case in pointing out that societies designed to purge envy from the people instead create more envy within (a bit hard to follow for me, personally). He provides tips on "Spotting the Envious" people, and also helps better define "envy" from its related forms, such as resentment, ressentiment, and jealousy. He says while jealousy involves matters of the heart, envy involves matters of other's possessions; jealousy, despite popular thought, is not envy.
Of all the books I've read in the Seven Sins series so far, this has provided the easiest read. It's easy to follow, and the author makes his points with a humorous edge, and without delving too much into inner psychiatry or politics.
Let us all praise those we envy .......2005-07-17
Epstein is an artful and insightful essayist. His thoughts on ' envy' will I believe help most readers better understand the subject, and reflect more deeply upon their own relation to it.
He points out that ' envy' of all the vices has the least positive to be said about it. About this I am not so sure. Surely most of us are ashamed of envying especially when the other person or persons envied is someone close to us who we should want the good fortune of as much as our own. But envy is not necessarily the worst of sins. We after all often by envying express a certain kind of admiration , and recognition of the value others have which we would like to. Envy becomes truly evil only when it moves us to action to truly hurt another or deprive them of their good. And even then in many instances such ' action'( Think of various kinds of ' fair competition') is not necessarily sinful.
Epstein points out that we are jealous of what is our own, and envious of what is others.(which we ourselves do not have) Epstein writes a series of short essays some of which deal with qualities and characteristics of others that we envy, Shakespeare's ' this man's art and that man's scope'.
One central point on the whole subject of envy is how foolish we so often are in envying others when they have their own life and story, and fate. Often we envy someone who we believe to have a better fortune than our own only to learn that they have sufferings and troubles beyond those we imagined.
'Envy' is a seemingly inescapable element of our nature. And this little book may do an enviable job of helping us understand it a bit better.
And this said with the minor praise of one who might envy Mr.Epstein's talent and success which is considerable.
Keeping Score.......2004-09-23
I learned at an early age, probably on the playground, that equality is more an ideal than a fact of nature. Perhaps Jefferson should have written "Wouldn't it be nice if all men were created equal?" sounding like a colonial version of Brian Wilson.
Human behavior works more like this: If a person perceives another to be either above or below him, he can either raise himself up or bring the higher down to his level. The standards used to judge higher and lower vary. Epstein's book Snobbery, which could be a companion to Envy, examines the more superficial standards people use. In childhood pecking order might be based on physical strength. In adulthood money, power, beauty, talent, even the success of one's children become the measurements by which one keeps score with the neighbors. In this way much of human interaction resembles combat or at least unfriendly competition.
An English professor at Northwestern, Epstein explores the matter by drawing on history's metaphysicians (Aristotle, Freud, Schopenhauer, Melville), consulting, in the words of Matthew Arnold, the best that has been known and thought in the world, along with his own experience and observation. In composing an extended essay in definition, he distinguishes envy from its scheming brothers, jealousy and resentment, and reveals the variety of instances in which envy peeks its head over the hedges: anti-Americanism, anti-Semitism, Marxism, youth, beauty, prizes. To Epstein's slim but thorough book I would add only the Latin root, invidere, meaning to look at askance or with malice. Envy encourages partial blindness because when we envy we reduce our view to one part of a life, the Olympic athlete's skill for example, while neglecting the sacrifices and roads not taken.
The persistence and ubiquity of envy suggest it is a permanent aspect of human nature, not something we can white-out from the genetic code. As far as I can tell there is no cure. But a book like this makes us more self-conscious, creating the opportunity for greater self-knowledge and offering a vocabulary for what was previously felt but unnamed.
Perfect Case Study.......2004-02-09
Try the following experiment. Read this book; then go read Robert Frank's Luxury Fever. What you get is a comparison between a literary intellectual (Epstein) , hollow, babbling, using sentences and quoting, say, Kant, and a thinker (Frank) who goes into the neurotransmitters of pecking order. (even then there have been plenty of new research on envy , see Zizzo, Clark,etc.)How can you write a book on envy without being connected with the sciences of Human Nature? Pecking order is something that has a long biological & evolutionary dimension.It is at the cornerstone of the Heuristics & biases tradition of Kahneman & Tversky and their peers.
This book is valuable as an experiment: the literary intellectual is no longer equipped in handling matters of significance.
I am sorry to be cruel but I like to deal with Truth not ornaments.

Customer Reviews:
Eclipses the original!.......2005-12-30
Let me say how happy I am to be the first to review ENVY (I do so love being number 1)! Now let's get down to it.
Robin Wasserman's Envy had some sizeable shoes to fill after the release of Lust in Mid September and many (including yours truly) did not expect this book to surpass it's predecessor. But, in fact, it does. Envy is by far better than Lust in that there is just as much action and even better exploration of who the characters are and how they came to be who they are.
One basic flaw of Lust was that Miranda and Adam were immediately introduced as dear friends of Alpha Girl Harper, but then there was little interaction between the characters and Harper. There was little evidence supporting many of Wasserman's claims (such as Miranda being snarky, Adam and Harper being best friends, Harper being witchy and selfish) but in this book, Wasserman raises the bar by taking the focus off of sex (shocking for a teen book of this day and age) and creates a more personal analysis of personality and background, the former more so than the latter.
Kane and Kaia, for example, were portrayed in Lust as the troublemakers. The manipulative, heartless schemers who just took what they wanted and to heck with everyone else. In the latest installment of the series, there are rare moments where Kaia recalls her childhood (being passed around like luggage by two uncaring parents) and readers glimpse Kane's conscience. Wasserman makes these moments memorable without overdoing it. She doesn't try to go too far too fast in "redeeming" these characters. She just makes them understood, if not immensely liked. Also notable are the interactions between Harper and Kaia and Harper and Adam. The Harper/Adam relationship becomes believable and natural and the moments between Kaia and Harper, two virtual enemies are pure fun. Kaia and Harper's scenes light up the page with their snide remarks and witty banter. They are so much alike, and it was hilarious to see them bond and become partners in crime. The author does a fabulous job of illustrating that while they are enemies, Harper and Kaia are the real soulmates in this book.
By far the best part of Envy is the action packed last chapters. Unlike Lust, the book had a huge payoff and all the plotting and schemeing came to a head. Very few will be disappointed by the conclusion.
However, as delightful as this book was, there were a few drawbacks. First off, Harper became a complete witch as she abandoned Miranda in her time of need and gave up her old loyalties to chase blindly after Adam. While Harper is so well-developed a character that readers will certainly forgive her, it is disappointing to watch her downard spiral into witchiness. Miranda also spiraled down into a whiny, whimpering brat that should be smacked in the face and forced to take responsibility for her own life. There were also too many Beth scenes (the series is written in third person, but the book is separated into segments told from the point of view of different characters) and she became a stereotype, a whimpy excuse for a character who could not stand up for herself and needed a man's support. She should take a few pointers from Kaia; enough is enough already. Beth is by far the most annoying character in the book and her selfish nature and constant ridicule of her boyfriend Adam makes it impossible to sympathize with her (and easy to root for Harper).
Best parts of the book: Kane segments, Kaia and Harper's weird relationship, Kane and Harper's reference to The Incident, Harper and Adam.
Worst parts of the book: Miranda not standing up for herself, Beth, Beth, Beth, and Beth.
Is this series worhwhile? Absolutely. Seven Deadly Sins exceeds expectations and is destined to become a favorite among teen readers. These books are incredibly addictive, and a tad bit mature. Viewer discretion advised, but otherwise, enjoy!
