The Poems of Stanley Kunitz, 1928-1978
Published in Paperback by Little Brown & Co (Pap) (July, 1979)
Author: Stanley Jasspon Kunitz
Average review score:

why is this book out of print?
Other books by Kunitz are occasionally available, but there are some poems - like "The Science of the Night" - that there is no other way to get. Kunitz has a luminous voice and writes some very good poetry. If you ever see this in a second-hand bookshop, you should snap it up.

The Portable Oscar Wilde
Published in Paperback by Viking Press (July, 1981)
Authors: Oscar Wilde, Stanley Weintraub, and Richard Aldington
Average review score:

De Profundis, Dorian Gray and more ...
This edition of Oscar Wilde's work - in addition to its inclusion of much personal correspondence - is a fascinating look at the author and, notably, his personal travails.

The novel, of course, and the plays are classics, but I found the letters to be a juicy narrative all their own. The twists and turns of his doomed affair with Lord Alfred Douglas, affectionately called "Bosie" in touching - and bitter - love notes from prison, are here to peruse. Reading them, you get a sense of Wilde's personal feelings at the time of his famed trial and arrest for sodomy, his anguish at losing Bosie and going to jail. It's fascinating, juicy stuff - made all the more touching by the fact that it all occurred without shame, in plain view, over 100 years ago.

Wilde's a great character, a great author, a good role model for gay life and a hysterical wit. And this book is a must.

Post-Work: The Wages of Cybernation

Authors: Stanley Aronowitz and Jonathan Cutler
Average review score:

Right on target... WORK, The Challenge of the CyberAge!
This is a collection of thoughtful essays on the future of work in the age of the Internet. It covers such topics as: the shorter hours movement; guaranteed income proposals; and the impact of computers in the white collar workplace. One of the central issues of the 21st Century, as yet little recognized or discussed, will be employment and, in particular, meaningful work in the Cyberspace Age. If this is so, this book is right on target. Reviewed by Gerry Stern, founding partner, Stern & Associates and HRconsultant.com.

Praying the Psalms: A Commentary
Published in Paperback by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co. (January, 2001)
Author: Stanley L. Jaki
Average review score:

I love it!
This book starts with a general introduction to the Psalms, then goes on to provide a page or two of commentary for each individual Psalm. It would be a great help in praying your way through the whole book of Psalms as a daily devotion, because each commentary balances scholarly information with the author's personal insights, comments, and stories. I recommend it to anyone wanting to come closer to God through the Psalms.
