365 pages. A public health inspector spends twenty-five frustrating years trying to be of service to his community (Victoria, British Columbia). At fifty he resigns and goes in search of a more satisfying life. He finds it in tropical Northern Queensland. This is his story. It is a novel and an anthology. Essays, verses, short fiction, travel, observations, character sketches. It is the compellingly written, informative, enlightening, thought-provoking, always entertaining experience of a man with intelligence, wit, and humour. The reader will find that she/he is seeing himself and his own community, because this book is not just about a small Canadian city or one corner of the sunny South Pacific. Nor is it just about one man's escape from a frustrating job. It is a forthright assessment of a society in trouble by a man who has a wider view because he deliberately stepped outside.

196429183<p>A Near Fine copy in a Fine extremely bright unclipped dust jacket. In this essay collection Ralph Ellison examines his antecedents and in so doing illuminates the literature music and culture of both black and white America. His range is virtuosic encompassing Mark Twain and Richard Wright Mahalia Jackson and Charlie Parker The Birth of a Nation and the Dante-esque landscape of Harlem—"the scene and symbol of the Negro's perpetual alienation in the land of his birth." Throughout he gives us what amounts to an episodic autobiography that traces his formation as a writer as well as the genesis of Invisible Man.Not only is Ellison a great writer of fiction but he truly excels as an essayist as he displays in this fine collection of some of his best work in a non-fiction role. He is one of the most cogent and articulate writers in the arena of ideas and assessments of culture and the arts.</p> Random House, hardcover
