Book
Hardcover. Condition: Good. The Illustrated Koka Shastra explores all matters sexual, from setting the mood to explicit instruction on technique. In this edition, Comfort's translation is supplemented with explanatory notes and commentary. Explicit images drawn from a collection of ancient Indian paintings and sculptures - many never before published - complement and augment the classic text. This collection of instruction for intimate relations includes the complete text of the Koka Shastra and Ratimanjari, along with other significant medieval Indian writings on love such as the Ananga Ranga (the Stage of Love-God) and the Panchasaiyaka (the Five Arrows). This celebration of sex and sexuality is an invitation to explore a state of mind that accepts physical intimacy as a positive good and its elaboration as a natural part of life.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. Product DescriptionTraces the life of the short story writer, describing his early years, his prison sentence, his writing success, and his untimely deathFrom Publishers WeeklyNew York short story master O. Henry (1862-1910) spent much of his life tormented by shame over the three years he'd spent in prison for embezzlement in his mid-30s. Because of his paranoid obsession with concealing this secret, the fruits of his literary success were squandered on debauchery and blackmail, according to Stuart ( Alan Watts ). Such a life may well be worthy of serious study, but nothing very serious emerges here. Stuart's prose is pretentious--a drunken O. Henry is described as one who "tasted too often the grape"--but the book's defects are not limited to pomposity. For instance, there is smug contempt for readers offended by O. Henry's racism: " Autres temps, autres moeurs ," Stuart writes, "and if the reader doesn't know what that means, then he ought to find another author." Photos not seen by PW.Copyright 1990 Reed Business Information, Inc.From Library JournalIn 1898 bank teller Will Porter was found guilty of embezzlement and sentenced to prison. Out of that experience emerged O. Henry. Although the best known short story writer of his day, he lived in the shadows, avoiding publicity for "fear of exposure as a jailbird." Stuart gives a sympathetic and well-reserached view of a life at once gloomy and filled with wit and generosity. He attempts no literary criticismfor that, the reader might try Eugene Current-Garcia's O. Henry (1965)but he differs from others in his thesis that O. Henry was innocent of the crime that sent him to prison. Because O. Henry's stories, though dated, retain great popularity, this biography can be recommended for academic and public libraries.
