4 comments about Cuba: Grace Under Pressure.

1. Cuba Grace Under Pressure is an astoundingly beautiful book crafted by people of incredible insight and warmth. It is a work of love in so many different dimensions - touching everyone who is fortunate enough to discover it, in profound and diverse ways. Those who don't know Cuba actually experience both the people and the country viscerally; so powerful are the images and the anecdotes. Those who do know Cuba will marvel at the extent to which this book deepens, enriches and informs their personal experience. Cuba Grace Under Pressure is a book to be displayed and shared with friends but it is not a "coffee table" book - it is a work of art, substance, compassion and love.



2. Open this beautiful book and you will be drawn into a world of powerful images and elegant prose. Photographer Malcolm Batty has captured the lives of his subjects to make a statement so evocative that I spent several minutes with each image. This, complimented by the wonderful story telling of author Rosemary Sullivan, creates a book in which you will lose yourself again and again. Whether you are interested in photography, Cuba, the lives of artists, or simply, as I am, the human condition, you must buy this book. Warm, intimate, intuitive, evocative.



3. A bull hangs suspended in mid-leap. Children defy gravity. Photographer Malcolm Batty stops time for us in this extraordinary collection of images of a country that, for better or worse, has also tried to stop time. The resultant photographs have a timeless, archtypal power. Award winning writer Rosemary Sullivan contributes an equally elegant text.

2 comments about Carcajou.

1. I first read this book in Junior High school in Minnesota. I really enjoyed the story and found myself cheering for the Wolverine who was the main character. The title "carcajou" is the Indian word for the wolverine meaning "Devil". This clever and most powerful animal on the planet (based on his size) captivated my mind completely.

   For the last forty plus years since reading this outstanding book the wolverine has been my "animal of choice". I checked the book out at the school library several times while I was there.

   For the past few years I have tried to purchase this outstanding book on-line for my kids to read but was disapointed to discover that it is no longer in print. Now (tonight) I found out that there is going to be another printing that will be out in December of 2000. I can hardly wait to see my children reading this book.

   If you can remember Disney before cable TV and the wonderful shows they had that followed an animal from birth throughout it's life, then you have an inkling of how this book is written. I recommend this book for any child over the age of ten. Parents will love to read this book to their children - I can envision several nights of complete attention from kids as their parents unfold this charming story at bedtime.




2. I read this book repeatedly since my 4th grade. I learned much from the carcajou: although he looked clumsy he had a great stamina in walking and he was afraid of noone. Later on I also paid more attention to other characters in the story: two Native American trappers, two white traders and of course many other animals who all consider carcajou the boss.
   This book is easy to read and you will read it at once, but will return repeatedly. This is not a fable, animals act like real animals and people act like real people. But you will see that nature, as it is, has many tricks in its sleeve.
