Book Description
Mid-December 2008, this venerable incarnation of Hanuman came into my life and created an intense need to get a nāma, which was providentially fulfilled by the Master Sri Ramakrishna mid-March 2010 His discourses, just a page a day, have been a daily inspiration since then so much so that we created a website for Him with focus on the discourses in five languages [English, Gujarati, Kannada, the original Marathi, and Telugu]

Book Description
I spent my childhood off Ramakrishna Beach in Vizag. Now there's a Kali Temple on it The Master entered my life through The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna, which i got at the Mylapore Math in Chennai the evening of Pi Day (March 14), 1992. Thought that the date/time was fitting: 3.14 (.1992.6:54), echoing the most famous transcendental number In the Gospel, found that there was no limit to the love of the Master. His cheerfulness, His humor, and His harmony (any day better than tolerance) drew Him to me in no uncertain manner. After 30 years, the Gospel is as fresh as ever; i try to read to it daily The life of the Master has been well documented and will not be the subject of this blook, which is an intersection of material on the Master and how He affected me through dreams, experiences, and ideas, in more or less a chronological order

Book Description
[Steinbecks Typewriter: Essays on His Art] collects several of DeMotts finest essays on Steinbeck... [that are] so carefully revised as to warn other critics seeking their own collected essay volume of the difference between a genuinely lapidary compilation and a kitchen midden. Illustrated with some rare photos, this collection is especially notable... John Ditsky, Choice ...Steinbecks Typewriter... stands as the most in-depth treatment of Steinbecks aesthetics, particularly in its exploration of the authors interior spaces and creative habits, elements of Steinbecks artistry which have not only been underestimated but woefully ignored.

Book Description
A loving look at “disposable” horror culture from the 1960s and 1970s. Over two glorious decades the horror film waged war on good taste, exploiting every taboo and bursting every envelope along the way. TRASHFIEND is the definitive guide to the chaotic, creative and endlessly entertaining golden age of horror cinema. Scott Stine (author of The Gorehound’s Guide to Splatter Films series) shines a fond but satiric light on everything from low budget horror films to grisly comic art, lurid movie magazines to late-night creature features, campy monster toys to exploitive poster art. Packed with reviews, trivia, interviews, anecdotes and rare illustrations, and written with witty and insightful flair, TRASHFIEND will fascinate aficianados, nostalgists and cinema lovers of every stripe for a fun, energetic and critical look at this beloved genre.
