A work in three parts, Things Written starts with aphorisms in "How Not to Be a Ruminant", shifts to essays in "Weights and Counterweights", and concludes with poetry in "By the Metre". Some arguments appear in more than one section, and include nationalism, class, free will, religion, literature and the arts, but the theme of human relationships runs through the entire book, and is most closely examined with reference to the ideas of Martin Buber in a long essay entitled "Cats and Dogs, and Other Things We Cannot Understand". The back cover carries the following: "WARNING: This is a non-genre product and end-users may encounter forms and ideas to which they are allergic. Vagabond Voices Publishing Ltd, its board of directors, shareholders, parent company and/or subsidiaries advise end-users that they read this book entirely at their own risk.". The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

About this title

Synopsis

A work in three parts, which starts with aphorisms in "How Not to Be a Ruminant," shifts to essays in "Weights and Counterweights," and concludes with poetry in "By the Metre." Some arguments appear in more than one section, and include nationalism, class, free will, religion, literature, and the arts, but the theme of human relationships runs through the entire book.

About the Author

Allan Cameron, who has lived in Nigeria, Bangladesh and Italy, and worked in various fields, now lives on Glasgow, where he writes, translates and runs his own publishing company Vagabond Voices, which is principally concerned with the translation and publication of European novels in English. His novels, The Golden Menagerie (a modern version of Apuleius's Golden Ass) and The Berlusconi Bonus (a political satire directed against the Neo-Cons and the ideas of Francis Fukuyama), were both published by Luath Press.

Store Description

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we?re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.
