At the time of its publication, Hebrew had only recently been revived as a spoken language. Set in early nineteenth-century Galicia,the plot is part quest, part comedy of errors,progressively departing from its opening tone of realism. The narrative is decisively double-edged: naïve, in the manner of classic folk tales, as well as sophisticated and artful, as a modern work. The Bridal Canopy parodies the Hassidic folk tale, but does so very delicately;

" "He told me I was his "North Country Girl," the one from the Dylan song who was a true love, the one he would know before fame and wealth came." It was the seventies, the Homestead High School in Cupertino, California, was the motherboard to a vibrant mix of young people who sought to explore their creativity amidst the bright new values of the day. Chrisannn Brennan was there. A gifted art student, she found herself drawn to a complex seventeen-year-old, a study in contrasts who, like many, was searching for his own enlightenment. That young man was Steve Jobs. When Brennan met Jobs, both were passionately aware that new kinds of revelations were within reach. It was an exhilarating journey for these two creative people, and they fell deeply in love. This is their story. The Bite in the Apple is an honest and perceptive look at Steve Jobs' ascent, told from the unique perspective of his first girlfriend, lover, friend, co-parent, and - like many others - the object of his cruelty. This is a story told from the margins, beyond the spotlights of convention and power. It brings remarkable insight into the life of Jobs, especially the early, formative years, about which very little is known. Writing with depth and breadth, Brennan reveals an idealistic young man who was driven to find himself and change the world, a young father who denied his own child, and a man who mistook power for love. Chrisann Brennan's intimate memoir provides a human dimension to the Jobs myth. Finally, a book that reveals a more real Steve Jobs." - from the inner front jacket flap.

The upper section of the same page includes the author's name and address stamp. Also includes a photocopy of The New York Times Book Review article review of the book by Michael Kazin, dated December 22, 1996, entitled Quitting Time: The history of a corporate experiment that worked - and died anyway". Signed and inscribed by the author with black pen on the half title page. "On December 1, 1930, at the start of the Great Depression, W.K. Kelogg replace the traditional three daily eight-hour shifts in his cereal plant with four six-hour shifts. By adding on a new shift, he and his managers created jobs for many unemployed workers in Battle Creek, Michigan, including employees that the company had previously laid off. Kellogg's six-hour day was the pinnacle of a hundred-year process that cut working time virtually in half, Kellogg's management, propelled by a vision of "Liberation Capitalism," insisted that six-hours wold revolutionize society by shifting the balance of time from work to leisure - from economic concerens to the challenge of freedom. Kellogg's employees, like centuries of workers before them, believed that work was a menas to an end. An overwhelming number of employees were willing to "share their work" and invest the extra time in family, community, church, and individual freedom. When World War II ended, Kellogg's managers abandoned the six-hour shift and joined the rest of the nation in defining progress as more work for more people. Losing sight of the original dram of providing more time to live outside necessity, management argued that work should remain the center of life, imparting identity, meaning, and purpose to an otherwise meaningless existence. Hunnicutt documents the struggle of those workers, mostly women, who resisted management and the new beliefs about work's centrality. They fought to keep their six-hour shifts until 1985, and in the process preserved the century-old vision of "progressive shortening of the hours of labor." Their story is a monument to workers' struggle to gain control over their lives and to obtain substantial freedom beyond necessity. This remarkable vision of progress offers hope and guidance in the face of layoffs, downsizing, mandatory overtime, and a "jobless future," which plague our nation." - from the rear outer cover. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Benjamin Kline Hunnicutt is Professor of Leisure Studies at the University of Iowa. He is also the author of Work Without End: Abandoning SHorter Hours for the Right to Work.
