ok.......2006-12-03

This book does have accurate information, but it is very general. Suitable for a rank beginner; others should look elsewhere. Another much better inexpensive book is Barron's book on livebearers.

Book Description

A "skillful, delightful" first novel set in working class New Orleans. When Albert Fitzmorris, who works in a French Quarter fish market, unexpectedly becomes an unmarried father, he finds himself bridling against the strict expectations of the tight, Irish Catholic community in which he was raised. Struggling with fatherhood, Albert further complicates his life when he embarks upon a doomed romantic adventure with an unattainable woman. In the end, Albert must learn to live a life beyond accommodation and his own half-truths in order to find the love he seeks.

Customer Reviews:

Simple, but beautifully rendered.......2006-02-23

This is a touching story of a simple guy who thinks of himself as a loser but has much more going on than is first apparent. The characters in this book are ordinary working people but their bonds and dreams are respectfully and touchingly rendered. The writing is spare but it communicates depth and complexity.
Enjoy this book. It may surprise you.

Sixteen Pinteens for Albert.......2005-08-23

We're talking pinteens...and NOT the schmall ones...Albert's inspiration, The Longfellow, would agree. Slainte Duine, man!

Interesting psychological novel.......2001-10-04

Albert Fitzmorris is part of present-day working class New Orleans. He works at a fish market in the French Quarter, a position he inherited from his now deceased father. On one side Albert faces a tightly knit Irish Catholic community, and the strict expectations that go along with it. On the other side is Albert's own preoccupation with unrequited love. Struggling with a self-image that is slowly falling apart, Albert puts his relationship with his community, his family and his daughter all at risk.

Albert is trying to live despite the shadow of the memory of his father. Fitting into his father's clothes too easily, or playing poker with his father's friends don't make it any easier. Things are made worse by the feeling that his role is diminishing in the life of Eileen, the mother of his daughter (the two aren't married), and in the life of Audrey, his daughter.
Pulling himself away more and more from friends and family, Albert finds himself in a doomed romantic fantasy. If only he could win the heart of the beautiful and unobtainable Chelsea (who works at a local hotel restaurant) his whole life would take a turn for the better. The biggest problem is that Chelsea makes it clear that she is only interested in a casual friendship.

Book Description

In The Doctor in Spite of Himself, Moliere's scalpel-sharp satire of the medical profession, Sganarelle's wife spreads the word the he is secretly a brilliant doctor who won't reveal his skills unless he is unmercifully punished. The Bourgeois Gentleman, Moliere's classic treatment of snobbery, presents Monsieur Jordain's obsessive desire to move up out of the ranks of the middle class and associate with the gentry.

Customer Reviews:

clear and modern translations of great plays.......2005-03-16

Bermel's translations are funny and sharp and a little bawdier than most, but they will appeal more to modern audiences reared on Mtv and reality shows. The Doctor is especially sharp and would make an excellent piece for college theatre groups. Both bring forth Moliere's satire beautifully.

A Bad Translation?.......2002-12-11

These are two comdedies that fail in a modern sense: a woodcutter as a doctor
and a middle class fellow who wants "Culture". Coming from California
I have felt the sting of New York/ east coast snobbery and
wanted to be able to reply.So the Bourgeois Gentleman
isn't funny to me: it is cruel.The Army made a medic of me
despite of my religious history, so I sympathize with the poor woodcutter.
Had the translation been better the plays might have survived them,
but it fails the humor of the plays and they fall flat.
