Book Description

Anyone who's ever ventured into the subway system of Tokyo knows it's like being lost in a maze. The overwhelming sense of hopelessness-which direction to go, which lines to take, where to buy the tickets, etc.-can thoroughly annoy and throw one off, especially someone who can't speak or read Japanese.
Help is at hand with the publication of this tremendous little guidebook. It is a wonderful booster for those who need to make sense of the confusing and multifaceted Tokyo subway system.

Customer Reviews:

Definitely Not as Good a TOKYO CITY ATLAS.......2006-05-14

See my review for TOKYO CITY ATLAS. It is much better than this albeit newer guide. The signage in Tokyo is still a mix of the "old" and the "new" system and TCA has better station area maps.

Using the Tokyo Subways.......2005-08-18

This new (2005) book from Tuttle is not to be confused with the same author's "Tokyo Subway Guide" (2002) published by Kodansha. In one aspect, the newer book has the advantage of including the newly designated codes for each subway stop (a letter and number combination that uniquely identifies each station on each line). However, the older volume is more useful to this reader than the newer one because it includes area maps of 50 major stations, each showing interconnections between lines, numbered exists, and major buildings. The `area profiles' in the newer volume are limited to 13 in number (thus omitting Ikebukuro, Jimbocho, Shimbashi, Ueno, and others). While each area profile includes some text describing noted features in the areas of interest, they are far less detailed than the older maps. Of the newer volume's 160 pages, 100 are given over to category listings (`acupuncture clinics' to `zoo') that could allow the newer volume to double as a guidebook, though the listings are not annotated and, thus, will have utility primarily to those already familiar with the city and who know what sights, stores, or services they are seeking.

ACHIEVES ITS AIM - INTRODUCTION.......2006-02-12

This book achieves what it sets out to do: provide a simple introduction to the topic of real estate fixer-uppers and give the beginner a guidemap of a first deal.

It walks the potential investor through the main steps, from finding and choosing a house, to inspecting it, to purchasing it, to doing the basic fixes, to putting it in the market for sale. Being a "Complete Idiots Guide", one knows what to expect, and this book does exactly what it sets out to do. It is particularly useful in giving small tips that would likely only be known by someone with much experience that has fallen into many traps.

Activity Parenting Today for Jewish Families, LEADER'S GUIDE (for use with the Active Parenting Today program, for parents fo 2-to 12-year-olds)

Book Description

"A Quest Among the Bewildered" is Wulf Zendik's first full-length work, written at the artistic height of the Beat Generation. More than 40 years later, this tough, witty, semi-autobiographical take on the madness surging through the veins of modern day culture still hits home like a hammer blow—detailing one man's search for Love and integrity in a sea of lies, loneliness and deceit. Written in riveting free-form prose, this is Art on the edge, a live-wire ride into the psyche of a deeply human, deeply humane genius.

Customer Reviews:

Honest, Powerful and True.......2003-08-05

I agree that this is the best thing I've yet read by a Beat Author - I'd love to have been at those places, met those people and witnessed the scenes described by Zendik. The writing style is so moving and poetic. His revelations and observations about love, romance, sex, the women he was with and the artists he knew are a missing piece of true history about that time and place. Just going through those experiences would change anyone, but the courage to go forward in pursuit of those ideals, that's what gives me courage in my life to believe in my own possibilities. And the possibilities for humanity.

Definitely the most honest powerful book I've ever read, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to "think outside the box". Zendik writes with a great hunger to express, but precisely, and with generous wit - always with the willingness to turn the penetrating look on himself. I found myself identifying with the feelings and attitudes described, and more than a few times it struck me how absolutely true it is that everybody has these types of thoughts and feelings...

If you're a fan of Henry Miller, J.D. Salinger, Hunter Thompson or Kurt Vonnegut - I recommend this book to you... this is a fierce piece of work...

Dennis Holcombe - Asheville, NC

AMAZING.......2003-07-21

This book is amazing......thats all i have to say....he (Wulf Zendik) actually created a commune that lives on TODAY as the embodiement of his ideals in this book......just browse for "Zendik Farm" and you will find it......The work that they have done has had a HUGE influence on me.....and not in a bad way but making me a better more world consious and compassionate person......if you want truth read this....

"The Line Between Living and Meditating".......2003-07-21

Reviewer: A. Boggess from Adirondack Review, NY When a publisher I had never heard of queried me about a posthumously-published novel by an "undiscovered Beat," I was skeptical at first, but also curious. The Beats to me are like a secret lover to the more literary wife I cling to most of the time. I pick up 'Naked Lunch' or 'The Dharma Bums' whenever I want a break from the highbrow fiction I am accustomed to reading. Needless to say, the thought of something new in the Beat vein intrigued me. As I said, though, I was hesitant. After all, any Beat writer worth publishing would have been "discovered" 50 years ago at the height of the movement. Right? Well, apparently not. Wulf Zendik easily fits in with the likes of Burroughs, Kerouac, Ferlinghetti and the rest. His writing is equal parts Bukowski and Buddha, as much Ginsburg as Gao Xingjian.
In 'A Quest Among the Bewildered', described as an "early semi autobiographical novel," Zendik straddles the traditional Beat line between living and meditating. He touches on all the familiar themes: love, lust, homosexuality, intoxication, spirituality, the subculture, and the quest for enlightenment as found in experiencing all the rest and moving beyond. His language rages and burns, then mellows, slows, lulls the reader into a feeling of safety before lunging with a sharp blade:

...Zendik writes with the enthusiasm of a young seeker, while topping off his prose with the insights of a learned master. While all the Beat basics are here: the energy of Kerouac, the poetics of Ginsburg, the over-the-top edginess of Burroughs, Zendik's work often resembles something more eloquent and grand. It often reminded me of Rilke's novel 'The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge' in the way the narrator stops to contemplate the simplest things while keeping what can loosely be called a story hidden far in the background.
'A Quest Among the Bewildered' is the kind of novel one hesitates to enter, but rejoices in having left after its unexpected soul-searching, its journey to places of self and society, its magnificent dreamscape of language and idea. How Zendik remained an "undiscovered Beat" seems as much a curiosity as his work. This book makes a case for his being included among the more noted writers of his generation. At times harsh, at times dazzling, Zendik's prose touches every nerve and reaches every secret desire. It hooks the reader and refuses to let go, not in the way a Stephen King novel might, more in the way carnival rides and conversations do.
Recommendation: BUY THIS ONE. While it might be the last book on your shelf, it will not be last in your thoughts. The words and insights will stay with you for days until you feel the urge to pick it up again, go back for a second helping of life at its most raw, its most fascinating. Expect a truly wonderful reading experience.

Essential Beckett resource.......1999-03-15

My only coffee table book of literary criticism, this is an invaluable resource for information and insights into Irish author Samuel beckett, particualry for the early Joyce influenced poems and novels(More Pricks than Kicks, Murphy), but also for interesting glosses on the more obscured prose from the trilogy on to Company. Filled with pictures of the bogs, seasides, asylumns and Dublin streets that set the scene for most of the prose & drama. By paying close attention to the texts, O'brien makes a silent but convincing argument in favor of Beckett the realist, if condensed and reduced to suit his artistic purposes. Filled with cultural detail instead of biographical detail, it is also an interesting look at Dublin before the war. It also contains a printing of "The Capital of Ruins", the short essay Beckett wrote for radio about his experience in St Lo, France, as a memeber of the Irish Red Cross. A quote to show a possible significance:"I mean the possibility that some of those who were in Saint-Lo will come home realising that they got as good as they gave, that they got, indeed, what they could not hardly give, a vision and a sense of a time-honored conception of humanity in ruins, and perhaps even an inkling of the terms in which our condition is to be thought again". A beautiful, well-researched, and thought-provoking study.
