- Abstract
- en_US This paperbound 8½ x 11 volume contains twenty-four items after a Prefable. The accent here is on meditation. From my reading of the first half of the book, the stories seem to be in the vein of Tony DiMello's work. They are at their best when they end in a conundrum or joke, like Ramaguna and the Yogi--especially in its optional epilogue--and A Fable of Progress. This book is representative of the sixties and seventies in California! On the one hand, there is the mysticism of Test-Flight, which seems dated as I read it now. On the other, there is the sadness and realism of The Fable of Lessening Need, in which two people love each other and marry but find other things and separate. Each story has a different color paper, and full-page images of St. Michael and Shiva open and close the volume.
