Got my non-reader to read
My 9 year-old son brought this book home from the library yesterday and was actually excited about reading, for the first time, ever. He read some of the poems to me and I found them to be really clever. We both got a chuckle out of what really happened to the dinosaurs.

Ancient Egyptian Literature: An Anthology

3 reviews

University of Texas Press, 2001

Fabulous literature from a not-so-distant time
This is a wonderful collection of stories and poems from ancient Egypt, translated of course. Someone once said "Poetry is that which is lost in translation," but that does not hold true for this book. Most of its stories are in poetic form, and they are all as fascinating and engaging as any non-translated work might be. Some of the best works in the book are its love poems, which range from ...

Marx as ecologist
In "Marx's Ecology," John Bellamy Foster defies conventional green thinking by raising the banner of materialism rather than spirituality in the fight to save the planet and humanity from ecological ruin.

John Bellamy Foster

Monthly Review Press, 1999
