    Extractions: -William Blake There comes a moment in the very best works of film noir and existentialism when the reader/viewer too surrenders to the internal logic of inexorable fate, stops thinking of the protagonist as a passive idiot, and starts rooting for him to see the situation through to its inevitable ugly end with some style. Forget the underlying philosophy of man's helplessness, there's just something viscerally thrilling about watching someone go down in flames. But then, on reflection, you come back to the same old objections, chief among them : that man is not doomed; that free will exists; and that individuals determine their own fates. Paul Auster manages here to provide a compulsively readable thriller, wherein we experience that moment where surrender makes sense, and then to pull back from that brink and restore some measure of free will. Along the way he hurls around enough allusions, references and parallels to keep a battalion of academics scribbling away for years as to what it all means. I'm afraid to even hazard a guesslet me just say that I was especially struck by the Biblical and

    Extractions: From Mark Helprin, acclaimed author of A SOLDIER OF THE GREAT WAR and A WINTER'S TALE, comes a miraculous song of the twentieth century. In a mountain garden in Brazil, an old American is writing his memoirs, placing the pages carefully in his antproof case. As he reminisces we learn he was a World War II ace who was shot down twice, an investment banker who met with popes and presidents, a multimillionaire, a man who was never not in love. He spent his adolescence in an insane asylum in Switzerland; he was the thief of the century, a murderer, and a protector of the innocent. And all his life, he waged a valiant, losing, one-man battle against the world's most insidious enslaver: coffee. Mark Helprin is the author of A Dove of the East and Other Stories,Refiner's Fire,. Ellis Island and Other Stories,Winter's Tale and Memoir from Antproof Case.

    Extractions: A conservative commentator who has served in the Israeli army may not seem the likeliest source of whimsy, but Mark Helprin's tales are written from the soul of a poet. Soldiers and burglars figure prominently in his work, but the stories are not tales of intrigue; they focus more on love, morality and far-flung travels.

    Extractions: Last updated summer, 1997 Mark Helprin will not appreciate my inclusion of his writing in the Fantasy category. Truthfully, some of his novels are not fantasy at all while others skirt the borders of fantasy. Still, Helprin has a fine appreciation for fantastic and I can see the similarities between his work and the work of Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Of all the serious modern novelists, Helprin is the only one that I find interesting. Helprin has only one character, it is the young man, about 22 in the full power of his body and ardor. There is one woman for the hero, a lovely creatures who can be won suddenly and forever with passion. As every novel needs a plot, something terrible occurs and our hero must spend the remainder of the novel recovering or repairing the damage. I'm not sure if Helprin has anywhere new to go, but at least two of his novels rank as some of the best literature of the last 20 years. Winter's Tale (1985?) has two spectacular beginnings, set 70 years apart, a workable middle, and an ending that doesn't quite come off. Still, the first half of the book is so wonderful I still rank it as one of my favorite books. The first beginning is about Peter Lake, a young man living in New York around 1900. Peter Lake is part of a criminal gang called the Short Tails but he betrays them to save his family and is only able to escape with the aid of magical white horse. He then meets and falls in love with the beautiful but consumptive daughter of a newspaper owner. Some time later, Peter Lake is mysteriously transported (by his horse) some 70 years into the future. That is the end of the first beginning.

    Extractions: Review of Mark Helprin's "Ellis Island and other stories" Brilliant, lovely stories; go out and get this book at once. Still here? OK. "Winter's Tale" was my first Mark Helprin book. I thought it was the perfect novel, glorious and mysterious, realistic and magical, funny and strange and wondrous and sad. If anything, it was too much of a good thing; like spending all day at the carnival. The stories in "Ellis Island and other stories" are the same entrancing medicine, but in smaller doses. Don't let the big "Ellis Island" on the cover, and the grainy black-and-white picture of a ship approaching the Statue of Liberty, scare you off; this is not mundane history, or even historical fiction. The stories are not all about immigrants, or Europe, or the War, although those threads do run through some of them. The title story is the longest, placed last in the book, and it is about the Ellis Island, and the I can do nothing like justice to the rest of the stories in the amount of time I can plausibly extract from you. Some vague ideas: in "The Schreuderspitze", a photographer deals with tragedy in the luminous Alps; in "Letters from the Samantha ", strange events on an iron-hulled sailing ship in 1879 involve questions of humanity and guilt; in "Martin Bayer" a small boy is a small boy, on the eve of war; in "North Light" and "A Room of Frail Dancers" we see what entering, and leaving, battle does to soldiers. "La Volpaia" is wonderfully witty, and "Tamar" is simply lovely. These glib little descriptions have already done enough damage; I will restrain myself from sullying "White Gardens" and "Palais de Justice": you simply have to read them.

    Extractions: "I have been to another world, and come back. Listen to me." From page 127. Our hero, Peter Lake, master mechanic/burglar, citizen of the streets and shores, is contemplating the surprising development that he has fallen in love with Beverly Penn, a young heiress, whose fever and consumption are expected to take her life (any day now). "A young girl, a frailty, simple and true, who had been unable to stand up from the piano and had had to be carried; a girl half his age; a girl who could not shoot a gun, had never been in an oyster house, atop a tower, or under the wharves; a girl hotter always than noon in August; a girl who knew nothing; had thrown him so hard that he would be out of breath forever." From page 236. Being described is Hugh Close, the rewrite editor of The Sun , the newspaper the Penn family owns. "Words were all he knew; they possessed and overwhelmed him, as if they were a thousand white cats with whom he shared a one-bedroom apartment. (In fact, he did not like cats, because they could not talk and would not listen.)" From page 278. Hardesty Marratta, the disinherited younger son of a San Francisco millionaire, is finding out how hard it is to stay up all night playing high-stakes poker on a cross-country train.

55. He Wants To Go Back: Mark Helprin’s "What We Did Wrong" Assessment By Mackubin
    He Wants to Go Back mark helprin’s What We Did Wrong Assessment Editorial May 2003 by Mackubin T. Owens. mark helprin always  
    http://www.ashbrook.org/publicat/oped/owens/03/helprin.html
    
    Extractions: Mark Helprin always makes me examine my assumptions, even when I am pretty sure I don’t completely agree with him. His article " Analyze This " in the May 5 National Review is a case in point. I agree with his criticism of the abandonment by the Pentagon of the "two major-theater war" (2MTW) metric for force planners and with his concern that certain parties will use bogus "lessons" of Iraq and Afghanistan to push their agendas. But much of the rest of the piece left me wondering. As I read him, I can only conclude that he doesn’t really believe that 1) wars should be subject to political judgments, a conclusion that would surprise Carl von Clausewitz; and 2) war has changed since 1945. Let me address our areas of agreement first. As I argued in January on NRO, there was a case for abandoning the 2MTW standard because it "had evolved into a bureaucratic tool for maintaining service and combatant commanders’ claims to the defense budget and for protecting favored programs. It had therefore become, as a number of defense intellectuals claimed, a substitute for strategic thinking… [But force planners still must answer] the question, ’How much is enough?’"

    Extractions: For almost a thousand years, this city floated at the peak of Western imagination. Unlike Jerusalem, it had vanished. Unlike Atlantis, someone had actually seen it. Even during the glory of the British Empire, Coleridge held it out for envy. But no more. Now it has been eclipsed, with ease, by this, our country, founded not as a Xanadu but with the greatest humility, and on the scale of yeomen and their small farms, and as the cradle of simple gifts. This country was not expected to be what it became. It was expected to be infinite seeming in its rivers, prairies, and stars, not in cities with hundreds of millions of rooms, passages, and halls, and buildings a quarter-mile high. It was expected to be rich in natural silence and the quality of light rather than in uncountable dollars. It was expected to be a place of unfathomable numbers, but of blades of grass and grains of wheat and the crags of mountains rather than millions upon millions of motors spinning and humming at any one time, and wheels turning, fires burning, voices talking, and lights shining. But this great inventory of machines, buildings, bridges, vehicles, and an incomprehensible number of smaller things, is what we have. A nation founded according to a vision of simplicity has become complex. A nation founded with disdain for power has become the most powerful nation.
