Dorfman Ariel
Mascara
New York. 1988. Viking Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. ISBN:0670823147. 158 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Neil Stuart. Type design by Todd Radom. Jacket photography by Thonsas Lindley. FROM THE PUBLISHER - Acclaimed by Newsweek as �one of the six greatest living Latin American novelists� Ariel Dorfman has now written a novel in English. MASCARA is the story of a man born with a face no one remembers a man who has never been loved because he is not recognizable who has never loved because he sees in people only their most obscene most naked most hidden secrets. One day Oriana comes to his doorstep. She is being pursued; he takes her in. That she has the memory of a five-year-old has no secrets makes Oriana the perfect woman. She is the only one he can love the only soul he wants to protect - from the men who are trying to kill her and from the forgotten woman who might come back to repossess her. For if Oriana awakens from her amnesia she will become like the others �someone with a past with a mask with a piece of lipstick.� Written with inexorable logic taut and sinister Mascara is about sexual domination about power and betrayal about memory. �Memory is always a fraud� says Oriana�s lover �erased manipulated sweetened by somebody somebody always swearing it was some other way until you are not sure yourself.� As haunting as Kafka�s Metamorphosis Ariel Dorfman�s third novel is both a tragic story of doomed love and a call to arms against a world of fabricated personalities and television truths. �Who owns this city� the faceless man asks his enemy and collaborator the plastic surgeon Maleverdi. �You who disguise people or I who open the shutters of their pretense�. Born in Argentina in 1942 ARIEL DORFMAN is a Chilean citizen. A supporter of Salvador Allende he was forced into exile after the coup of 1973. He is the author of How to Read Donald Duck and The Empire�s Old Clothes both nonfiction; the novels Widows and The Last Song of Manuel Sendero; Last Waltz in Santiago and Other Poems of Exile and Disappearance; and a play based on Widows. His books have been translated into twenty languages. A professor at Duke University Dorfman is a regular contributor to The New York Times the Los Angeles Times The Nation and the Village Voice. He lives with his wife and two sons in Durham North Carolina and whenever possible in Chile. inventory #27423 ISBN: 0670823147. hardcover

Dorfman Ariel
My House Is On Fire
New York. 1990. Viking Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket.Remainder Mark On Bottom Edge. ISBN:0670820210. Translated from the Spanish by George Shivers W/The Author. 167 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Neil Stuart. Jacket illustration by Nemecio Antunez. FROM THE PUBLISHER - In these short stories of lyrical often brutal beauty Ariel Dorfman writes of love and betrayal of families broken apart by hope and fear of individuals for whom political authority and violence make private life impossible. In the. title story a brother and sister build the �castle� of chairs and blankets all children have assembled but their need to believe in its protection is all too real. In �Consultation� a doctor being tortured for his alleged treatment of rebels is consulted by the lieutenant in charge of his interrogation. The lieutenant wants to lose weight and wonders whether the biscuits and butter he eats during tea break while the doctor sits bound naked and hooded will make him fat. In �Godfather� a woman is thwarted by the authorities when she tries to register the provocative name of her newborn child. And in �Family Circle� a son explains to his broken father that he has no choice but to join the army; worse that his assignment guarding prisoners may lead him to the ultimate betrayal. MY HOUSE IS ON FIRE is about family life under siege about boundaries that protect those that inhibit and those that violate. Ariel Dorfman �s voice ranges from lush exuberance to spareness so raw that it burns. In spite of the terror in his landscapes Dorfman�s stories are lit by a resilient faith and hope. This collection is the perfect introduction to �the most recent virtuoso from Latin America� Washington Post Book World. ARIEL DORFMAN born in Argentina is a Chilean citizen who was forced into exile after the coup of 1973 that overthrew Salvador Allende. He is the author of HOW TO READ DONALD DUCK and THE EMPIRE�S OLD CLOTHES both nonfiction; the novels MASCARA THE LAST SONG OF MANUEL SENDERO and WIDOWS; LAST WALTZ IN SANTIAGO AND OTHER POEMS OF EXILE And DISAPPEARANCE; and the plays Widows and Reader. His books have been translated into twenty languages. A professor at Duke University Dorfman is a regular contributor to The New York Times the Los Angeles Times The Nation and The Village Voice. He lives with his wife and two sons in Durham North Carolina and whenever possible in Santiago Chile. inventory #27995 ISBN: 0670820210. hardcover
