Book Description
In this brilliant essay, Jacques Derrida explores issues of
vision, blindness, self-representation, and their relation to
drawing, while offering detailed readings of an extraordinary
collection of images. Selected by Derrida from the prints
and drawings department of the Louvre, the works depict
blindness—fictional, historical, and biblical. From Old
and New Testament scenes to the myth of Perseus and the
Gorgon and the blinding of Polyphemus, Derrida uncovers in
these images rich, provocative layers of interpretation.
For Derrida drawing is itself blind; as an act rooted in
memory and anticipation, drawing necessarily replaces one
kind of seeing (direct) with another (mediated). Ultimately,
he explains, the very lines which compose any drawing are
themselves never fully visible to the viewer since they exist
only in a tenuous state of multiple identities: as marks on
a page, as indicators of a contour. Lacking a "pure"
identity, the lines of a drawing summon the supplement of the
word, of verbal discourse, and, in doing so, obscure the
visual experience. Consequently, Derrida demonstrates, the
very act of depicting a blind person undertakes multiple
enactments and statements of blindness and sight.
Memoirs of the Blind is both a sophisticated
philosophical argument and a series of detailed readings.
Derrida provides compelling insights into famous and lesser
known works, interweaving analyses of texts—including
Diderot's Lettres sur les aveugles, the notion of
mnemonic art in Baudelaire's The Painter of Modern
Life, and Merleau-Ponty's The Visible and the
Invisible. Along with engaging meditations on the history
and philosophy of art, Derrida reveals the ways viewers
approach philosophical ideas through art, and the ways art
enriches philosophical reflection.
An exploration of sight, representation, and art,
Memoirs of the Blind extends and deepens the
meditation on vision and painting presented in Truth and
Painting. Readers of Derrida, both new and familiar, will
profit from this powerful contribution to the study of the
visual arts.

Drawing Conclusions at the the Louvre.......2000-10-10
This book is both an exhibtion catalogue to a show Derrida curated at the Louvre of drawings on the theme of blindness (complete with many reproductions of works) as well as a brillant investigation into the art of drawing by dealing with blindness as evidence of 'blindness' itself in every act of looking (and of course reproduction). As stated by Derrida, "every drawing of 'the blind' is a drawing 'of' the blind." More than just an example of applied deconstruction, Derrida's reading of these drawings questions the very foudnation of western ideologies of 'looking' and 'seeing' taken for granted as self-evident by artists for centuries. By the end, one wonders who is the author, the artist, the curator?, as Derrida does more with these drawings 'for drawing' than they ever did for drawing themselves. This book is a necessity for any visual artist producing critical work in the 21st century.

The perfect traveling companion........1999-10-24
The image of the transcontinental train trip conveys both the glamour and the grit of American lore, and amazingly, the reality is available to all of us -- as close as the nearest Amtrak station. Terry Pindell is more forgiving than many of the frustrations of the current US passenger system, but he is a poet at heart, and never fails to see the forces of history through his sometimes dirty train window. He is the perfect traveling companion.

Celluloid San Francisco: The Film Lover's Guide to Bay Area Movie Locations
ASIN: 1892145308
Release Date: 2005-03-31 |
Book Description
All cities have their secrets, but none are so dark as San Francisco's, the city that Ambrose Bierce famously described as "a point upon a map of fog." With its reputation as a shadowy land of easy vice and hard virtue, San Francisco provided the ideal setting for many of the greatest film noirs, from classics like The Maltese Falcon and Dark Passage to obscure treasures like Woman on the Run and D.O.A., and neo-noirs like Point Blank and The Conversation. In this guide to more than forty film noirs and the locations where they were shot, readers visit the Mission Dolores cemetery, where James Stewart spies Kim Novak visiting Carlotta’s grave in Vertigo; the Steinhart Aquarium, where Orson Welles and Rita Hayworth rendezvous in The Lady from Shanghai; and Kezar Stadium, where Clint Eastwood, in Dirty Harry, captures the serial killer, Scorpio, in a blaze of ghastly white light.

Best Kind of Guidebook.......2006-09-25
Rich works any number of variations on a theme, and at first what seemed like a liability (the designer's rigid graphic scheme followed by what feels like an exact word count for every entry, no matter if the film is a great one or a lousy one) and makes it into a virtue. He is a skillful and persuasive prose writer, and his knowledge of these films is profound. Ok, there may be incidental errors here and there, as the other reviewers have indicated, but when you're reading his book you don't feel it.
What's amazing is the strength of his central argument, that San Francisco is such a haunted place that right away it became one of the chief noir sites--early on, in 1940, during the so-called "gateway period," and even more astonishing, that despite the general death of noir when color took over general release in the late 1950s, noir has never really died in San Francisco, and the movies keep getting made on a regular basis. Noir experts may scoff at the idea of Schlesinger's PACIFIC HEIGHTS as a noir, but Rich shows us how it fits into the old "real estate noir" category of THE HOUSE ON TELEGRAPH HILL. Or David Fincher's THE GAME, or that crazy Richard Gere-Kim Basinger thriller FINAL ANALYSIS. Who knew? Yet somehow Nathanial Rich, with his quiet, insistent exegesis, makes you believe.
I haven't seen all of the films listed here, nor even seen all the locations, though I plan to take this book on my fist and make a tour soon of the ones I've missed. There are buildings we go by here in San Francisco, like that huge Art Deco pink marble slab up by Buena Vista Terrace, and we tell each other they were in this or that movie, VERTIGO or DARK PASSAGE, and yet is this a way of reassuring each other, or unsettling each other? Can't find that building in this book by the way. Maybe it was just an "urban" legend. If ever I meet Nathaniel Rich, I'll tug at his sleeve till he's by my side on top of that hill and I'll point to it.
He could have said more.......2005-11-03
This book is very handy, but the author shows his disdain for movies he does not like, which causes him to miss the boat on a few. I feel obliged to say (beforehand) that his writing on the two movies I list has enlightened me on things I did not know, though I have studied these movies for years. I am not from SF, so I can only remark on what I have seen, and what I know.
The movie "Hammett" may have been shot (mostly) on sound stage, but it does make use of a few real buildings that are still in existence today. He criticizes the stars acting abilities, though the actor was chosen to play Hammett in two different films - a rarity.
In "Impact" there are a lot more bits of San Francisco that he fails to mention. There was Anna May Wong's running down the alley in Chinatown, views of the Ferry Building that were taken before the Embarcadero hid the view. Street corners and views of bridges abound.
All of that said, I look at the book a lot. I consider it more valuable to my collection than "Footsteps in the Fog." which is about Hitchcock's SF and N. Cal.
No better travel guide.......2005-08-02
This is far more valuable than any travel guide I've read -- and most movie guides, for that matter. We all read novels or see movies set in particular cities and then find our hopes dashed when we go visit them. For instance: ever read The Fortress of Solitude and then book a hotel room in Times Square? Doesn't match up.
Luckily, the author has collected all the bits and pieces of the film noir canon so that when you go to San Francisco you won't be running around confused. More than any other major American city, SF seems to have one dominant mood, one overarching spirit. These films embody that spirit, and by knowing them, you'll know the city. (Trust me, I grew up there.)
On top of this, the book is well-written and entertaining, even if you have no immediate travel plans. Highly recommended.
A Disappointing Read.......2005-07-06
The premise and format of this book are unique, but there are some major bits of misinformation in it which should have been looked over by the editor and/or the writer himself before the book was published. #1: the "Kezar Stadium" entry: "Dirty Harry" shot "Scorpio" in the LEG not the chest. #2:the "Flood Building" entry:stated that Dashiell Hammett was working for Pinkerton's, in the Flood Building, when he wrote "The Maltese Falcon" which is NOT TRUE. He had quit Pinkerton's long before he wrote the book(1922);"Red Harvest" and "The Dain Curse" both 1929 then "The Maltese Falcon" which was published in 1930. #3: the "Bullitt" entry:the author describes the chase scene and where it took place but when describing the end of the chase scene, the author flubs BIG TIME! McQueen DID NOT return to the police station in the Mustang as the author states. The Mustang was disabled when the car spun out on a dirt shoulder, opposite the explosion, the front end winding up in a "ditch" thereby breaking the front axel. Evidently the publisher/editor whizzed this book thru publication before checking it for major flaws!
Book Description
Brand new stories by: Domenic Stansberry, Barry Gifford, Eddie Muller, Robert Mailer Anderson, Michelle Tea, Peter Plate, Kate Braverman, David Corbett, Alejandro Murguia, Sin Soracco, Alvin Lu, Jon Longhi, Will Christopher Baer, Jim Nesbit, and David Henry Sterry.
San Francisco Noir lashes out with hard-biting, all-original tales exploring the shadowy nether regions of scenic "Baghdad by the Bay." Virtuosos of the genre meet up with the best of S.F.'s literary fiction community to chart a unique psycho-geography for a dark landscape.
From inner city boroughs to the outlands, each contributor offers an original story based in a distinct neighborhood. At times brutal, darkly humorous, and revelatory--the stories speak of a hidden San Francisco, a town where the fog is but a prelude to darker realities lingering beneath.
"The protagonists of noir fiction have their own agendas, but for readers much of the pleasure is unraveling the mystery and deciphering the clues that constitute a city, and if there is a love story in noir writing it's the passion of writers, readers, and protagonists for the gritty geographical details. As the bodies drop in the strong stories here, steep, fog-wrapped, fratricidal San Francisco comes alive: here are old neighborhoods, bars, bookstores, the famous and then forgotten landlord arson at 16th and Valencia, buried streams, streetcars, parks, a lost city and the new city haunting almost every page of this gorgeous anthology of San Francisco noir." -Rebecca Solnit
"I was wondering about the city's shadowside that the guides didn't show. These top writers are of the 'As bad as it gets' brand, and then worse. If you like puke, fear & loathing caused by stray bullets, happenstance getting the hero who is an anti-hero really, a male corpse rotting in the bathtub while the woman poops in the garden, the Reverend Christmas shot in the ear by the PO-lice, then this is your good read for a murky, maybe even gritty, weekend." -Janwillem van de Wetering
"San Francisco has long been a city of back alleys and black figures; this is its romantic map." -Michael Ray, Editor, Zoetrope All-Story
Customer Reviews:
House of Sand and Fog.......2006-10-12
To anyone who has ever traveled to San Francisco-even once-it becomes abundantly clear that this city is unlike any other on earth despite how many comparisons are made. It appears caught within its own time warp, neither here nor there, neither now nor coming, cosmopolitan and upscale, yet strangely beatnik still. Its mystery is that it has a reputable personality that's nearly indescribable-and mythical. Born into the gold rush and immense and violent corruption in the 1800s, burned to the ground by earthquake in 1906, and in modern years home to a large and proud population of gays, San Francisco remains enchanting and unforgettable, from its must-see fog to its legendary minute by minute weather.
It is easy to see then why Akashic Books, in a seemingly single-handed effort to corner the market on noir anthologies has begun a series of books set in and around various U.S. cities. San Francisco, after two Brooklyn Noir books and a Chicago Noir anthology, may seem like an unlikely place for modern day gun molls, double dealings gone hideously wrong, hidden atrocities, and otherwise down and out denizens hard on their luck who walk the thin but blurred line between anti-hero and flat-out villain. And yet, here they are spread out over fifteen stories that take place all over San Francisco, from The Haight to Bernal Heights to the Mission and the Castro.
While not all of the stories are good in San Francisco Noir, in particular Sin Sorracco's wandering Double Espresso, Kate Braverman's tepid The Neutral Zone, and Alvin Lu's rather heavy-handed Le Rouge et Le Noir, many hit the target with unwavering talent. It is as if Sorracco, Braverman and Lu did not get the memo on what this collection was truly about and decided to wander off-literally speaking.
David Corbett's It Can Happen displays the author's talent to write like a boxer fights, weaving and bobbing with words, entrancing the reader in a steadily building climax that only fails by the obviousness of the story's last paragraph. And speaking of boxing, Robert Mailer Anderson's Briley Boy is unapologetic in its violence and dark characters, excellently written from beginning to stunning and profound end. Jim Nisbet's Weight Less Than Shadow is the type of story that you'd just as soon find in the The New Yorker or Rolling Stone, and is so well-written the reader may feel compelled to devour Nisbett's witty tongue in cheek narrative twice in a row.
Peter Plate's Genesis to Revelation is a confection of sorts, but seems to lose it by the last sentence, and Barry Gifford's After Hours at La Chinita plays well in theory as it begins with a promising start and gets entangled by its own cleverness in the end, while Jon Longhi's Fixed seemed like a punishment. It is singularly Alejandro Murguia's The Other Barrio that stands out as the anthology's most dedicated work, with a tough-talking protagonist, hard language ("I want you to be my puta."), a femme fatale, an evil and ominous villain, a few thugs, and more than one unfortunate death. Murguia has written this story as if it were a movie, and it plays like that as one reads through it, right up until its predictable but necessary noir ending.
Editor Peter Maravelis has done well in assembling what appears to be writers who are in love with the city of San Francisco. No matter the quality of the work, the emotion and knowledge of the city shines through each tale and makes this book something to consider and recommend. Just be careful of the conversation you have with the trigger-happy moll from the South of Market. It could be your last.
Mixed Bag .......2006-03-30
Good, bad, and ugly. Connection to noir and the City's diverse neighborhoods sometimes tenuous. Provides talent capsules of local literaries, some to pursue, others to avoid. "Deception of the Thrush" by Will Christopher Baer... Dark, riveting, twisted; fast and fluid, seamless episodic shifts, dangling plot. "Fixed" by Jon Longhi... Hilarious, rips PC illusions off the City's celebrated drug culture; charts mindset/path of serial substance abusers. "Larry's Place" by Michelle Tea... Laugh out loud depressing, richly descriptive without the froth; progressive vice; letdown ending. "It Can Happen" by David Corbett. Smooth story line comes crashing down, not one likeable character -- that's its charm. "Confessions of a Sex Maniac" by David Henry Sterry. Has its moments, but tries too hard to be funny; no fan of gonzo. "Le Rouge et le Noir" by Alvin Lu. Noir?? Final impression -- so what. "Double Expresso" by Sin Soracco. Angry/resentful undercurrent; inane dialog; plodding. "The Neutral Zone" by Kate Braverman. Pretentious/overwrought/unreadable; only story I couldn't finish.

Nice little book for the price.......2001-06-23
The jokes are corny but each of the 48 songs includes a paragraph or two about the song and how it came to be. Also includes verses I've never heard before plus the chords to each song. Definitely worth [it].
Customer Reviews:
A great idea for a book but very poorly executed........2007-09-14
This book was a waste of time and (fortunately very little) money. The reviewer that said "mostly fluff" was right on the money, except that he still gave it 3 stars. I bought this book mainly because I was looking for another poker book and I had always wanted to read Sun Tzu's Art of War. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this book. If interested in "The Art of War", buy that instead; If you are interested in a good poker book, buy one of Slanksy's or Harrington's. This book is littered with insights like (to paraphrase) "when your opponent is weaker than you, attack and accumulate his chips; when he is stronger than you, retreat and conserve your chips". Wow, would never had thought of that. Kept reading it hoping their would be something of substance to this book but was disappointed to the end.
great book.......2007-09-03
wonderful. apostolico is a great writer and this book is really different from the tons of books published in the last years...
Tournament Poker and The Art Of War.......2007-03-12
I would say this book was decent but not a must have. If you have read any book on tournaments then there is not need for this one.
Too much fluff.......2007-02-19
A lot of this is saying the same stuff over and over just in different ways
Lost in translation..........2006-07-31
Although this book has an interesting concept, I do not recommend it for any player except for the beginner. The writing is repetitive, and somewhat shallow.
If you are looking for a theoretical/spiritual/strategy type book I HIGHLY RECOMMEND "Zen and the Art of Poker," which helps with life in general as well as at the poker table -- helping reinforce your game and keep you balanced.
Good luck!
