GIFT QUALITY. "Jean Auel's fifth novel about Ayla, the Cro-Magnon cavewoman raised by Neanderthals. In The Shelters of Stone, Ayla meets the Zelandonii tribe of Jondalar, the Cro-Magnon hunk she rescued from Baby, her pet lion. Ayla is pregnant. How will Jondalar's mom react? Or his bitchy jilted fiancée? Ayla wows her future in-laws by striking fire from flint and taming a wild wolf. But most regard her Neanderthal adoptive Clan as subhuman "flatheads." Clan larynxes can't quite manage language, and Ayla must convince the Zelandonii that Clan sign language isn't just arm-flapping. Zelandonii and Clan are skirmishing, and those who interbreed are deemed "abominations." What would Jondalar's tribe think if they knew Ayla had to abandon her half-breed son in Clan country? The plot is slow to unfold, because Auel's first goal is to pack the tale with period Pleistocene detail, provocative speculation, and bits of romance, sex, tribal politics, soap opera, and homicidal wooly rhino-hunting adventure. It's an enveloping fact-based fantasy, a genre-crossing time trip to the Ice Age. --Tim Appelo " Goodreads., Crown, 2002, 4.5, London England: Hutchinson, 1991. Hardback. First Edition. Small tear to inside cover page. Slight shelf wear to top edge of D/J. The publication of this book is, of course, a major literary event. But reading them is also like a fascinating evening's talk in the pub in the most congenial and enteratining company. The book describes Amis's family in South London, his schooldays, Oxford, his joining the Army midway through the war, and later Swansea, Cambridge and then leaving the academic world to work as a full-time writer. Interspersed are portraits of friends (and a few foes) ranging from Philip Larkin to Yevgeny Yevtushenko, Tom Driberr to Margaret Thatcher, Anthony Burgess to John betjeman - an Amis gallery written in one of the few unmistable literary voices of our times: acerbic, affectionate, authoritative, comic, occasionally rueful, always honest. And in looking back on decades of friendships, as well as on the quick clashes and lively skirmishes which also punctuate his personal and literary life, Sir Kingsley inevitably provides a revealing and most vivid self-portrait.
