THE CITY AND THE OASYS (IMMORTAL UNDERGROUND)
by Vijay
233 pp. Fiction
Price: $9.00
A funny, sly tale of the adventures and misadventures of Phaldor, a man in search of immortality. He travels to a city called Poplar and is guided by the “Eternal Anima”. There is also romance, political intrigue galore, inhabitants who speak “Unillingo”. The journey is all, convoluted and confounding as it often is. You will laugh a lot, and if you have your wits about you, you may receive something to think about as well. The prose style is dizzying compounded by endless spelling, grammar and punctuation “errors”, many of which annoy, some of which entrance, adding another spin to this whirling traveler.

Price: $2.50

THE DAWNING OF AUROVILLE
by William Sullivan (Auroville, 1994)
333 pp. paperback
Price: $6
The charm and substance of the book lie in that there is more editorship than original writing. Spanning the vision of Sri Aurobindo and Mother and the early pioneers of Auroville to the return visit of H.H. the Dalai Lama in 1993, this collection captures the diversity of the voices and experiences which comprise Auroville. Supporting the text are more than 60 photographs. Anyone who wants the “big picture” of Auroville or vignettes of daily life will be pleased with this compilation.
