Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS);faqs.182 Blackstone Audio Books P.O. Box 969 Ashland, Oregon 97520 1-800-729-2665 Comment: lots of unabridged classics on tape. Often faulty cassettes -- very low audibility or one side with no audio at all. Readers not as good as other companies. 8) What English-language authors learned English as a second language? AUTHOR FIRST LANGUAGE Arlen, Michael (Dikran Kouyoumjian) Armenian? Asimov, Isaac Yiddish* Bellow, Saul Yiddish, French? Brodsky, Joseph Russian Bronowski, Jacob Polish Broumas, Olga Greek Codrescu, Andrei Romanian Conrad, Joseph Polish Dinesen, Isak (Karen Blixen) Danish Heym, Stefan (Helmut Flieg) German Ishiguro, Kazuo Japanese* Kakuzo, Okakura Japanese Kerouac, Jack French Kingston, Maxine Hong Cantonese Koestler, Arthur Hungarian Kosinski, Jerzy Polish Limonov, Eddie Russian Lin Yu-tang Chinese (Mandarin?) Lowe, Adolph German Malinowski, Bronislaw Polish Milosz, Czeslaw Polish Nabokov, Vladimir Russian* Nin, Anais French Rand, Ayn Russian Reve, Gerard van het Dutch Sabatini, Rafael Italian Skvorecky, Josef Czech Smirnov, Yakov Russian Stoppard, Tom Czech* Traven, B. German? Tutuola, Amos Hausa? (from Nigeria) van Gulik, Robert Dutch Wertenbaker, Timberlake French Wongar, Banumbir Arnhem Land aboriginal language Zukofsky, Louis Yiddish *Learned English as a child. B. Traven is a pseudonym for someone of uncertain national origin, who went to great lengths to obfuscate his past. German was probably his first language, despite his disclaimers that it was English. (More detail: His works were mostly originally published in German, and usually translated into English by someone else, but the US edition of THE TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE was edited for word order from B. Traven's own translation. (And we know he was faking the bad word order, since his letters and diaries are in proper order.) He did sometimes publish in English first a few times, and that part of a pre-publication English manuscript for THE DEATH SHIP (originally published in German) is known.) Other possible candidates include Timothy Mo, who grew up in Hong Kong and was later educated in England. There are numerous Indian and Anglo-Indian writers, like Vikram Seth (Hindi/Punhabi/Hindustani), R. K. Narayan (Tamil/Kannada), Raja Rao (Kannada), Bharati Mukerji (Bengali), Gita Mehta (?), Anita Desai (?), Markandaya (?), Tagore (Bengali), and Salman Rushdie (Hindi/Urdu), for whom English may very well be their second language. Some of the modern Soviet expatriates write in English now (see Smirnov, above). Also Guneli Gun (Turkish), Wole Soyinka, Ayi Kwei Armah (Yoruba?), Ngugi wa Thiong'o (Kikuyu), Dambudzo Marechera (Ndebele?), many other African writers, Waguih Ghali (Arabic), Walter Abish (German), Apirana Taylor (Maaori), Albert Wendt (Samoan). Other possibilities include a number of Chinese and East Asian authors. Also possibly Mavis Gallant, who spoke French as a child in Montreal. Jan Williem Van der Wetering wrote in Dutch and then translated his books into English. How about switches to other languages? French has Samuel Beckett (English), Camara Laye (Dahomey), (possibly) Julien Green (English), Leon Troyat (Lev Tarassov, a.k.a. Lev Tarossian) (Russian? Armenian?), and Elie Wiesel (Magyar and Yiddish). Russian has Fazil Iskander (Abkhaz) and Chingiz Aitmatov (a Central Asian Turkish dialect). Leonora Carrington wrote several short stories in French or Spanish, before their translation into English. Was Paul Celan's first language was Hungarian? Then there are bilingual-from-birth writers, such as Liam O Flaithearta and Sean O Faoilean. 9) What books or plays have been written about scientists? (Given that science fiction would expand this list beyond the disk limits of most systems, this question is restricted to non-SF only.)

Ober: A MIND FOR EVER VOYAGING: WORDSWORTH AT WORK PORTRAYING NEWTON AND SCIENCE 10) Is there really an S. Morgenstern, listed as the author of THE PRINCESS BRIDE and THE SILENT GONDOLIERS? And what is the reunion scene? No, it's really William Goldman. When you write for the reunion scene, this is what you get (or what Mary Margaret Schuck, schuck@ben.dciem.dnd.ca, got anyway): ======= Dear Reader, Thank you for sending in, and no, this is not the reunion scene, because of a certain roadblock named Kermit Shog. As soon as bound books were ready, I got a call from my lawyer, Charley -- (you may not remember, but Charley's the one I called from California to go down in the blizzard and buy _The Princess Bride_ from the used-book dealer). Anyway, he usually begins with Talmudic humor, wisdom jokes, only this time he just says, "Bill, I think you better get down here," and before I'm even allowed a 'why?' he adds, "Right away if you can." Panicked, I zoom down, wondering who could have died, did I flunk my tax audit, what? His secretary lets me into his office, and Charley says, "This is Mr. Shog, Bill." And there he is, sitting in the corner, hands on his briefcase, looking exactly like an oily version of Peter Lorre. I really expected him to say, "Give me the Falcon, you must, or I'll be forced to keeeeel you." "Mr. Shog is a lawyer," Charley goes on. And this next was said underlined: "_He_ _represents_ _the_ _Morgenstern_ _estate_." Who knew? Who could have dreamed such a thing existed, an estate of a man at least a million years dead that no one ever heard of over here anyway? "Perhaps you will give me the Falcon now," Mr. Shog said. That's not true. What he said was, "Perhaps you will like a few words with your client alone now," and Charley nodded and out he went, and once he was gone I said, "Charley, my God, I never figured --" and he said, "Did Harcourt?"* and I said, "Not that they ever mentioned" and he said, "Ooch," the grunting sound lawyers make when they know they've backed a loser. "What does he want?" I said. "A meeting with Mr. Jovanovich," Charley answered. *_The Princess Bride_ was first published in hardcover in 1973 by Harcourt Brace Jovanovich. Now, William Jovanovich is a pretty busy fella, but it's amazing when you're confronted with a potential multibillion-dollar lawsuit how fast you can wedge in a meeting. We trooped over. All the Harcourt Brass was there, I'm there, Charley; Mr. Shog, who would sweat in an igloo he's so swarthy, is streaming. Harcourt's lawyer started things: "We're terribly terribly sorry, Mr. Shog. It's an unforgivable oversight, and please accept our sincerest apologies." Mr. Shog said, "That's a beginning, since all you did was defame and ridicule the greatest modern master of Florinese prose who also happened to be for many years a friend of my family." Then the business head of Harcourt said, "All right, how much do you want?" Biiig mistake. "_Money_?" Mr. Shog cried. "You think this is petty blackmail that brings us together? _Resurrection_ is the issue, sir. Morgenstern must be undefiled. You will publish the original version." And now a look at me. "In the _unabridged_ form." I said, "I'm done with it, I swear. True, there's just the reunion scene business we printed up, but there's not liable to be a rush on that, so it's all past as far as I'm concerned." But Mr. Shog wasn't done with me: "_You_, who _dared_ to _defame_ a _master's_ characters are now going to put _your_ words in their mouths? Nossir. No, I say." "It's just a little thing," I tried; "a couple pages only." Then Mr. Jovanovich started talking softly. "Bill, I think we might skip sending out the reunion scene just now, don't you think?" I made a nod. Then he turned to Mr. Shog. "We'll print the unabridged. You're a man who's interested in immortality for his client, and there aren't as many of you around in publishing as there used to be. You're a gentleman, sir." "Thank you," from Mr. Shog; "I like to think I am, at least on occasion." For the first time, he smiled. We all smiled. Very buddy-buddy now. Then, an addendum from Mr. Shog: "Oh. Yes. Your first printing of the unabridged will be 100,000 copies." **** So far, there are thirteen lawsuits, only eleven involving me directly. Charley promises nothing will come to court and that eventually Harcourt will publish the unabridged. But legal maneuvering takes time. The copyright on Morgenstern runs out in early '78, and all of you who wrote in are having your names put alphabetically on computer, so whichever happens first, the settlement or the year, you'll get your copy. The last I was told, Kermit Shog was willing to come down on his first printing provided Harcourt agreed to publish the sequel to _The Princess Bride_, which hasn't been translated into English yet, much less published here. The title of the sequel is: _Buttercup's Baby: S. Morgenstern's Glorious Examination of Courage Matched Against the Death of the Heart_. I'd never heard of it, naturally, but there's a Ph.D. candidate in Florinese Lit up at Columbia who's going through it now. I'm kind of interested in what he has to say. (signed) William Goldman P.S. I'm really sorry about this, but you know the story that ends, "disregard previous wire, letter follows?" Well, you've got to disregard the business about the Morgenstern copyright running out in '78. That was a definite boo-boo but Mr. Shog, being Florinese, has trouble, naturally, with our numbering system. The copyright runs out in _'87_, not '78. Worse, he died. Mr. Shog I mean. (Don't ask how could you tell. It was easy. One morning he just stopped sweating, so there it was.) What makes it worse is that the whole affair is now in the hands of his kid, named -- wait for it -- Mandrake Shog. Mandrake moves with all the verve and speed of a lizard flaked out on a river bank. The only good thing that's happened in this whole mess is I finally got a shot at reading _Buttercup's Baby_. Up at Columbia they feel it's definitely superior to _The Princess Bride_ in satirical content. Personally, I don't have the emotional attachment to it, but it's a helluva story, no question. Give it a look-see when you have the chance. -- August, 1978 P.P.S. This is getting humiliating. Have you been reading in the papers about the trade problems America is having with Japan? Wll, maddening as this may be, since it reflects on the reunion scene, we're also having problems with Florin which, it turns out, is our leading supplier of Cadminium which, it also turns out, NASA is panting for. So all Florinese-American litigation, which includes the thirteen lawsuits, has been officially put on hold. What this means is that the reunion scene, for now, is caught between our need for Cadminium and diplomatic relations between the two countries. But at least the movie got made. Mandrake Shog was shown it, and word reached me he even smiled once or twice. Hope springs eternal. -- May, 1987 ======= 11) Does anyone have a list of alternate history novels?

Page 293 FEMALE: And he gave me a few of the Xeroxed sheets of paper lying on the table in front of him. As he passed them to me, his thumb brushed mine and I trembled from the touch. I had the sensation that our past and our future were in our fingers and that they had touched. And so, when I began to read the proffered pages, I at one moment lost the train of thought in text and drowned it in my own feelings. In these seconds of absence and self-oblivion, centuries passed with every read but uncomprehended and unabsorbed line, and when, after a few moments, I came to and re-established contact with the text, I knew that the reader who returns from the open seas of his feelings is no longer the same reader who embarked on that sea only a short while ago. I gained and learned more by not reading than by reading those pages, and when I asked Dr. Muawja where he had got them he said something that astonished me even more. MALE: And he gave me a few of the Xeroxed sheets of paper lying on the table in front of him. I could have pulled the trigger then and there. There wouldn't be a better moment. There was only one lone witness present in the garden -- and he was a child. But that's not what happened. I reached out and took those exciting sheets of paper, which I enclose in this letter. Taking them instead of firing my gun, I looked at those Saracen fingers with their nails like hazelnuts and I thought of the tree Halevi mentions in his book on the Khazars. I thought of how each and every one of us is just such a tree the taller we grow toward the sky, through the wind and rain toward God, the deeper we must sink our roots through the mud and subterranean waters toward hell. With these thoughts in my mind, I read the pages given me by the green-eyed Saracen. They shattered me, and in disbelief I asked Dr. Muawja where he had got them. ==================================================================== (Contributions for addition to this FAQL gratefully appreciated.
