wanted to share the availability of bobby matherne's reviews of the "ringing cedars" series. see www.doyletics.com/arj/anasta01.htm

this is a short excerpt:
"how she lives makes thoreau's tiny room at walden pond seem like a yuppie pad in comparison. she drinks the pure, living water from a small taiga lake, and squirrels bring her nuts to eat in their jaws when she is hungry. vladimir stared at her as if she were an animal and she set him straight immediately, using the traditional word in russian for a human being of any gender which is translated here as man.

[page 31] "and do you consider your living conditions to be more civilized? yes, of course, you do. but i am not a beast, vladimir.
i am man!"

vladimir slept in the forest that night in a small dugout cave on feathery cedar and grass which smelled wonderful. when she woke him in the morning, he felt a furry pelt she must have given him to keep warm during the chilly night.

[page 38] then she clapped her hands, and the 'pelt' . . . i was horror-struck at the realization that this was no pelt. out of the cave a huge bear began to gingerly crawl. receiving a pat of approval from anastasia, the bear licked her hand and began lumbering off into the forest."
