I don't get it. He loves her, but she doesn't love him. He doesn't love her, but she loves him. Someone make up your mind, get off the wet rock and kiss someone. Painful.

A must read for all on inner journey.
I put off reading this for a long time because I figured it would be too depressing... once I actually started reading it, though, i couldn't put it down. It can be read and appreciated on many levels, but is also a taut thriller in parts, full of surprises and heartbreak. i don't want to give away any of it, but trust your gut on this one and read it if it sounds compelling enough to you. You won't regret it.

I really liked this story. It was a story about a man who showed his wife that there is more than outer beauty to a person and how they fell in love with each other. this was a very powerful story.

From the author of The Virgin Suicides. I wasn't sure what I was expecting, but it wasn't what the story is, which is an account that feels so real, documenting the family history and decisions that led to Cal's unique birth, contrasting with his discovery of who he really is. I wanted to know more about Cal as an adult but the story rarely goes there.

inspirational and very very funny
From the waning Gomulka regime forward, Kapuscinski fashioned a journalistic career out of exceedingly subtle swipes at the pretenses and tragicomic self-deception of Soviet-style Communism. The Emperor is aimed at Haile Selassie, who Kapuscinski paints as a vapid, self-important ignoramus. How much of this is actually Selassie and how much is carefully picked in order to make fun of Stalin or Khrushchev or even Gomulka is up for debate, but that's exactly what makes this book a masterpiece: I can't think of a more bitter catalog of the pathologies that accompany political power, and by the end it doesn't matter all that much who's in the limo, surrounded by Quislings and sycophants. One of the mysteries of this book is whether dictators like Selassie come into being due to good timing, canny manipulation, or people's gullible belief that they can change their own nature. Kapuscinski refuses to take sides on the question of which comes first, the Hitler or the Reich; he's more of a muralist than a satirist, which is part of what makes The Emperor so satisfying. I can't recommend this book highly enough.
** spoiler alert ** Listening to this book was so enjoyable. Dick Hill performed the narration and did an excellent job - as he usually does. The story itself was rather more relevant to today than I expected for a book written in 1986. The main character Ben is a disillusioned, depressed lawyer who can't move on after his wife is killed in a accident. He answers an ad in an exclusive wish book catalog about buying a kingdom with all the trimmings; dragons, fairies, wizards, etc. Trouble starts before Ben even gets to his kingdom, and is compounded each day by new problems. It seems the magic that holds the kingdom together is fading since there has been no king on the throne for 20 some years. As Ben meets each new challenge from the kingdom he overcomes challenges from himself as well. He learns new things about himself and his motives that eventually lead to his victory in saving the kingdom (this is a story about magic, after all). At the end of the book as he stands before his subjects outlining his plans for restoring the kingdom to its former glory, I couldn't help but hear echoes of President Obama's speeches in my mind. Ben is tackling pollution, disparate trade systems, isolationism, and lost hopes. It just sounds too familiar.
