    "The subject of this book might be that brief eloquence between the fantasies of a dream-bound child and his implementing those through charm, sexuality, his wits. . . . This work of principled sweep and great observational power also champions the centrality of Art as a governing quest. It offers this view with a faith that must recall Proust's life project, his attempt to hold all of time, its characters at synchronous ages, all its warring textures, in one head, one work." -from the Introduction byAllan Gurganus, "The subject of this book might be that brief eloquence between the fantasies of a dream-bound child and his implementing those through charm, sexuality, his wits. . . .

      My mother collected Taylor and Ng mugs, so I grew up using them. When I saw these mugs listed they brought back so many memories of home in San Francisco in the 1960’s through the 1990’s. The mug arrived packed well and exactly as pictured and described. Great seller, fast shipping . Perfect transaction. A+++
