A WORLD FOR THE MEEK A Fantasy Novel by Harry Willson A post-blast life-affirming fantasy, in which the lone survivor finds a baby in the kiva, rears him, loses him, goes Zen-crazy walking from Duke City to the Gulf of California, where he survives a very long time, and finds love and meaning among the dolphins and the octopi. When the dolphins find our Noah, they think they've found a fossil.

| This fantasy novel is more in the tradition of Gulliver's Travels and Robinson Crusoe than the modern interplanetary invasion and star war craze. Here sensuality and curiosity have replaced violence and acquisitiveness.

| Magically written, and full of wisdom. |
| -- BOOKS OF THE SOUTHWEST |
| ...a magical flower of fantasy...eerie...transcendent. As we contemplate the very real prospect of a devastating near future, Willson's daring meditation through the destruction and out the other end is a wonderful affirmation. It is also an unusual and delightfully rendered story. |
| -- SMALL PRESS REVIEW |
| ...original and fascinating, surprising and uplifting at once...an exercise in modern mythology, creating something grounded in our world and yet speaking to our problems on a more symbolic level...a good tale about the art of living. |
