Book 12 mo., softcover, new in red wraps. 280 pp. Fools, the title story in this collection, is a tale of generations in the struggle against oppression. Zamani is a middle-aged teacher who was once respected by the community as a leader of the future. Then he disgraced himself, and now he's haunted by the impotence of his present life. A chance meeting brings him up against Zani, a young student activist whos attempts to kindle the flames of resistance in Charterston Location are ludicrously impratical. Both affection and hostility bind Zamani and Zani together in an intense and unpredictable relationship.
