My books
1. A Little Knowledge by Joel Barlow 2008, 2010 - A series of related essays on knowledge and the reality we live in, including a good bit of history, physics, linguistics, anthropology and philosophy.
2. The Road From Kaliyuga to Ragnarök by Joel Barlow 2020 - Essays on mythology, the deification of mortals, reality, fabulous frauds, assertions of superiority, challenges in the world we live in, emotional weather, orders of infinity, ancient history, hoarding compulsion and French poetry, sensibly and rationally adjoined.
3. Dignity, Too by Joel Barlow 2009, 2010 - George wants to beat the system - to exist within it lacks dignity. There MUST be a way. He reads of ancient wisdom, of communes and hippies, of "alternative" this and that... refuses to settle for a drab life with boss, debts, homogenous mimicry of neighbors, a straightjacket of rules, inside all day, everything antiseptically packaged. Bad enough to be a Midwestern nobody, without hope of wealth, fame or glamour. People on the coasts might THINK they were smarter or more talented, than he or his ilk, but they weren't. Well, maybe than his ilk, but not than George himself, who certainly did not consider himself a naif.
4. Enticing Siam by Joel Barlow 2006 - Concise details for navigating the rich culture and society, with sections on pop-culture, folk beliefs, festivals, food, tribes, weather, sports, interesting places, herbal medicines, Siamese cats, fighting fish, orchids, and a concise history with intimate examination of Golden Triangle drug trade, plus background on Chinese immigration.
5. IuMien Tao, Ultima Altai by Joel John Barlow - A treatise on how the world’s arguably oldest still revered belief system relates to early East-West interface, mythology and modern understandings, with information on the Iu-Mien people and their art and beliefs, and a bit of poetry.
6. The Dollshop on Gogo Row - by Joel Barlow 2010 - Might a man who marries a waitress get a cook and maid in the bargain? If he marries an Asian bar-girl, will he retain any friends? And even if he does, will the fun go on? Three men and their bar-girl friends, all out to find fun, insight and the joys of cross-cultural contact, if not love, discover instead magic, new social bonds, secret workings, a dangerous plot protected in high places, in another magical story of the Land-of-Guiles.
7. Dream of Self by Joel John Barlow 1976, 1980. illustrated by Jonathan Lethem - poetic essay of a time when one could still struggle to be easy and free, reveling in faded splendor and grandiosity, self-indulgence and lust for adventure.
8. Lost Lanna Found, by Joel Barlow 2005 - History and some contemporary details of as fine a place as any.
9. Going to Laos, by Gene Ballou (Joel Barlow). A novel of alternative social conventions in the New World we made 10. A Web of Connected Curiosities, 2000, 2020:
