It doesn't hurt that Victor Schrager's photographs turn the most voluptuous of these melons -- Ananas d'Amérique à Chair Verte (Fig. 38), for instance -- into veritable nudes.
"Ananas" (new on the Portland, Ore., record label Audio Dregs) comes off as warped dance music for children who find the Teletubbies slow-moving.
Like Anana's father, the dictionary editor, I shiver at the pleasure of identifying the right word.
As the rush of Anana's adventure faded, I couldn't shake the feeling that in its resolution I had witnessed a wish-fulfillment fantasy, one that embodied the anxieties of commercial publishing's current moment of transition.
And Janet Biggs's "Anana Dream" is a lyrical 2006 video of polar bears in an aquarium, underlining both their beauty and their plight.
