Can Cabaret be a Literary Event? at Sherman Clay Moe's Pianos
November 22, 2009 from 2:30pm to 4pm
Can cabaret be a literary event? Of course! When songs have social meaning and distinct messages to convey, when the songs are separated by prose and poetry of Billy Collins, to name one; I wonder at doubt. So I invite all to my next Cabaret concert…

The Bodleian Library has reprinted this small booklet that was standard issue to all British Servicemen who were being sent to France after D-Day in 1944. It is only 55 pages long, and yet is a superb example of the art of précis. In those few pages…

As a long term expatriate Englishman I am always fascinated by books that attempt to explain, reveal, dissect, and analyze my people. George Orwell has always been a favorite with his ‘Decline of the English Murder’. More recently Paul Theroux got m…

In Defense of Food, Michael Pollan, Penguin

Michael Pollan, the Michael Moore of food, is almost to the point of convincing me that I should put down this piece of pie I am eating and stop poisoning myself, stop being a tool of the processed food industry, stop listening to the government, and take control of my body. Well the governemnt part is easy, but reducing my pastry and carnivorous ways will not be. But I am now much better informed as to what exactly is killing me in my diet. Whether I can truly change what I eat or not will depe… Continue

Early Endorsements for “A Circle of Souls”

Linda Fairstein, NYT Bestselling Author: "A fascinating debut - this novel takes the reader to the darkest places in the human soul, from a writer with the authenticity to lead us there. A stunning thriller and an important read."

Judge Judy Sheindlin, star of the Judge Judy Show: "The seminal work of this fine author kept me glued to my chair until the adventure was over and the mystery solved. A great read!"

Book Synopsis:

The sleepy town of Newbury, Connecticut, is shocked when a little girl is found brutally murdered. The town s top detective, perplexed by a complete lack of leads, calls in FBI agent Leia Bines, an expert in cases involving children.

Meanwhile, Dr. Peter Gram, a psychiatrist at Newbury s hospital, searches desperately for the cause of seven-year-old Naya Hastings devastating nightmares. Afraid that she might hurt herself in the midst of a torturous episode, Naya s parents have turned to the bright young doctor as their only hope.

The situations confronting Leia and Peter converge when Naya begins drawing chilling images of murder after being bombarded by the disturbing images in her dreams. Amazingly, her sketches are the only clues to the crime that has panicked Newbury residents. Against her better judgment, Leia explores the clues in Naya s crude drawings, only to set off an alarming chain of events.
In this stunning psychological thriller, innocence gives way to evil, and trust lies forgotten in a web of deceit, fear, and murder.
