FORT LAUDERDALE, JULY 2006: There is a little Miss Cleo in all of us, and because of that we have the ability to prepare for what we already know will happen.

JUSTICE OR VENGEANCE

FORT LAUDERDALE, JUNE 2006: 

“This book has an aura . . . very similar to that of Pulp Fiction or the newly acclaimed movie, Crash.  We don’t want to give any more of it away.  Read it, and you’ll find yourself with plenty to think about.” 

         --Anne Kersten, Twist and Shout.

SEARCHING FOR HER DESIRED HAVEN

FORT LAUDERDALE, JULY 2006:  “War is Hell,” so saith General William Tecumseh Sherman, an officer of the Union Army during the American Civil War.  This phrase is a truism, which is not only a fact, but a bit of an understatement.  War is more than Hell, as we discover every time another episode of hostilities erupts in our turbulent world. During the course of WW II, more efficient and deadlier weapons were invented and brought into the fray, to the dismay of all right-thinking people. In his new book, Desired Haven, Alan J. O’Reilly brings forth a dramatic reality when depicting the horrors of war, and also a compelling representation of the people who pick up the broken pieces, even while coping with traumas of their own.

LILLI-BUNNY

There are times we can only laugh or cry, and since laughter is a ‘consummation devoutly to be wished’, we all can have the pleasure of finding an excellent sufficiency of it in Bruce Kriger’s Lilli-bunny…

A WAR ON THEIR OWN SOIL

FORT LAUDERDALE, JULY 2006:  It’s not often that a historical novel captures the tone, mind-set and perilous mood of the age it portrays, but Lois Glass Webb’s, The Spectre of Death Rode the Land, does it in spades. One feels involved, almost part of the action, and the characters seem like a branch of one’s own family.

The Civil War comes to the wilderness of Southeast Missouri, and John Gordon decrees the family will remain neutral, go on raising corn and hogs. Out of family duty, sons Stuart and Riley stay at the plow while friends ride off to find Confederate General Price.  Frustrated, Stuart leaves in the night to join a local guard unit.

DO YOU REMEMBER!

FORT LAUDERDALE, JULY 2006:  For sure, life is a short affair. And most lives pass like ships in the night, dark and anonymous. What we remember, i.e., memories are at the center of our lives, but memories not written down quickly fade, wind up erased. For sure, history has been less kind remembering the lives of common folk. Until recently, historical writing focused mostly on the few at the top. However, modern, more democratic times have begun to challenge all that. Education, the personal computer, the Internet, the video witness, dramatic changes in television and publishing, in short, the totally new information technology, have begun to revolutionize the way history is remembered and recorded. Joost Hensen’s memoir: Oh, When We Were Young, has made an entertaining attempt in the same such direction, telling a personal tale, but also rewriting history, not only about his native Holland, but also on his new adoptive homes in Canada, America and Brazil, and about a good many other places he visited along the road of life.

FOLLOWING THE LONG WINDING ROAD...

FORT LAUDERDALE, JULY 2006:  Fatty! Four-eyes! Brillo-head! Nerd!  We all know children can be cruel. To a child, being different from the norm individually and/or culturally can be grounds for daily persecution, as well as instilling fear when it comes to the unknown.  In The Long Winding Road, Lynn Broder addresses this complicated bias, and illustrates a lovely way of accepting the differences in each of us, or in the things we do, for ourselves alone.
