Excuse
Me, Your Life is Waiting : The Astonishing Power of Feelings by Lynn Grabhorn This nonfiction self-help book's author was interviewed in The Monthly Aspectarian by Guy Spiro -- an interview that succinctly reveals the salient points of the book.
This is an award winning pure horror novel, tops in its category.
This novel exemplifies the power of the use of point of view to project a philosophical stance about the nature of reality, while telling a story that exemplifies a different philosophy. Kenyon is an author worth studying.

The Series -- TV syndication reruns
Angel the WB TV series Buffy The Vampire Slayer the WB TV series As most readers know by now, I don't review books for the December column to avoid fueling the commercialization so at odds with the spirit of the season. So here we have space to ponder the year's fictional trends, and to ask what happened to all the world-shattering catastrophes? Things have been bad this year -- ranks of refugees swelling, shooting wars, spectacular natural disasters, nasty politics over power, and an election in the USA. But we've also had a roaring economy, vast strides onto the internet, and major changes in how money flows across international borders. |
