WANTED: ELEVATOR MAN IS MY MOST RECENT NOVEL. IT'S A COMEDIC RIFF ON OVERCOMING OUR FATHERS AND DEALING WITH FAILURE AND FINDING SUCCESS IN THE SMALL THINGS, I KNOW THIS SOUNDS EXCITING AND EVEN MORE THRILLING: ONE BOOK SELLER HAS COMPARED IT TO . . . DONALD BARTHELME. HE ALSO WROTE ABOUT THE WEIGHT OF DYING FATHERS.
MY SECOND BOOK IS CALLED, INSIDE THE WHALE: A NOVEL IN VERSE. IF YOU LIKE NOVELS IN VERSE YOU MAY ENJOY THIS BOOK ABOUT A POET WHO ATTEMPTS TO KEEP HOLD OF HIS GIFT WHILE BATTLING ALCOHOLISM.
MY FIRST BOOK IS CALLED, BEAUTIFUL PIECE (NIUP 10/15/2009). IF YOU LIKE CAMUS' "THE STRANGER" YOU MAY LIKE THIS ONE. IT CONCERNS THE CHICAGO HEAT WAVE, A LOVERS' TRIANGLE, AND A GLOCK 10 MM. BUT MORE THAN THAT IT'S NEARLY A POEM ABOUT THE GRIEF AND TERRORS OF ISOLATION. IF YOU HAVEN'T READ IT, GIVE IT A TRY YOU MAY LIKE IT.
