Sometimes, vacations just don't turn out the way you hoped they would. An idyllic wilderness house boating get-a-way soon turns into a hellish nightmare...
In an effort to keep senescence at bay, my first novel was published at 77 and second at 82.
Background
Information
The ancillary effects of major events have always interested me.
My new novel, Pausing For A Backward Glance, is about the effect the Dreyfus Affaire in fin-de-siecle France had on the iconic figures of French culture––Monet, Cezanne, Degas, Pissarro, Proust, Debussy, and the effect they had on those events. And how that Affaire roiled the very foundations of French civilization.
Juxtaposing that event with the post-war investigations by the House Un-American Activities Committee into our Hollywood icons, the book examines the similarities between those seminal events and how it roiled our own culture.
