The harlequin preacher stands at your gate,
Offering hope, but arriving too late.
With bible and prayer, he challenges fate.
To him you have nothing to say.

Powerful Work
In his first collection of stories and poems, Powerful MoJo, C. Edgar Nolan wants to gently tug us along on his personal quest for clarity, unravel the fictions and foibles of our human condition and put them back into usable format. He has no time for genteel repartee; he will hit you with raw reality and then take you to a place where an angel dwells in close proximity. He will tease out the best and the worst for all to ponder, then slip you away into a metaphysical retreat for deliverance. MoJo is an easy, quick read, a book you might want to pick up at the airport for a cross-country flight. It is like having dinner with an old acquaintance--both nutritious and memorable, sharing stories of life edited and replayed. ~~ Marilyn Allen Frith
