Epigraph (Lish, Gordon)
Who in real life is Lucilla? Or Louise? Did Gordon Lish do away with his wife Barbara in order that he might possess these women? Or did "Gordon Lish" do it? Who is Saint Firmus, then? Or Saint Eustatius? Or Mickey and Jack, or Wilhelm and Fred, or the Clerk of the Court, or the many Mercy Persons - from Bosoodi to Fez? Who wrote Epigraph, this epitaph for the deceased Barbara Lish? Was it "Gordon Lish" or Gordon Lish? Did this woman - in her paralysis and thereafter asphyxiation - suffer the extreme penalty of life because her husband, on his way to render her aid, preferred first to collect from the floor a "jibby-jibby", or was there never any lint at all?.

Conversation with Angels
It is our intention to help you realize your full potential by guiding you through the mechanism of spirit. From our perspective it is simple. You have two main tools and the rest is a variation on this theme. The first is love, and the second is intent. These two are the vehicle and the fuel. You contain all you need, and you create what you need when you are in the now. When you are walking hand in hand with your breath, feeling your heartbeat, you are powerful. The joy comes from being you with you. You are vibrating instruments. To yourselves, you appear solid, but to us you are a vibration. We see you in terms of your colors, we see you in term of your light, we see you in terms of the shapes that surround you, and we can hear your melody. You are a giant orchestra and pyrotechnic display, combined. You are beautiful to us; you are magnificent in every way. When a human plants a seed of enlightenment, all around will begin to see the light. Light does not have an agenda. Light does not try to convince anyone of its attribute. Light just reveals what is there. It is an awesome power to realize your oneness and to set an intention to vibrate at a higher frequency. Discovering your true purpose and your oneness will manifest a bridge of light that will open the path to a new consciousness. And so be it..

Some Delights of the Hudson Valley
A sense of humor is what lead me to my eventual career choice, funny bartender, and then, finally, New Yorker cartoonist And a sense of humor is why, having edited 400 books of my own cartoons, I was asked to pull together the collection you now hold in your hands. My assignment? Contact varied and interesting contributors living or working in this area we love, the Hudson Valley, then beg them to come up with funny material. The response was truly astounding, even to a jaded jaguar man like myself. The brilliant conductor/writer/college president Leon Botstein is here, along with the legendary singer/songwriter/rocker Graham Parker. Writer/poet/professor Robert Kelly shares a laugh, as does (out of slashes-must use alliteration) local literary luminary Mary Gaitskill, chiming in with a truly hilarious cartoon (who knew?). We have stars of stage and screen: Denny Dillon, Mary Louise Wilson, and Lou Trapani, to name a few. Rounding things out is a bevy of cartoonists and writers, artists, and poets, and whether you prefer a sly, knowing grin, a satisfied chuckle, or a full-out braying guffaw, all will make you laugh. So enjoy already. And don't forget to tip your bartender..

The Oak Island Affair, A Novel
Vanessa, a freelance writer who grew up in Spain, is fleeing the pain of an unraveling relationship when she goes to her grandmother's house on Canada's east coast, near Oak Island. Here her discovery of a 400-year old diary written by a failed Spanish Dominican monk rekindles her obsession with an international, multi-million dollar treasure hunt that has drawn investors, including Franklin D. Roosevelt, from Canada, the United States and Europe for more than two hundred years. Vanessa's arrival at a new solution to the mystery, by learning how to see beyond the barriers of reason, plunges her into an underworld from which "there is no turning back, where the rules that run the surface world do not apply...".

Radical Sentimentality
What do cats, donuts, kids, Courtney Love, yoga and fresh deli produce have in common? All have captured the attention of James Servin, a journalist whose articles have appeared in GQ, House & Garden, Black Book, The New York Times, British Vogue and Harper's Bazaar, among other publications. During the last year, he decided that he would cheer himself up by writing a happy poem every day. Most of the time, he was able to. In the spirit of Louisa May Alcott and Grandma Moses, Servin offers these (mostly) cheerful poems. The idea was not to tune out reality, but to recognize the beauty that exists alongside everything else that's trying to get our attention. Staying positive in the real world almost requires a certain kind of defiance - and that's what this sweet-yet-knowing collection of poems is all about..
