The Tao of Chickens

Cover image

There are numerous self-help books on the market that enable people to cope with major life transitions - divorce, the death of a spouse, the move to a new neighborhood, the onset of empty-nest syndrome. Nothing attacks life changes better, though, than the wit and mirth of Catherine Goldhammer's "Still Life With Chickens". Her conversational style is hilarious and reads as if she is sitting across the table from you over coffee and talking about her move to a fixer-upper house by the sea.

A Beautiful Bucket of Bones by M. Luci

Cover image

Author M. Luci has played the perfect tune with A Beautiful Bucket of Bones. The story about love, rebirth, hope and fear takes so many turns and asks so many questions that it is difficult for a reviewer to even attempt to explain the simple complexity of this novel. Will Cara Dolorina take the trip to Italy?

If they made a movie:
I don't think any actors could do justice to these characters. They are best left in the imagination where they are indeed perfect.
