Blurb:

Everywhere Michael turns he sees a Reservoir Man. Michael’s endless trials of survival include sexual assault, The Vietnam War, an arrest in Spain, Hollywood scandal, the AIDS outbreak, 9/11 and beyond.

If only Michael could find the one thing he values most, freedom. Michael’s coming-of-age is tarnished by many but the courage to live his truth may just keep Michael one step ahead...or will he succumb to the embraces of a Reservoir Man?

Author Interview:

If you could go back in time, where would you go?

The late fifties and all of the sixties. Brookyln and New York. The greatest surge in American Intellectualism happened here in this period of time, maybe our last.

What’s the most courageous thing you’ve ever done?

Bringing up my two children alone.

What’s the funniest thing that ever happened to you? The scariest? The strangest?

Due to my absent mindedness I found myself in places I had no intensions of going. The scariest was the incidents in my novel. The strangest was to see my dead friends on the streets during the Aides epidemic, only to realize after approaching each of them…it was not them. They were dead.

If you were stuck on a deserted island, which 3 books would you want with you?

J.D. Salinger’s “Catcher In The Rye,” a Jean Genet collection with “The Thief’s Journal,” and  “Our Lady of The Flowers.” Finally Jack Kerouac’s “On The Road.”

If there is one thing you want readers to remember about you, what would it be?

I found my freedom and truth.

Welcome to my stop on The Children’s Book Review in partnership with Catherine Rose for her book, Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection. About the Book: Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection tells a story of the magic created when the unique talents of a diverse group of children are shared in a colorful adventure. The adventure begins when we see through a boy’s window to find a young trombonist pausing his practice to wonder if other musical voices exist. When an alluring treble note wafts through his window, he begins an excited quest to find the answer. Playing his horn through his neighborhood, the boy draws other curious children to play their unique instruments along with him. Together, they played: “Lend your voice, play your part! Something grand is beginning― join us for the start!” The procession of music makers is touched with magic when their combined voices, raised in harmony, orchestrate a colorful miracle. The ease of poetry and vibrant il...
