Poems, Prose, and Other Lies
Author: Peter Whittlesey
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1491704217
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 201
Book Description
Peter Whittleseys first inspiration for writing and storytelling arose from reading when he was a boy, particularly Mark Twain and Will James. A few years later, when he was studying history at Westminster College, Whittlesey encountered the literary spirits of Jack Kerouac and J. D. Salinger in the stacks of McGill Library. Since then, he has been hauntingly guided by Kerouac and often wonders what treasures reside in J. D.s bunker files. Even so, it wasnt until many years later that Whittlesey really found his own way in writing upon his discovery of Dr. Gabriele Ricos Writing the Natural Way. Her techniques for engaging the whole mind in the creative process proved to be invaluable. With that knowledge, he has created Poems, Prose, and Other Lies. These verses and narratives explore the challenges of letting go, of becoming Somebody Someday, and other subjects that arise from the ups and downs of everyday life. Whittlesey also spins personal tales in his prose from the story of The Little Black Cat to the tale of The Wood Boy: The Legend of Mount Misery, that draw us into their worlds. In this debut collection, Whittlesey presents a whole that is as much the journey of a writer learning his craft as it is a refl ection of life in the wilderness that is our world today.

Three One Act Plays
Author: Peter Routis

ISBN: 1645695816
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 67
Book Description
When the Prince of Darkness decides to destroy Job, the curtain on his life and that of his family will be drawn. Although a loyal servant to God, Job finds peace with himself and his God after his destruction, where he finally finds his place in heaven. The Tragedy of Job captivates the audience with the brilliant, elegant, and compelling dialogues and soliloquies, which bring to life this biblical tragedy. Eli, a Jewish high priest, one of the last Israelite judges before the rule of kings, lived his life serving God at the tabernacle in Shiloh. He took under his wings Samuel, who succeeded him as the last Israelite judge. His end comes at the age of ninety-eight, when he learnt, blind now, that his sons were killed by the Philistines, the Ark of the Covent was captured, and his daughter-in-law dies while giving birth to a son. With captivating dialogues and soliloquies, the drama of Eli underlines one of the most heartbreaking tragedies of the biblical era. When the earth is destroyed due to climate change, there are two lonely souls who meet at the side of a mountain, trying to make sense out of this. The Old Man who has spent his life searching for the truth, desperation takes over him: "Someone said that darkness hides...the truth. And someone else said that...darkness is everywhere." But there is hope as long as the sun rises every morning and the stars shine above the ruins of civilization. But hope always comes after hopeless moments: "I thought you mocked me the other night. I thought you would never appear again. But there you are. Is that a hope? It can't be. But again...what kind of a hope...when everything is...hopeless." For Johanna and Theodore who deserve better. "I know that each one of us travels to love alone, alone to faith and to death. I know it. I've tried it. It doesn't help. Let me come with you". Giannis Ritsos, 20th century Poet
