Book excerpt: Christine Redman-Waldeyer's poems contain questions it is not easy for the reader to answer. She may wish to shy away from them, but it would be at her peril. She observes the natural world, refers to ancient myths, and asks us to judge over lines in the light of their wisdom.--Dr. Laura Winters, Professor of English and Contemporary Poetry, Drew University Open are the doors to a world anew. Let Christine Redman-Waldeyer's latest work, "Rains of Roses," catapult you into levels of consciousness, that until now, few have comprehended. Proposed within these pages are the ideals that one may find a hypothetical "other world" all around in our commonplace lives. With each rune, what was once familiar and wonted is etched to reflect it's rightful more surreal purpose. These symbolic connotations in life can be derived everywhere around us, and lead us as beacons of hope through our own personal tribulations.--Sgt. Robert J. Proft, Saaj "Grigori Dirge"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether set in Maxim D. Shrayer’s native Russia or in North America and Western Europe, the eight stories in this collection explore emotionally intricate relationships that cross traditional boundaries of ethnicity, religion, and culture. Tracing the lives, obsessions, and aspirations of Jewish-Russian immigrants, these poignant, humorous, and tender stories create an expansive portrait of individuals struggling to come to terms with ghosts of their European pasts while simultaneously seeking to build new lives in their American present. The title story follows Jake Glaz, a young Jewish man apprehensive about marrying a Catholic woman. After realizing Erin will not convert, Jake leaves the United States to spend Yom Kippur in Amsterdam, "a beautiful place for a Jew to atone." In "Sonetchka" a literary scholar and his former girlfriend from Moscow reunite in her suburban Connecticut apartment. As they reminisce about their Soviet youth and quietly admire each other’s professional successes, both wrestle with the curious mix of prosperity, loneliness, and insecurity that defines their lives in the United States. Yom Kippur in Amsterdam takes the immigrant narrative into the twenty-first century. Emerging from the traditions of Isaac Babel, Vladimir Nabokov, and Isaac Bashevis Singer, Shrayer’s vibrant literary voice significantly contributes to the evolution of Jewish writing in America.

One fateful night, a storm sweeps through Kansas and whisks him away to the land of Oz. There, he meets a “good” witch named Glennis, who sends him on an “important mission” to save the people of Oz. (He's actually murdering her sister, but he doesn't need to know that). Along the way, he meets a foul-mouthed lady scarecrow, a cowardly knight (wearing way too much armor), and an excessively polite robot named Ten. A Farm Boy in Oz is a genderbent fantasy retelling that isn't meant to be taken too seriously. Please note: This was originally released as a 2-part series.
