Faces in the Firelight, using the vopice of its narrator, plunges the reader into the agony of his malignancy before remissions and periods of painless calm allow him or her to surface again and begin an exploration that will steer the reader over the volatile waves of history. During the journey the author offers plausible explanations for humanities need of the villain, the arch villain, and the other miscreants who populat global societies. His narrator, pausing briefly to further describe his personal battle with his disease, weaves a nuanced story line through strong characterizations that will take the reader on to mid twentieth century. And at its end, those who have probed its contents deeply will surface, perhaps unaware they have subtly changed in outlook. This is a book that will stand the test of time.

The Depression, The Second World War was a time of extremes, when the rawness of the human condition took the form of deep-seated prejudice. Being born and maturing during that period left impressions that needed expression. I chose Faces as my vehicle into the labyrinthine network of the human mind.
