Hypothesis
Silver Lake Township was a peaceful, idyllic town...at least until the dead bodies started piling up. Jim Mitchell, chief of police in the quiet Pennsylvania town, has a sinking feeling that there may be more than meets the eye To The rash of suicides that has hit his fair community. In an effort to confirm his suspicions, he'll enlist the help of his trusted friend, Pete Woodard. A man possessed of a sharp, analytical mind, Pete soon finds himself immersed in an intricate web of deceit and deception; it doesn't take him long to determine that the only person he can truly rely on is himself. Once the action hits too close to home, Pete knows that unless he can find the answers he needs soon, many more people could fall victim To The nefarious scheme. Join author Jim May as he follows Pete's endeavor to prove his Hypothesis, before it's too late. '...it's just damned good. This can't be his first [book]. We'll take more.' -Marian S. Miskell, Editor, The Community Foundation magazine
By Southern Playwrights
By Southern Playwrights is a rare assemblage of works from the 1980s and 1990s by writers continuing the tradition of Tennessee Williams, Lillian Hellman, and Beth Henley, among others. This book makes available for the first time in print Marsha Norman's romantic comedy Loving Daniel Boone, novelist Harry Crews's only play, Blood Issue, and humorist Ray Blount Jr.'s ventures into one-act comedy, Five Ives Gets Named and That Dog Isn't Fifteen. Also included are novelist Elizabeth Dewberry's first play, Head On, Kentucky novelist and essayist Wendell Berry's The Cool of the Day, and Digging In, a remarkable array of Kentucky farm voices adapted for the stage by Julie Crutcher and Vaughn McBride. Southern playwriting is a distinctive voice in the American theater, a point eloquently made in the foreword by Jon Jory. The literary works of the South, he writes, are dominated by "great language, family, strong women, religion, the land, and the past," all of which makes them wonderful for acting -- and for reading. This entertaining book honors southern playwrights in a collection of works that have premiered at Actors Theatre of Louisville.
