The Making of the Modern Artist: Stephen Dedalus and Will Brangwen examines two fictional artists by James Joyce and D. H. Lawrence in A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and D. H. Lawrence’s The Rainbow respectively. It brings together Joyce and Lawrence in their common concern with the modern artist and modern art. Taking the two major artist characters of the two works, this study establishes that Joyce and Lawrence, irrespective of major background, educational, artistic and philosophical differences, converge on the person, character, artistic vision and working methods of the modern artist. This study makes little effort at looking at these fictional artists as alter egos of Joyce and Lawrence; it treats them as modern artists in their own right. It attempts to give them somewhat a critical “right of existence” of their own.

He suddenly left the valley floor and headed off into the trees. It was daylight now, but he still had no sign yet that he was on the right path. He ran through the trees like he was born in the forest. He ran around bushes, under branches, jumped over fallen logs and rocks, and he ran as fast as his legs would carry him. All he could think about was that Brian needed his help. A menacing one world government has taken control and has forced the remaining world populous to submit to their leadership. The inhabitants of a small hidden village called Oasis have chosen to isolate themselves and survive in a beautiful and secluded forested wilderness valley in the west. David Knight, a Native American and guest of Oasis, is committed to helping people survive in this new and dangerous world. He developed his awesome, mystical powers to help others. But danger lurks on the outside, and there are those who seek to infiltrate Oasis and destroy it at any cost.

The author of "Melanin" is a scientist who has penned widely read scientific books, that have been published in several countries. The success of those works has been the clear and engaging writing style, which up to now has been enjoyed only by the very limited professional audience for whom they were written. Under the pen name "Carlos Suarez", the author has now entered the field of pure entertainment. "Melanin" is a short, action novel. It combines the explosive topics of racial tensions and attempted genocide, developing in a series of highly realistic settings that include among others, the inner workings of a medical school, and the luxury Caribbean villa of a business tycoon. The other work, brought out by the same publisher, is "Erotic fantasies". That one is for adults only. A collection of 20 short stories, spicy and explicit, but tastefully written.

All too often, highly fictionalized cinematic depictions of the past are accepted as the unassailable truth by those unfamiliar with the "real" account. This book profiles sixty movies that portray actual moments in history, and compares the mythologized account of each event to what really happened. Movies chronicled include The Ten Commandments, Spartacus, A Man for All Seasons, Gladiator, Gandhi, Apollo 13, The Thin Red Line, Dances with Wolves, Braveheart, The Last Emperor, All the Presidents Men, Mutiny on the Bounty, Gone with the Wind, Bonnie & Clyde, Patton, and Elizabeth. Sanello also contrasts several historical figures with their filmed treatments, including Julius Caesar, Henry V, Christopher Columbus, Joan of Arc, Sir Thomas More, Jesus Christ, Catherine the Great, Sigmund Freud, and Harry Houdini. Lavishly illustrated with sixty film stills, Reel v. Real shows how a happening's genuine details are frequently reshaped and distorted by Hollywood's bottomless appetite for over-the-top flamboyance and melodrama.
