THE RELUCTANT NAZI

THE RELUCTANT NAZI
It's early 1945, Wolfy and Gayle meet on an idyllic Arizona mountain. Love blossoms. Too bad he's an escapee from nearby Papago Park, a Nazi POW camp.

Free AWP



Attended a free, off-site AWP (writers' schmooze-fest currently in town) reading put on by the Black Earth Institute (their About Place Journal published my No Happier State excerpt, "Sculps") and hosted by my friend Ethna McKiernan. If that wasn't enough, Linda Hogan was one of the readers. Years ago I was drawn to a poem called "The Hands" that I'd read on the bus. Literally. It was up there among the adverts for free clinics and fake business colleges. I went out and purchased her book, Savings, and--until last night--it was the only book of poetry I owned not written by someone I actually knew. A wonderful and interesting evening.

Just wish I was better at schmoozin'...
