Talk about putting a spring in your step. Mr. Daniel Quinn followed up his outrageously generous blurb, shout-out, and Amazon review with a gift. I guess he wasn't kidding when he said he liked my new book. I almost want to go back and reread it myself! Needless to say, if you haven't thumbed through . . . no, read . . . nay! . . . memorized Quinn's mind-numbingly intense, genre-bending shot-in-the-dark called Ishmael, you need to do so--NOW. It's the reason I had my publisher toss a review copy of Nature's Housekeeper in the Turner winner's direction while keeping my fingers tightly crossed. I'll just say this: Few books garner the attention of both Oscar and Grammy winners. The 1999 film Instinct--starring Anthony Hopkins and Cuba Gooding Junior--and Pearl Jam's "Do the Evolution" are both based on Ishmael. |
