Live From The Witch Trials

In the words of George Carlin, we in the United States have front row tickets to the circus. In Live At The Witch Trials, the first section reflects the anxiety and concern of the nation, of those at all points on the spectrum. We may find ourselves bemused, outraged, or hapless witnesses at the grand daily public spectacle. As a writer, and a man, after so much archaic history, the author finds it hard to take the side of men. And daily, the divide between men and women grows ever deeper. The book's first section attempts to make sense of the national discourse, uncivilized as it is, and the author's struggle to discern his own place within it.

Juxtaposed against the cruel, carny delights and atrocities, LATWT's second section offers relief from the broadcasts of doom: family and the immersive world of entertainment. Loved ones and the history or great storytelling. Personal and public heroes and heels, whose stories both unknown and epic shape our ethics, cheering and jeering the outcome for no consequence greater than our own righteous sense of peace.
