My most recent novel is Autumn Shadows in August. Roughly modeled on Malcolm Lowry's Dark as the Grave Wherein My Friend is Laid, it's an hallucinogenic mid-life crisis/adventure story, and homage to Lowry and Hermann Hesse. My second novel, Toraware, is a psychological drama about the obsessive relationship of three misfits from different cultural backgrounds in 1980s Kobe, Japan. Both Autumn Shadows in August and Toraware were nominated for Dan Poynter's 2012 Global eBook Awards in the multicultural literature category. Autumn Shadows in August has since been selected as a finalist. Click on the logo to check out the details of this contest.

Looking for the Summer, my first novel, tells the story of a Vietnam War conscientious objector's adventures and search for identity on the road from Paris to Calcutta in 1977. The Many Roads to Japan, my novella/ESL reader about a conscientious objector's many twists and turns in his life journey, is available in print, e-book, and podcast versions.
