Tori Carrington aka Lori & Tony Karayianni	Jan 10 2008 3:10 PM Akashic rocks! When Sir Robert Knightly invited us to contribute to Queens Noir, our only question was "where do we sign?" Oh, look for Johnny Temple in one of our future books. Er, his name anyway. Although he made enough of an impression on us to inspire one helluva protoganist. Thanks for the friendship... Lori & Tony

philopatrios	Sep 23 2007 5:40 AM Latest Review This complex and deftly plotted tale of intrigue centers on the lives of Vietnamese and Americans caught up in dramatic events. It follows these characters’ actions and their efforts to protect themselves and their loved ones and to pursue their democratic goals. The story plays against the background of the great events of the time. We are led inside pagodas, university halls, American military posts and private homes—all venues with which the novelist is perfectly familiar. Nor are we spared the grisly details of anti-democratic repression. The author displays special powers of evocative language, bringing his characters and their world alive. A major theme of the novel is betrayal—of individuals, of the democratic aspirations of the Vietnamese people, of Americans misled by their government, and of betrayal of truth itself. Historian David Heiser’s review of “Diverting the Buddha”
Subterranean Books	Sep 21 2007 9:34 AM Thanks for the add and helping us sell some dang books.
Losers Club	Sep 20 2007 8:32 PM Pablo Neruda "POETRY" And it was at that age...Poetry arrived in search of me. I don't know, I don't know where it came from, from winter or a river. I don't know how or when, no, they were not voices, they were not words, nor silence, but from a street I was summoned, from the branches of night, abruptly from the others, among violent fires or returning alone, there I was without a face and it touched me. -------- "Poesia" Y fue a esa edad... Llegó la poesía a buscarme. No sé, no sé de dónde salió, de invierno o río. No sé cómo ni cuándo, no, no eran voces, no eran palabras, ni silencio, pero desde una calle me llamaba, desde las ramas de la noche, de pronto entre los otros, entre fuegos violentos o regresando solo, allí estaba sin rostro y me tocaba. -------
