After posts in London, Washington and Singapore, he decided it was time for a change.
This resulted in a year's sabbatical in South India which became the basis of this book. At about this time, another book, "Preludes and Other Poems," was published in London by Christopher Johnson.
On return to the State Department, the author specialized in public and cultural affairs, speech writing and dealing with international expositions. For the latter he received a superior honor award.
The author spent several years' part-time work with the homeless in D.C., where he and his wife live.visualizza meno
