For some reason I can add sidebars, but not new posts. Please check back later. I have been working on a variety of things including switching my blog soon from this one, which was set up with my now-defunct West Wisconsin Telcom account. I hope to have my new blog through Gmail up soon. I will provide a link and announcement when I've got everything straight. 7/2/11

Recently read: Andrea Camilleri’s The Paper Moon









Here is another excellent novel by Sicilian author Camilleri. Inspector Montalbano is again battling the mysteries of Sicilian secrets, Italian politics and hidden wealth, with a few sexual oddities and killer cocaine tossed into the brew. I enjoy these books, with the imaginative and solitary Montalbano once more having trouble with male menopause and too many attractive females. You’ll be glad to know that he remains true to his absent girlfriend (no, by telling you this it doesn’t spoil the ending at all) and fights crime with his typical mix of truth, justice and the Sicilian way.
