THE BUD WILSON DREAM
BOOK by Barbara Kramer - Winner of the
Maine Arts Commission Individual Artist Fellowship
Award...The Bud Wilson Dream
Book is a powerful, funny novel about loss and emptiness.
As wacky as this novel is, it is built on a wholly
credible premise. Sally's dream life touches down and
carries the reader with her, through stages of grief,
healing, and growth, on a poignant, often hilarious,
modern day adventure. Congratulations, Barbara
Kramer.
(Geof Hewit, author and poet)... The Bud Wilson Dream Book is the most
imaginative of all the fiction I read for the Maine Arts
Awards. Barbara Kramer achieves a kind of poetry in the
wonderful letters Sally Stone receives about the dreams
late night television viewers weave around TV host, Bud
Wilson. (Suzanne Brown, author, teaches
creative writing at Dartmouth College.)

DRIVEN, Notes of a
Neurotic Entrepreneur: His Trials, Failures, and
Victories by Max Barnet - A business
novel with locomotive force, rare in its honest
presentation of the drama of business. The author holds
nothing back in this story about running a small
manufacturing company. He writes of the double dealings,
the betrayals and petty dishonesties, as well as the acts
of generosity, trust and loyalty that occur in his
relationships with his employees, his customers, the
bank, his friends, his wife and his mistress. Revealing
his deepest conflicts, fears and doubts, brutally
self-aware, the protagonist is DRIVEN to
succeed, and does so at great personal cost. Reviewer
comments: "A crackling novel,
damn near Shakespearean in its drama, psychology and
insight." "No one should get and MBA until
they've read DRIVEN." "A tale worth
telling." "Every business person and the spouse
of every business person should read this book."
