Authors Note I wrote my will across He sky, in stars. Colonel T. E. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia) i Tomorrow we shall meet. Death and I, 1 And he shall thrust his sword Into one who is awake.” j Dag Hammarskjold Away we go. I caution the reader by stating that it is highly recommended for one to consume or partly consume my first novel Little Anton in its three-part overbearing juggernaut entirety before reading this book, which is a direct sequel. Oh for shits sake, just thumb through the darn thing! Its a good reference for this lump. Little Anton was always designated to be the long-winded bedrock foundation of my Beatrice Sunderland-and-gang versus the world series; lengthy, yes, an elephant pill to swallow perhaps, but well worth it. Liberal amounts of hot espresso by day and chilled rose by night are imperative, and dont spare the crisp almond cookies. ! The past is important, history is important, for without understanding what really happened, or some semblance thereof, we are lost as a people, as one worldwide race in the sobering present. No matter who we are or what we do, life is either raucously hilarious or astoundingly horrifying, with only boredom, toil, bits of fleeting happiness, and drudgery in between. It was said by tile Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison that words have power, words are important. Its up to us who put fingertips to keyboard, pencil to pad, chalk to chalkboard, to understand that wisdom and make every word count. Hells bells, Ive tried.
