Some books can dazzle you, make you stronger, smarter and wildly alive. The Passion of Anyaskaya, which never fails you, is one of them. Publishers are calling every day clearly agreeing. So are critics. In an era when many works of fiction are sanded down to sheer boredom, Bennett Kremen American Inspire Magazine insists,bursts into the world of literary accomplishment like an out-of-print grenade. And The Hollywood Book Reviews is echoing that telling us,The author did such an incredible job of capturing the atmosphere and setting of the era [including the Chicago mob and the incredible Greenwich Village art scene], it leaves the reader's heart pounding as the situation intensifies more and more. And it should quicken your heart too as you meet extraordinary people living and breathing in a threatening reality filled with immense consequences. With an aristocratic name like Anyaska d' Borovik, a brilliant dancer/choreographer born to old, mystical, White Russian parents in the excitement of New York City, there's no ignoring her, not in the highest circles, not in the lowest. Harder yet is ignoring the severe beauty of her firm, sensuous mouth, cheekbones and dancer's flowing grace. Nor can anyone ignore Sonny Boy Aiello, hardened in the flaming dangers of Brooklyn's fabled Bensonhurst, leaving Sonny a wisecracking wise guy, always entertaining, always unique and sometimes as deadly as a blade flashing in the night. But then as fate absurdly would have it, the artist/mystic and the gangster become one against all odds. Try as she will not to let this happen, she fails. A dangerous failure. Because a powerful international banker, Hernri Mellington, obsessed with Anya feverishly, goes half mad in his anguish and wielding his huge wealth and power, goes after Anya and Sonny brutally with no quarter. How can a situation get more fraught than this unremitting drama?
