John Louis Cimasi grew up on a farm on the outskirts of Portland, New York. Over the years, he worked as a successful theatrical producer, playwright, businessman, entrepreneur and author.For the last six decades, John Louis Cimasi has explored life through his poetry, prose and humorous plays, writing on subjects as diverse as love, death, religion, and the amusing characteristic and endurance of the human spirit. He now shares a collection of short stories with you.From the playfully satirical The Cruet Case of The Altered Alter Wine, to the scathing commentary on religious chicanery in The Demigod, Cimasi will lead you through a tearfully inspiring story like Christmas with Buddha. A revelation of humanity awaits the reader in The Richford Girls. Guffaws and chortles come to visit in Laughs. And a fantastic sci-fi tale that will transport you to hope for the future.As with his poetry, Cimasi delves into the challenges and joys of being human. His poetic and prose voice changes style, meter, and visual form to match his eclectic subject matter, leaving readers consistently surprised at his range and elegance.From his multi books of poetry to this first book of short stories, Cimasi is at once thoughtful, quirky, solemn, and passionate. Though individually disparate, combined, they reveal the thoughts of an experienced author always searching for his next inspired adventure.He is the author of Vignettes from a Life, Living Wabi Sabi, Verses from a Life: A Collection of Poetry - Volumes I, II and III.Cimasi is as at home weaving classical and mythological references into his stories as he is exploring the intricacies of contemporary life, religion, and philosophy. Welcome to a vibrant, exciting world of insightful, soul-touching story
