Coming on Bastille Day, July 14th, my first noir novel _Two Wheels on Whitewashed Hallway Walls_. A professor from the U.S.A. teaching abroad for a year in Florence, Italy, runs afoul of a pushy upstairs neighbor. How far does a pacifist need to be pushed before they begin to fight back?

At least he's the most notorious person with my first name, but I'm unconvinced killing a US president is actually evil at the present time.

By way of introduction: I wrote, over the course of nearly 40 years, these three novels loosely inspired by Dante's _Commedia_. From left to right they treat of a kind of Hades, purgatory, and paradise.
