The Lenny Moss novels are filled with wonderful stories. Amazing, moving, inspiring stories.
Why?
Not because I wrote them. They are wonderful stories because they tell of the lives of working class men and women
toiling in the American health factory, aka, “the hospital”.
They are wonderful stories because they are your stories. They are about your struggles and hopes and fears; of your
triumphs and losses.
They are about the solidarity and community spirit of blue collar communities.
They are about the courage and dedication of union activists who stand up when someone is beaten down and say,
“Wait, that is not right. That is not just. That must not go on. We have to do something about it, and we have to do
it together, because divided we fall, united, we stand tall."
These are the Lenny Moss novels. They are not “fiction,” because they tell important truths. They reveal important
social facts. They explore important issues.
What is a “fiction” writer? A "storyteller?” A storyteller is a reporter of souls. A storyteller is a psychologist of the
human spirit. A storyteller is a historian of human communities. A chronicler of smoldering loves and visceral fears.
Of feet planted on the ground holding up the world.
Storytellers are honest in their recollections of real people in the muck and mire and mine fields of wage slavery.
They are witnesses to our world.
The Lenny Moss novels. Written with love and passion for working men and women everywhere.
