Fabulous, have been waiting for this release by Steve and hardly can wait to delve.
Not only is Steve a great writer, but he is a great READER. As someone who directs theater, I have grown to appreciate authors who have the ability to dramatically read their own material, and Steve really delivers. No burying his head in a book and whispering, he really knows how to grab an audience and hold their attention. I always look forward to his new books and an opportunity to watch his… (yes, it is!) performance.
Have been waiting with great regard for O’Connor newest work, always entertainining,insightful and observant.
