At the heart of the 8 compelling nonfiction stories and 5-article appendix which make up Dreams of the Immortal City Savannah is this interesting question: What would your life mean if you were living someone else's dream of what it should be? Possible intriguing answers arise from different individual perspectives, historical situations, and contemporary challenges.The introduction sets the unusual stage for the texts which follow as the author contemplates Georgia state founder James Oglethorpe's dreams for America's thirteenth colony and his possible reactions to conditions in thecity of Savannah today. "What he did not," the author proposes, "and perhaps could not, envision was the extent to which increasing cultural diversity and individual genius would begin to alter our collective experience of history..."In the title story, a well-known chronicler of the Harlem Renaissance contemplates what there is to gain or lose by editing a series of books on the American Civil War as it impacted, and still impacts, his hometown of Savannah. Without at first realizing it, a dream prepares him (almost) for a number of surprising results, including a flood of compassion for people he had never thought of as anything but enemies.The city's more cosmopolitan aspect and how that plays into the narrator's emotional and intellectual experiences of it is examined through several stories. They include: "Cities of Lights and Shadows and Dreams," "A Brazilian Thanksgiving in Savannah," and" [Claude] Monet, [Luther E.] Vann, and [Kahlil] Gibran at the Telfair Museum of Art."The humorous and yet serious tale of "Riding the Bus with Man-Boy and Shaniquananda: And Then Not" takes a look at how traditions and history sometimes clash with modern forms of communication in public spaces. In this case, how should a group of elderly African-American women respond to younger Blacks speaking loudly on cell phones about sexually intimate matters in their lives? "Savannah by the Twenty-first Century Numbers" is the most unusual of the book's narrative's as it combines a study of social realities with metaphysical analysis.By maintaining a steady focus on the evolving dynamics of his hometown and immersing himself in its cultural currents, Aberjhani has been able to glean and share insights applicable to individuals and communities around the world. From informed musings on family life, global warming, immigration, and slavery, to examinations of the power of art, technology, and numbers, he continuously engages readers' imaginations in thrilling and unexpected ways.

For the past two years (2006-2008) The Bridge of Silver Wings has earned a name for itself both as a series of poems published in different e-zines and as a book first published in 2007. What makes this 2009 edition a special one is the inclusion of five new poems: "Angel of Better Days to Come"; "Midnight Flight of the Poetry Angels"; "Photographed Light of My Grandmother's Soul"; "There upon a Bough of Hope and Audacity"; and, "What Angels Call a Poet." Readers exploring the pages of this book are likely to experience it in different ways as they move back and forth between one poetic state of being and another. The Bridge of Silver Wings 2009 may at times appear to be nothing more than a silk-thin illusion --resembling at moments either a terrifying nightmare or a healing vision--spread across an evening mist. While at other times it will register as solid as a concrete sidewalk or a giant boulder. (from author's Foreword)

VISIONS OF A SKYLARK DRESSED IN BLACK is composed of 2 works of short fiction and 52 poems. It was first written and published as the global community not only came to grips with the reality of the attacks on 9/11 in 2001 but as a number of catastrophes shook humanity to its collective core throughout the first decade of the new century. People during that time on the one hand found themselves often reeling from the manmade horrors of war and terrorism. On the other, they also had to cope with the seemingly increasing fury of nature in the form of hurricanes, earthquakes, and tsunamis. Yet these external challenges frequently intensified individuals' inner resolve and moved them to confront physical world chaos with a persistent kind of grace and startled integrity.

Pirate Caleb Graves may be an immortal, but he’s also a navigator and a man of science. And yet he can’t explain the erratic tides threatening Savannah. Nor the terrible dreams of sailing through a vicious, supernatural storm that he keeps having. But when fascinating, petite dynamo Diana Williams marches up to his ship and demands to speak to the captain, Caleb is caught up in a wave of unexpected fear...and an electric frisson of longing for this captivating woman. Diana wouldn’t be a true psychic if she didn’t listen to her spirit guide. So when dream after dream compels her to visit specific coordinates in the Atlantic, she can’t ignore it. Now, she just needs a ship. Good thing she knows about a particular pirate ship that’s in tip-top shape. Complete with a surly, albeit hot, navigator who doesn't immediately believe in her visions. But no matter how much Caleb objects, she’ll risk sending the entire crew—including herself—to the uncharted ocean. But both their dreams could be the key to saving Savannah and may even be a clue about the fabled lost city of Atlantis. Or it could damn them all to an unforgiving, watery grave. Each book in the Sentinels of Savannah series is STANDALONE: * Magnolia Mystic * Pirate's Passion * Pirate's Pleasure * Pirate's Persuasion * Pirate's Promise * Pirate’s Paradox * Pirate’s Protector * The Captain’s Curse
