Ron Montana has written six published SF, mystery and mainstream novels, his latest being FACE IN THE SNOW from Bantam in 1992. He sold the movie rights and adapted this book to a film script in 1998. His short stories have appeared in many of the major science fiction and mystery magazines and hardcover anthologies. His first stage play, Community Property, enjoyed a 20-week run in the San Francisco Bay Area and he was the humor columnist for San Jose Magazine and the City Editor of the San Jose Downtown Post Newspaper for three years. He has written ten screenplays, several of which have been optioned by major producers over the last decade. In 1999, he and film collaborator Barry Schneider sold The Sailmaker, an epic multimillion dollar film, for a high six-figure amount. The project should be in production in 2000. He has acted in many films and has directed several stage plays, as well as scripting radio plays. Ron currently resides in San Jose, California, and has one other great love besides writing: riding his Peruvian Paso horses. 4. Book Description RIDE A WHITE ZEBRA is a novel about the realization of dreams. If our characters can succeed in selling a decrepit gray mule to the circus as a white zebra, metaphorically speaking, they can then count coup on a society that considers them to be non-contributory. The characters come together in the Mission Street District of San Francisco when Sally and Jack use Sidneys script, THE ATTACK OF THE GIANT FLEAS (possibly the worst script in the history of American cinema if THE BLOB is not considered), to con Blue Lou into a blackjack hustle to raise $25,000 to fund a fake production company. Lou has been an avid film buff since early childhood (his mother was a drive-in movie projectionist who hung his car seat next to the projector six nights a week), and he is a sucker when it comes to anything dealing with the silver screen. Getting himself involved in what to the casual observer would certainly be recognizable as a scam, he proceeds to lead the intrepid hustlers to Reno to raise the $25,000. On the tour bus fate strikes Sidney when he meets Lorili during her abortive attempt to hijack the bus. It is love at first smite and Sid is torn between duty and romance when Sally disarms Lorili and throws her off the bus. Broken-hearted, Sidney goes through the motions as the gambling team actually does raise the money necessary to begin production on the film now entitled, THE AMNIOCENTESIS CONCURRENCE. ZEBRA is the story of the love between two young people of totally divergent backgrounds: a young Jewish writer with great faith and a low threshold of pain, and a dynamic Latino woman who has very little trouble identifying what she wants and even less in securing it. It is the story of an old man who dreams cinemascopic dreams in Dolby sound and who wants little more than to be a part of something more creative than blackjack hustling before he dies. It is the interweaving of two inept but dedicated con artists determined to finally make that last big score that will allow them to rest for the first time in their treadmill existances. ZEBRA tells how these mismatched and unlikely characters actually bilk a casino out of the seed money necessary to start up a motion picture company, how they attempt to con each other out of the bankroll, and how they finally end up in Hollywood where it is walk the walk time. Someone once said that to fill the job of the Presidency of the United States was impossible, the person elected was never qualified, they were just forced to do the job and succeed because of the mantle of the office. Such is true of Piece of the Action Productions, a company so doomed to failure by virtue of its lack of virtue, it actually does get off the ground. ZEBRA, as well as being a satirical look at movie making and the temperaments of show

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER I wanted to know what they were experiencing, and why to us they feel so compelling, and so close. This time I allowed myself to ask them the question that for a scientist was forbidden fruit: Who are you? Weaving decades of field observations with exciting new discoveries about the brain, Carl Safina's landmark book offers an intimate view of animal behavior to challenge the fixed boundary between humans and animals. Travelling to the threatened landscape of Kenya to witness struggling elephant families work out how to survive poaching and drought, then on to Yellowstone National Park to observe wolves sort out the aftermath of one pack's personal tragedy, the book finally plunges into the astonishingly peaceful society of killer whales living in the crystalline waters of the Pacific Northwest. Beyond Words brings forth powerful and illuminating insight into the unique personalities of animals through extraordinary stories of animal joy, grief, jealousy, anger, and love. The similarity between human and nonhuman consciousness, self-awareness and empathy calls us to re-evaluate how we interact with animals. Wise, passionate, and eye-opening at every turn, Beyond Words is ultimately a graceful examination of humanity's place in the world.

The Zebra Storyteller written by Spencer Holst and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1993 with Short stories categories.
Fiction. "Holst has long been treasured in the underground New York literary scene. His impish delivery is filled with a childlike delight in tale-spinning, and yet his work is recognized for its inscrutable mysteries. Containing every story Holst has ever written, nearly a third of them never before published, this collection should establish Holst's reputation among a wider public. If there is a single aesthetic preoccupation in these tales, it is with storytelling itself. In the title piece, a Siamese cat speaks Zebraic,' bewitching zebras so that he is able to kill them, until he meets the zebra storyteller who has already imagined a Siamese cat speaking Zebraic. This allows him to kill the cat, and that is the function of the storyteller,' Holst concludes. Such postmodern concerns, however, do not become boorish. Above all, Holst seeks to entertain, not lecture; imagination and language receive no especial privilege here, but humor always does. In The Language of Cats,' at the end of one rather long and unsuccessful attempt to describe a confused state of mind, the narrator resorts to: imagine how the world would appear to a person after finishing such a ridiculously lengthy, pointless sentence.' Such authorial winks give a hint of what it is like to be in the presence of this master of the told tale"--Publisher's Weekly.

In 1957, when Amy Turner was four years old, her father had to be talked down from a hotel ledge by a priest. The story of his attempted suicide received nationwide press coverage, and he spent months in a psychiatric facility before returning home. From then on, Amy constantly worried about him for reasons she didn't yet fully understand, triggering a pattern of hypervigilance that would plague her into adulthood. In 2010, fifty-five years after her father’s attempted suicide, Amy—now a wife, mother, and lawyer-turned-schoolteacher—is convinced she’s dealt with all the psychological reverberations of her childhood. Then she steps into a crosswalk and is mowed down by a pickup truck—an accident that nearly kills her, and that ultimately propels her on a remarkable emotional journey. With the help of acupuncture, somatic-oriented therapies, and serendipities that might be attributed to grace, Amy first unravels the trauma of her own brush with death and then, unexpectedly, heals the childhood trauma buried far deeper. Poignant and intimate, On the Ledge is Amy’s insightful and surprisingly humorous chronicle of coming to terms with herself and her parents as the distinct, vulnerable individuals they are. Perhaps more meaningfully, it offers proof that no matter how far along you are in life, it's never too late to find yourself.
