No Man's Land
by Fielding Dawson
Paperback: (August 2000)
"No Man's Land is Dawson's newest novel, and the first published full-length work based on his experiences as a
teacher in prison writing workshops. Dawson's prose is as sharp as always, and the interaction between the main
character and his pupils is expressed precisely (though not stalely) through dynamic dialogue."

The Big Mango - by Norman Kelley
Paperback
The tropical island-nation of Misericordia is a social and political powder keg, a volcano of pent-up human suffering and rage on the verge of eruption. Founded in the 17th century as a refuge for runaway slaves, "the land of mercy" has since been tyrannized by one vicious, self-serving political despot after another.
Kelley: Both books feature a female private investigator, Nina Halligan. Called mysteries, I prefer the term
"politique noir," which examines at the seamy side of post-modern, post-civil rights America.
