I know times are tight, but I would like to encourage people, if you've not already done so, to please buy a copy of my novel, The Memoirs of Saint John. Aside from the fact that I need the money, it's also a pretty good read, or so I've been told.The book was published last Fall, but the mainstream media have been totally uninterested in reviewing it, and of course I do not have the backing of a major, Zionist-owned publishing house, so your support is important and would be very much appreciated. All proceeds from book sales will go toward financing my trip to Lebanon and Syria, where I plan to carry out research for my next novel—The Memoirs of Saint John, part II—and my plan is for this new book to continue the story of Cateline, the character I introduced in the first novel. For those who've already read the book, you know that Cateline is the orphaned thirteen-year-old daughter of a French actress who committed suicide. Just to give you a rough plot outline of part II...in this continuation of the saga, Cateline learns that her father was Palestinian, whereupon she leaves France and sets out for Lebanon. Landing in Beirut, she begins to mount a search for him, undergoing a series of harrowing adventures in the process.
Eventually, the arrestingly beautiful young girl not only finds her father, but she also meets and falls in love with a young Hezbollah fighter—just as Israel is launching its next invasion of Lebanon. Memoirs part II will also carry on with the story of Cateline's friend and mentor, the priest Dominic LaSalle, who, meanwhile, has taken up residence in next-door Syria, where he and a team of international scholars are busily conducting archeological research on an ancient papyrus manuscript dug up out of the Syrian desert (told of in part I ). The manuscript is a previously-unknown writing believed to have been authored by John, the disciple of Jesus, but before the scholars can complete their work, LaSalle is kidnapped by a group of men masquerading as Islamic resistance fighters though who in reality are working for the Mossad. With help from Hezbollah--the true Islamic resistance--LaSalle is rescued from his captors...just as Israel expands its war into Syria using white phosphorus munitions as it bombs and kills civilians.
As explained in Memoirs part I, Cateline is a normal thirteen-year-old girl in all ways except for two rather striking abnormalities: 1) she is blind...and, 2) she has remarkable psychic visions. As the war with Israel progresses and it becomes glaringly apparent the Zionist state represents a threat to all humanity, Cateline begins playing an increasingly crucial role within Hezbollah—and in Memoirs parts III and IV (I’m looking, of course, way, way ahead here), we will find her using her psychic visions to pinpoint, with uncanny accuracy, where Israel’s next missiles will strike. In so doing, she is able to save literally thousands of lives—as Hezbollah and Iranian forces cut Israel in two in a pincer movement and Russia and China confront a belligerent but bankrupt America…as the fate of the planet hangs by a thread.
Yes, it sounds like an exciting story! But of course in order to get all this written, money is needed. So please, like I say, if you can—buy a copy of the novel! As of Monday morning, June 6, 2011 Barnes and Noble had the print edition listed for $19.01, while Amazon’s price was a few pennies lower—$18.96. The best deal of all, however, is the Amazon Kindle edition at just $9.99. You can also go to Amazon and read the first chapter for free by clicking the button on the right side of the page.
Many thanks,
Uprooted Palestinian
