Albert Manners is magnetised by the power, wealth and wisdom can bring. A descendant of poor immigrants, he works hard to build an empire that spans twenty countries. Power corrupts him with infidelity, arrogance, greed, and recklessness. Angelique, his wife, conquers loneliness and frustration with illicit affairs and an illegitimate child. Their only son, Mikhail, inherits paranoia and suspicion and is intent on erasing his fathers fortitude and resilience with his own brand of impotent management. The conflict that follows disintegrates the family in different directions and brings the company Chrysanthemum Coronet Inc., the company his father founded into disrepute. Who emerges from an unexpected quarter to take over the Company? Read the gripping story of wasted fortunes and follow Carol Markham as she discovers how the mantle of maturity finally comes to rest on her shoulders. Every page promises to keep you on this journey, right down to the last page. The Chrysanthemum Trilogy: Transition is the first part of a race from construction to destruction to reconstruction. From tragedy comes triumph. Or does it?

Velvet Voice and Vice

By: Marshall E Gass

The 5th volume of Poetry clearly expresses the interest Marshall takes in publishing poems. Often the cross-over from Prose into Poetry is quite obvious (Prosetry). The first volume: Whispers in a Thunderstorm pulled together a collection of poems that were written over a 5 decade period. The 2nd Volume Chiaroscuro emphasised a rejuvenation of poetic skills and concepts. The 3rd volume: Continents on Fire focused on the unrelenting social and political global scene. The 4th volume: Tequila & Temptation played on themes of adulthood, parenthood and finally this 5th volume: Velvet Voice & Vice deals with the theme of relationships, love and laughter and new friendships. The different stages of growth are apparent in these five published volumes. Enlist as a fan and enjoy this journey into poetry landscape with all its beauty and splendour, bask in the sunshine of these exquisite verses and use hundreds of ideas and concepts in your work.

Maririlag na mga Hagod ng Brotsa

By: Marshall E Gass

Masalimuot ang pinagdadaanan ni Max Martin. Ang kanyang karera sa pamamahayag ay bumabagsak. Ang kanyang buhay may asawa ay nanganganib at ang kanyang dalawang kagiliw-giliw na mga anak ay nasa malayo. Ang pagkakataong bisitahin ang lokal na Art Gallery ay nagtulak sa kanya upang hanapin ang pintor na sa tingin niya ay lubos na napapanahon. Sa pagtahak sa landas na ito, dinala siya ng paglalakbay niya sa New Zealand at sa ibayong kontinente. Nagpasya si Max na buhayin ang kanyang malamyang karera sa pagsusulat sa pamamagitan ng pagsulat ng isang nobela na ang pamagat ay Beautiful Brushstrokes. Itinala niya ang lahat ng kanyang pagsasaliksik sa kanyang kwaderno at kalaunan ay natuklasan niyang ang kanyang ginagawa ay nagiging higit pa sa pangkaraniwang proyekto. Anong uri ng likhang sining ang nahanap niya sa galeriyang ito at saan siya dinala ng mga bakas nito? Ano ang kanyang mga nahanap na nagpabago sa pananaw niya sa buhay at bakit siya nasadlak sa kabalintunaan ng mapaglarong tadhana na nagresulta sa aklat na ito? Isusulat ni Max ang nobelang ito at mahahanap niya ang pintor na ito. ‘Yan ang una niyang hakbang upang maiahon ang kanyang karera. Makisali sa paglalakbay na ito upang madiskubre niya hindi lamang ang sarili niya kundi ang marami pang iba tungo sa kanyang tagumpay—o kabiguan! Ito ang ika-9 na nailathalang aklat ni Marshall. Sa paglilipat-lipat mula Tula at Tuluyan (Prosa), pinananatili niyang buhay ang parehong uri ng akda habang sinusuportahan ang bawat isa ng liksi ng isip na nagiibayo sa kanya upang magtrabaho ng walang kapaguran. Kung nabasa mo na ang isa sa mga aklat niya, hahanap-hanapin mo ang natitirang adka niya. Ang kanyang panulat ay nakakalulong.

Continents on Fire

By: Marshall E. Gass

Poems in this volume cover current themes on politics, power, and control in most major hot spots on the globe. Using deft poetic devices, serious in some poems and spoof in others, Marshall is able to draw the readers interest into these events. His acute poetic observation of control and its detrimental effect on local, national, and international communities is succinctly covered. These events are currently in the news and on television. In using powerful symbolism, metaphors, and delicate poetic language, Marshall delivers a volume that is both definitive and beautiful. Continents on Fire exposes so many of these social failings that hold international attention and grab headlines. Dictators and dogmas are treated alike. Similar to previous books, Marshall uses deep contrasts in poetic devices and subject matter to create multidimensional poetry. Join a growing community of readers who have now taken up performance poetry as an art from his previous books. There are poems in this book that will sizzle and sparkle on stage as performance poems and songs of a generation of involved readers swirling in the matrix of magic created by this poet-writer.
