The Collected Works of Alfred B. Porter: Volume II: These are the stories you wished your parents and grandparents read to you.
Melanin Man Series
It was really a roller coaster and page turner. It was intriguing from the very start and well worth the read. The story’s main character was particularly interesting.The Adventures of Melanin Man is truly a book showcasing a melting point of culture. I must say that at first the name seemed so farfetched and it appeared like this would be just another book but it really exceeded expectations. It indwells a new sense of pride to recognize what power lies within yourself. I particularly like a book that causes one to spend time in quiet contemplation and this is exactly what this book did to me.
Alfred Porter in this book shows we can create a better world in the spirit of love and togetherness as demonstrated by the major characters in the book.

The Coming Merger of Science and Religion
By Gerald L.
This book came about because of a spiritual word of knowledge given to the author by a man of God, while on a tour to Israel. It attempts to explain mysteries of the universe and show how the author agrees with the latest endeavor by one of the leading cosmologists Stephen Hawkins, to theorize the universe. But it also shows how God fits into it, delving into the controversial subject of Evolution and explaining new insights that perhaps were never realized before.

The Communication Gap: Breaking the Cosmic Communication Barrier
Breaking the cosmic communication barrier is breaking the constricted barrier of the dual mind. Have you ever wondered why there are those who have ears that hear not and eyes that see not? It is evident that it’s not enough to simply hear or see things, for there is something missing when one simply does that.
By breaking the barrier of the dual mind, we come to see and not see at the same time, and to hear and not hear at the same time. We come to have ears that hear and eyes that see. This is why the deaf are said to hear and the blind are said to see.

The Day the Horses Went to the Fair: Animal Lover and Painter: Rosa Bonheur
An author always looks for an angle when writing fiction which Beaupré has done with this novel. He came up with revenants or ghosts for all of his characters as a way of weaving the story together without making it a documentary of Rosa Bonheur’s life and paintings of animals. The author has conjured the likes of a Mozart, a Cervantes and Sir Walter Scott while including other creative artists that influenced Rosa Bonheur. He has also incorporated the descriptions of the Bonheur paintings by herself, the artist, and by her close friend, Anna Klumpke. He has created what he calls a singular novel in that it is not all fiction but an amalgamation of biography, art history and some fiction to make it a creatively cohesive work. The author even intrudes into his work to give it a personal and lively touch.
Norman Beaupré, Ph.D. was born in Maine and pursued his graduate education at Brown University. He taught over thirty years at the University of New England in Maine where he is presently Professor Emeritus. He has traveled extensively and spent two sabbaticals in Paris. He has written and published twenty-one books in English and in French. In 2008, he was awarded the medal of “Ordre des Arts et Lettres” by the French Ministry of Culture and Communications in Paris for his outstanding contribution to French culture.
