The main story though is about Macon Dead, called ''Milkman'' because his mother nursed him well past infancy. He is the son of an upper middle-class Northern black mother and a father with working-class Southern origins. Milkman's father is driven to own property, make money, and safe guard his dignity.
Milkman gets involved with his father's 'forbidden' side of the family and discovers that world is dangerous but also rewarding as he realizes the potential found in the stories, failures and victories of his long lost relatives.
''Song of Solomon'' is one of my favorite books. My second read of it was just as enjoyable as the first. Morrison spreads her wings, opening stories of human sympathy, wisdom, and she can be just plain funny or witty depending on your mood. Simply, Morrison is one of America's great writers that belongs on everyone's list.

I have have had a book released at the end of August called Company of Fools (on amazon and on goodreads) which I'd welcome reviews for.
It is a Comedy drama with a hint of romance of sorts, following a young ambitious salesman attempting to acquire 3 life goals; a good ; a girlfriend/wife ; a family. This is his at times tortuous bumpy ride of a journey in his goal to obtain these jewels, However how many does he end up with? Its anyone's guess.
I have a couple of five star review and happy to get any feedback on this book (i also have a poetry book out -ebook only on Amazon too - Poems for the Festive Season) - thanks

I took the One Shared World pledge to be an advocate and safeguard, not only of my beloved United States, but humanity at large. I believe it is my moral responsibility to educate others about a predictive, preventative, and responsive infrastructure that might protect us from shared existential threats. From that perspective, I wrote the book: Make Enterprise Great Again: The Gods Must Be Crazy!: Cradle of Communism to Catacomb of Capitalism

Sold over 1000 books sold in 10 countries, Rave Reviews, and had best seller rank in many Amazon categories! I had Herculean challenges in publishing it, and I am thrilled about the outcome so far. All the proceeds come to me will be donated to Mother Teresa Mission (Missionaries of Charity.
Please consider reviewing this book for a greater purpose.
Sincerely,
The Bushmen from EAST
NOTE: The namesake of this book comes from the 1980 Comedy film “The Gods Must Be Crazy,” in which an empty Coca-Cola bottle is dropped from a plane onto a community of African bushmen. The bottle has a gift from the gods, but after it ensues fighting among the villagers, the tribal leader decides to return it to the gods by journeying to the end of the world. Through my own metaphorical coke bottle, I can see the dawn of the new empire. This book serves as a testament to restoring the current empire (capitalism and enterprises) before it is too late.

About the Author
A Brief History of My Nomadic Re-incarnations
“To fight and conquer in all our battles is not supreme excellence; supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy’s resistance without fighting.”
- Sun Tzu's The Art of War (476–221 BC)
I was born and raised in God's Own Country, Kerala, a tropical paradise in India. In Kerala, we are followers of St. Thomas, the Apostle, educated by Christian missionaries brought by colonizers from Portugal, France, and Britain. 100% literacy and high educational standards in Kerala have led to many progressive movements, including Communism. Kerala has many unique records, such as a model COVID-19 recovery rate being higher than most Western countries. The first place where communists became democratically elected to power in world history, ruled as such since 1957. The resulting industrial desert brought on by Communism forced me to pack up my bags after obtaining my Industrial Engineering degree (with specialization in Total Quality Management) and seek a job in Bombay (the commercial capital of India).
I soon realized my prospects beyond the factory floor became limited by my dark skin (as a lungi-wearing Kala Madrasi). Fearing for my future, I fled to the South to escape the racist professional ladder. I obtained my MBA in finance as a candidate for national integration. Providentially for me, in 1990, the entire Indian economy collapsed under the weight of the half-a-century-old mighty Indian License Raj. The result was a liberalized Indian economy. The timing was impeccable, as it provided me the opportunity to start my career as an Investment Banking Analyst. Fortune smiled upon me again when the 1996 stock market crash in India allowed me to come out of my investment banking career.
India took the socialist route and, during the conflict of the 1970s with Pakistan, which declared emergency rule. Due to the Pakistan war and other non-alignments, the US and India’s relationship soured, and IBM abandoned India. Hail to the vacuum (to be filled), TCS and the other Indian IT conglomerates were born out of desperation. They coded us in IT to kickstart the legacy computers and mainframes left behind by IBM. Thanks to the biggest blunder in business history (Y2K), IBM and the other western enterprises saw us (‘Cyber Coolies’) as the thrifty solution to fix the doomsday Armageddon code.
During this time, I managed to migrate from corporate finance to ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) solutions and snatched my passport to the epitome of capitalism, the USA. Nevertheless, in 2000, the (Netherlands-based) BaaN Brothers got involved in the Dutch scandal, and the #3 ERP (BaaN) system I was riding became a dead horse.
Since then, I have spent over a decade volunteering for PMI. I have etched my name on PMI’s key standards (including PMBOK, OPM3, PP&PM, etc.), thanks to my PMI papers, publications, and books (especially Project Portfolio Management Standard). I even served in Gartner’s PPM board room panel and later became one of the three PM Methodology SME at E&Y. In 2008, amid the economic tsunami, I served as an advisor to CFO’s office, setting up the Project Portfolio Management Office for a Fortune 10 World's Most Admired Company. I saved them around a half a billion dollars, but I became the victim of my short-term financial engineering. I managed to capitalize on the 90s legacy Hyperion Enterprise and moved on to the fancy world of a CFO’s suites of products for more prominent Financial Engineering in the BIG4 consulting world.
In 2009, I packed my bags for the Cambodian Jungles in search of answers from the bottom of the pyramid through Chinese GIFT (Global Institute for Tomorrow) – a Clinton Global Young executive Leadership Program (YLP). The more I examined the finance world in the West, the more disillusioned I became. I lost faith in the rollercoasters of flash markets. 90% of today's stock market without long-term fundamental values is chasing stock buybacks, the Tweets, QE , the hot dollars, and high-frequency algorithmic flash gambles by BOTs. Hail to Hernando de Soto, I was born again to The Mystery of Capital Gospel. Since 9/11, I have won a few dollars betting against the conventional Western market wisdom by gambling in Petro China and Total .
After returning from the wilderness of the Cambodian killing fields , I reincarnated my career yet again, becoming an EPM (Enterprise Performance Management) consultant out of the 2008 Economic Tsunami in the BIG4 world. I made 95% of my net worth between 2008 to 2011 by betting against conventional wisdom. When the whole world deleveraged, I leveraged to the extreme in some of the most iconic real estate in the world which was on Fire-Sale. I do have a fair share of blood on my hands with mindless EPM Financial Engineering through fancy jargon (aka Cost Cutting) such as Tax Effective Supply Chain Management (TESCM), Business/Finance/IT Transformation, BPR, Six Sigma and Pricing and Profitability strategy.
To greenwash my guilt, I had the fantastic honor of volunteering for the most extensive Professional Not-for-Profit for over a decade (PMI [Project Management Institute]), which serves ~3 million professionals, including over 500,000 members in 208 countries around the world. I have contributed to about half a dozen books and ~50 publications/presentations. I started to become involved in several Entrepreneur of the Year (EOY) Awards at Ernst & Young.
Sadly, after over two decades, it looks like I need to ride back through that Mad Max fury redemption road and climb through the apocalypse rubble of Roosevelt’s capitalist nostalgic era.

"Crimes & Impunity in New Orleans" follows the dramatic story of naive, sheltered Shelly going to “The Big Easy” to prepare for El Salvador, but has no idea she will encounter sexism and witness racism as well as illegal activities by government agents.

Review: Shelly’s journey in “the city that care forgot.”
Sherrie Miranda’s new novel “Crimes and Impunity in New Orleans” puts the reader into a whirlwind of political protests, abusive police, sexist attitudes towards women, and “good old boys” racism in 1980’s New Orleans. Miranda’s second novel follows Shelly, the young northerner, as she quickly finds out that she “isn’t in Kansas anymore” while encountering a slew of picturesque, colorful characters. Reading her book makes you wonder if justice and respect for blacks, immigrants, and women can be reality in America.

My debut novel debut was yesterday. I'd love more reads and honest reviews.
"Smart, determined and beautiful; college student and art model Nell seemed to be the girl who had it all. When she finds herself engaged in a passionate relationship with one of the art students, the future seems only brighter. Unplanned pregnancy will change everything though, and she has to find a way to build a very different life than she envisioned. For thirteen years she and her son Charlie are a unit and her world is complete. That world will stop spinning though, when there’s a shooting at Charlie’s school. As she reaches out via text in desperation, only the words and the animated ellipsis on the phone screen offer a buffer between life and death. Can she save the person on the other end of the messages in time, and in the process can she save herself too?"

Do you have motivation? This book sure does, it is the perfect read for anyone who needs a cup of motivation. We as humans go through tons of emotions daily, and sometimes it's hard to relax. This book is a breath of fresh air and your guide to real life, self-development, wisdom, and the plain truth. If you want to go harder in life, you have to do what champions do! If you want to be successful, you have to turn that dream into a reality. If you want to change a bad habit, you must first change your mindset. I write for that boy who is suffering from depression, for that girl who wants to achieve her goals, for that man who needs encouragement through his marriage, for that woman who is getting physically abused by her husband, and for anyone who needs that extra boost of motivation. I give you real people with real problems to help you get through any situation.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08DC69JH9

Words are like seeds you sow that grow and bear fruits. The words you speak are given life when spoken and will eventually define the quality of your life. When you sow mangoes, you would definitely not expect to reap bananas, and so it is when you sow negative words into your life, the result will automatically be negative. Quit using negative words such as I can’t, I won’t, I will never, I just can’t, it is not possible, I can’t help myself, I am hopeless, I can’t live etc. Pay attention to the words you speak; they are your spirit and life. This is not a make-believe piece of work; this is an awareness to sensitise you that there is power in your words.

I recently published my first book - 'Soltera: When Your Coming of Age Story Begins in Your Fifties'.
Hope you all have an opportunity to read it. It is a fun read where many women will be able to identify with and have those moments when you might just find yourself learning what to do next as you identify with the character and the situations she encounters.
Look forward to your reviews and all your feed back.
Warmest regards,

I just released my most recent book back in February 2021. It's called Fairytale's Truth and it's the first book in The Fairytale Adventures series. It is a YA Fantasy Adventure. Maria and Nemoy are new friends and go on adventures together. Nemoy is a garden gnome. It's a story about friendship, love, and helping each other plus a little more along the way. It's my favorite book that I've written so far. It was inspired by my first granddaughter who had a challenging start in life but she's got a love that just melts you in place and all she has to do is enter the room. She's 4 now but the character that represents her is 10.
I would love some reviews for this book if anyone is willing to read it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08X7NWDT8

The purpose of this book is an awkward discussion of Eric Heard's life to his son. He talks about his life in a candid way that tries to explain his anxiety as an African American dad. It is an open and honest account of his life through the life of a child that has been through a lot in his life. It is a reflection on his life that has been shaped by his childhood experiences.
If the book interests you, please email at ericlheard@hotmail.com or message me. Thanks.

Are you ready for the end? An ancient tomb is unearthed live on cable TV after months of hype. It's billed as the archeological equivalent of Shark Week. The actual footage takes a turn no one ever expected. Those minutes of footage will be combed over by governments worldwide seeking to understand what horror came out of that tomb.
They watched the news for weeks as an infection spread quickly across the globe. The videos posted online of people ripping into each other like cannibals on PCP were unreal. The support from the authorities was a joke. No one had a plan in place for this. At least not a plan that involved saving everyone...
Join a tight knit family of outcasts who'll do anything for one another as they battle their way through this freak show. A reality where might makes right and the only thing worse than running out of food and water is running out of ammunition.

Millions of marriages have started out with such great promise, only to end in a bitter divorce. How does one come to grips that the marriage has fallen apart? What thoughts goes through one’s head as they accept that it is over? Does it make you a failure because your marriage failed? Will your children be ok? How does one start over again? What next?
Thomas Michaels explores these questions, having experienced all of this over the last twelve months. Reflections is a collection of 25 pieces, sharing deep emotions and experiences, ranging from discovery, hopeful potential, the painful realization that love is over, the effects on a family, the false hopes of young lust, finding religion at a crossroads in one’s life, and starting over with the hope of finding one’s way home.
Opening with “Across The Rainbows”, the author dreams ahead of journeying over floating bridges and dancing across rainbows with his future bride. In “Letting Go”, as things fall apart and the marriage ends, he finally finds the strength and resolve to “stand with his arms wide open in the rain, letting go of twenty years of heartbreak and pain”. Various flirtations and fantasies arise in “Body and Soul”, and “Too Late, Soulmates”. As he finds himself at a crossroads, he rediscovers faith, and the positive and negative effects it can have on various lives in “Count Your Blessings Twice”. Ultimately, in “Finding My Way Home”, upon much soul searching and reflection, he concludes that even at 44 years old, it is never too late to start over.
Whether you have had to experience divorce in your life, are currently going through one, or are involved in a relationship that you feel trapped and stuck in, “Reflections” offers solitude, a comforting acknowledgement that it is all right to stop, feel the pain, and find yourself, as well as give you the hope and the encouragement that you can begin again.
