Bonanza Mammon Booms:In San Francisco the new Bank of California would branch itself in Virginia City, Nevada, a mining town situated on a mountain side over the Comstock Lode of silver. As the branch's moment bigger grows under the direction of William Sharon, so a monopolistic sovereignty of mills and mines is ventured. This drama sets forth the actions of monopolist temerity and what success or miss the principals had.F L Light is the author of the Gouldium, a series of twenty four dramas (all framed to his peculiar form of Athenian tragic poetry), on the life and times of Jay Gould. This play is no less framed. Comments on F L Light's translation of the Iliad:"It is always gratifying, it elevates the human spirit to see one our fellows...set his aim unbelievably high and incredibly hit the mark!" David Madgalene, bilingual author of "I Hear A Journeyman Singing" and many other books of verse."Light has blended very well the traditions of Shakespeare, Homer, and the English language sonnet, without erring on the side of pretense. The language is high, direct, and modern. I'm thrilled with these." Zachary Bos, editor of Sixty Six: a journal of sonnet studies."With a classical, controlled touch, F L Light pursues perfection in metrical form, whilst freely and deftly using resources from earlier phases of the language - something which many modern poets are afraid to do. This work succeeds in sharing with us some of the epic power of The Iliad, which is all too easily lost in translation." Joseph Biddulph, publisher and author of divers books on languages."Certainly the oddest if most distinctive book of verse I've seen since Hector was a pup. The depth of your hatred for Keynesian economics, that could sustain you through 1564 tightly wrought couplets, is dumbfounding." - X. J. Kennedy on Shakespeare Versus Keynes. "For those looking for an alternative view of Shakespeare, for a view framed in a context which the Bard would most likely have enjoyed, Light presents a wonderful presentation."Terrence McGarty, CEO of Telmarc Group, on Shakespeare Undiminished.
