Many children who attend private schools or who are home schooled face harsh…

Her mother could not hold a job, had no real desire to have one, and would do anything for her beer. The one room apartment had a bed with a filthy mattress, but no… Continue

Guilty or not guilty?

As a court Spanish interpreter, I’ve interpreted that question countless times. But no matter how convincing the evidence echoes through the courtroom, or how stern the judge’s reading of the charges, you never know what the response will be.…

Suspenseful and illuminating, Marwan is brilliantly balanced between the compelling narration of known facts and an imaginative response to unanswered questions. Who are these people who found themselves attracted to the suicide mission of flying American airliners into the towers of the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and, if all had gone according to plan, the Capitol… Continue
