Life According to OH Milne, Paperback

About the Author

The "pen" OH Milne evolved from a dream, something from my Geneseo experience at college, the school library, actually. 'Life According to OH Milne' covers writing's, past and present.

'The Kong Flue Chronicles', a walk through the strangest of year's, 2020, runs the short story gamut from an overaged cyber slacker in his basement and his doting mom, to a rebel Reverend and his flock, to an eye-opening White House Cabinet meeting, to a struggling out-of-work couple from Honduras, to a Hollywood director "escaping" the pandemic with his family to a bunker in South Dakota, among others. It was written in July 2020.

"Nutballs, Nutwings & Other Delirious Things' is the antidote to censorship in America, an decidedly anti-'WOKE' statement, featuring (in two interwoven tales) today's reality of 'Drag Queen Story Hour'...one viewed through the lens of a throwback Mom, who'd be better suited living in Mayberry...her object of derision, 'Clarabellina', suffering a hangover and headed for an engagement at the Michelle Obama Library. 'The Debate Rages On-A Podcast' doesn't pull punches, a bit of political commentary of the day...combining the controlling forces of neo-liberalism, Identity Politics, and mass censorship, with a challenged election result...along with other vignettes from a year that truly wasn't. 'Nutballs' was written in January, 2021.

'Alexandria & Leopold-A Survivor's Tale' is an endearing adventure about a little brother and sister, from Puerto Rico, tossed asunder by the ravages of Hurricane Maria, in 2017, and their surprise trips around the globe...all thanks to a beneficent Albatross. It was, also, penned in July, 2020.

'Sampson Hoards Another Nut' is a beauty, spun from the ages (June '16), featuring the forest creatures, a rampaging flying squirrel, 'Sampson'...the diminutive cherry-cheeked chipmunk, 'Charise'... 'Owsley', the pontificator and a cosmic Eurasian Eagle Owl, named 'Shirina', who makes the barn scene happen from the distant land of Kathmandu. Hopefully, you like this collection. It's a book of humor.
