With a sharp wit, and an abundance of sarcasm and cynicism, it is as though the author was looking under every rug and opening all the closet doors exposing the dirty little secrets and the skeletons that have America marching toward the exit doors of history.By calling to remembrance our foundations of freedom and recognizing the fragility of our nation today, the author exhorts the reader to embrace truth, justice, and the American way. He identifies that 42% of the electorate reside in twenty-five metro areas that seem to be led by one political movement and ignored by the other major party. He challenges the reader to re-examine their choices of leadership by highlighting issues requiring values judgments and exposing the godlessness of the political movements that have our nation wallowing in the mire of wokeness and sliding toward the exits of reality and righteousness. The author addresses controversial issues, including the evil triangle in the black community that through personal greed for wealth and power has ushered in calamity, catastrophe, and the destruction of the black family. He sees the world as standing on the threshold of tribulation and Armageddon and offers a biblical perspective by recalling events in human history where evil conspiracies had consumed and corrupted the modern culture. He includes a stunning illustration of a nation's demise that fell victim to the corrupt leadership of those with religious influence and political power that resulted in the population's apathy and selfishness.He reminds the readership that accountability is a real thing, and judgment day is approaching. Every individual has a free-will that makes choices. It is these choices for which they will one day give account to their maker. In the meantime, they must live with the consequences of their choices! The author does not leave us simply with the identification of the problems, and the whining of the politicians, and the hopelessness of the status quo. He suggests solutions, real solutions, that hold the prospect of America returning to it's "shining city on a hill" status in a world of chaos and corruption.

The symphony, a place of harmony and artistry, soon becomes the background for occurrences that hint at a supernatural presence. The other members and volunteers, each with unique personalities and stories, find themselves involved in secrets and past connections that slowly unravel as the story progresses. Maria and her colleagues discover that their beloved symphony hall is haunted by more than just the echoes of music past. Strange sounds, unexplained events, and ghostly apparitions begin to stir, bringing to light old legends and tales long thought to be mere folklore. Amidst this, the characters deal with their personal challenges and relationships, adding breadth to the story. What are the hidden secrets of the symphony's past, and how are they connected to the mysterious occurrences within its walls? This was the start of a book that promises to keep one fascinated until the very end. Set against the backdrop of an orchestra, the story peeks into the lives of its characters, including their relationships, secrets, and past events. Michele Wallace Campanelli truly shines in her storytelling in A Haunted Symphony. She created a vivid and attention-grabbing world.

Beauty is one of the most universal and timeless themes in art. Throughout history, artists have been fascinated by the human form, especially the female form, and have tried to capture its essence and express its meaning in various ways. Beauty is not only a matter of aesthetics, but also a matter of culture, values, emotions, and ideals. Beauty is subjective, relative, and dynamic. What is considered beautiful in one era, place, or society may not be in another. Beauty is also influenced by the personal preferences, experiences, and tastes of the artists and the viewers. In this book, I present a selection of my paintings that explore the concept of beauty in different historical periods and artistic movements. I have been a working professional painter all of my adult life, and I have always been interested in the history of art and the evolution of female beauty in art. I have studied the works of the masters and learned from their techniques, styles, and visions. I have also developed my own style of painting that combines realism, impressionism, and fantasy. I use realistic details, impressionistic colors, and fantastical elements to create my own interpretations of beauty. My paintings are not meant to be exact copies or reproductions of the original artworks, but rather my personal homage and tribute to them. I do not intend to imitate or compete with the masters, but to express my admiration and appreciation for their art. I also do not intend to make any definitive statements or judgments about beauty, but to invite the viewers to explore and enjoy the diversity and richness of beauty in art. I hope that this book will inspire you to discover and appreciate the beauty of art and the beauty of women in all their forms and expressions. I hope that this book will also inspire you to create your own beauty and share it with the world. If these creations don't take your breath away perhaps you have no breath to give.
