Dizzier Than Gillespie is a bold, lyrical feminist novel set in Tunisia, where travel, friendship, politics, and a touch of magic collide. When Delilah, an American poet, arrives in Tunis, she’s drawn into a vivid world of souks, cafés, women’s spaces, and quiet rebellion—guided by a fearless Tunisian friend and shadowed by the playful spirit of Saida Manoubia, a legendary folk saint who bends time and rules. Infused with jazz rhythms, sensual wit, and political edge, the novel celebrates women who claim space, defy silence, and live gloriously off‑beat.

Matching wits with Friedrich
Nietzsche Awakens! is a philosophical work, written entirely in aphorisms. It is an analytical way to trigger readers to think:
• to negate “common sense” notions • to re-question the raison d’être of principles and elements • to refuse “absolutes” • to criticize the epistemology and methodology of sciences • to wonder about the ontology of the human being and his/her teleology.
Congo Prophet is an incredible story that’s been waiting patiently to be told, and Hunter’s done everything right to become the writer to tell it. His personal experience in the Congo, as well as his clear understanding of its troubled history, have made him the right author at the right time. Congo Prophet is an exciting, inspiring, provocative novel – his best work yet.
—Charles Wilcoxen, author of Nicolini’s Song
