If Mark Twain is "the Lincoln of our literature," then Apollo Starmule is the Walt Whitman of our literature, and perhaps Walt Whitman was President of the United States. It pays not to take our history too literally. Patterning is the thing. And Patterning is flexible and gracious to those who know Her, while remaining invisible to the profane. And all those who are conscious of themselves in Patterning's embrace share themselves with one another, so that contributions are often indistinct in their origins . . . and no literal-minded historian has ever seen anything of origins, not even of the origins of the blocks of stone in his head. But with "AH, MAN A Slim Volume of Poetry" Apollo Starmule reveals a bit of the transmutation of brick into soil thru the search for redemption, that the mere historians among us will begin to realize that their past is not our future, because their past was never real to begin with. Their past is not even their own future, if they finally work up the courage to step up to the plate and claim their Destiny. To heal the past, it is necessary to release unstable, unusable elements as we transform the space that once housed those elements into something resembling a golden temple of passion, and of compassion. Darkness ignored is darkness that rules the ignorant. Darkness transmuted reveals the plane of pure golden livingness, and becomes a part of that livingness. Selah.

From a strip club in Memphis, to a Wal-Mart vestibule in an unnamed city as a vagrant interacting with a seventeen year-old girl, to sweet whisperings carried on across a salty pond, to a naked "devil woman" wearing plastic horns, to a transition of consciousness involving the White Buffalo Maiden, THE WONDERFUL KINDNESS OF THE STRIPPER'S ASS is vintage Starmule, journeying us thru bright sexy regions of this smart young author's consciousness with the sustained authority of a benevolent hydrogen bomb that illuminates without damaging. Highly recommended!

In this engaging and lively little book, Apollo Starmule explores the relationship of human consciousness to Santa Claus and the world inhabited by this legendary being. Many parents will probably want to share this book with their children for, as Starmule explains, "I told myself when I began this document that I was going to try not to cuss, and was going to try to keep my material at a level that could be enjoyed by a general audience, for I realized that some parents would want to share this document with their kids. If you are familiar with some of my other books, you may realize what an unusual approach this is for me." Before you tell your kids the "truth" about Santa Claus, we suggest you find out exactly what that truth is and why it is true. This book gives you a stable platform on which to stand as you address matters of supreme importance to the soul of a child . . . and to your own soul.

UNDO THE WINTER . . . The Groundbreaking Neo-Classic, A High-Water Mark of Popular Literature . . .Read The Silly Novel That's Thrilling Audiences Around The World; ride with Captain Sonny-Bob Culpepper and his self-aware Tactical Interdimensional Time Traveling Yacht (TITTY) as they leave the year 2173 on a mission to 1982 to secure President Ronald Reagan's assistance in restoring the future sexual religion of Aphrodite.

In his most recent effort, Apollo Starmule's bawdy approach to the sacred is on display again, as his obsession with his phallus. Yet Starmule's unusual approach somehow seems to lend a certain dignity to his subject, which marches with head held high on the parade ground of self-esteem with the treatment given by Starmule's deft hand. This little forty-eight page wonder of a book provides a fine introduction to some of the topics Starmule dealt with in-depth in his landmark novel of Speculative Mythology, UNDO THE WINTER. Now with CRUCIFIXION AND RESURRECTION, he has produced a book that is perfect for those times when you don't really want to read a long novel, but would like to read a little bit of something that would make you chuckle, while stimulating your imagination into redemptive new dimensions. Recommended!
