"There was a skirmish at the door. Sharon and Scheherazade, the
absentee guinea pigs, came rushing (or rather scooting) across the
floor. Sharon, a black satin piggie resembling an eggplant, had
greenery dripping from the corners of her mouth. Scheherazade, the
more glamorous of the two, long-haired and streaked blonde, might
have escaped the detection of guilt except for her overwhelming
chlorophyll breath when she mumbled, 'Hi.'"

Dr. Von Sigmund A dash of Mafia and a moral or two...
Set in the 1970s, this novella reflects a microcosm of society - a
modern day fable of the foibles of human nature. From philosophers
to insouciants, from the astute to the naive, it delves into the
timeless theme of greed and its resultant metamorphoses.
It is meant to amuse as well as act as parable. The tale is replete
with puns, double entendres, and juicy, high-powered vocabulary.
The inter-species alliances and discord provide a romp through the
workings of the critters' minds and accentuate the author's love
for her characters.
