Mulubuku and the Fathers

About the Book

    MULUBUKU AND THE FATHERS involves the unsavory mortal entanglement between Moose, the father of a beautiful, brilliant daughter, Millie, and Gus, the father of her classmate, Curtis, an equally brilliant but sorely abused boy. The boy's viciously jealous father seeks access to the greater wealth and power of Millie's father by proposing a union between the two offspring. Moose tries for decades to shield his wife and daughter from the evil of Gus and any knowledge of his dealings with the man. Millie and Curtis, though good friends, realize their own plans for their futures without consulting either father, thereby precipitating the tragic end to the rivalry.

About the Author

    Bruce Bullock, born in Minnesota and currently headquartered there during the tolerable warm months, travels to warmer climates in the U.S. Southwest, the Mediterranean and Mexico in winter. His lifetime career as an oboist, conductor of opera and symphony orchestras and teacher was cut short by a near fatal automobile accident, which drove him to develop an alternative creative outlet in writing. He is available as a lecturer on creative writing and the creative process. He has also always been a scholar of global myth, scriptures and spirituality, and a collector of foreign languages, in ten of which he's proficient, and fluent in about five. Among his other writings are a novel: OSAMA CAPER ISBN 0-75966-528-1, two novels: UPNAUTHORIZED PROCEDURE and INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION, and a collection called THREE SHORT STORIES, all of which will be available at Trafford Publishing in 2002-2003. Three other works are in progress.
