Dabblings of a Dilettante

By Gerry Christmas

Dabbling has often distracted and inspired poets, musicians, painters, scientists, and conquerors throughout the ages. Now, dedicated dilettante Gerry Christmas takes a shot at this long ignored but all too common predilection. Abraham Lincoln, Jack London, Jeffery Farnol, Jack Kennedy, Marilyn Monroe, Noam Chomsky, Bobby Fischer, Basset Hounds, MS-13, nursing home inmates, epileptics, Thai students, Asian despots, Buddhist monks, even God are paints for Christmas's palette. Asked why he finds dabbling so enticing, Christmas did not hesitate. "I haven't a clue," he said. "I've dabbled away most of my life and have every intention of dabbling away the rest of it." So there you have it: the allure of dabbling. Enjoy the book.
