Shalem's Fair

By Lee Jay Bamberry

Rhoda P. De'Gleeze, the unsuspecting lady hero is on her way to the train station to collect her husband, or so she thinks.With a touch of cosmic absurdity Rhoda encounters a series of endearing characters on their way to the County Fair, or so she thinks. They all seem to know her and honour her accordingly as she struggles to connect the dots trying to make sense of all that is unfolding.This timeless tale is spun with comedy and heartfelt moments all pointing to the mystery of who Rhoda really is, where she is going, and what is going to happen next?As a "touching comedy" that offers pause for thought about death, dementia, and our true heroes of yesteryear, "Shalem's Fair" is a real place especially in the minds of those who believe in the miraculous.Lee Jay's original consideration to write this story was twofold: to explore the style of Absurd Realism while drawing on an Alzheimer condition of someone who once believed in a cause so much that they devoted their life to it.S H A L E M : complete or perfect peace.
