Smashwords book reviews by Francis Berger

  • The Man Who Wanted to Come to Dinner on March 19, 2016

    A short, amusing, but incredibly profound and prophetic little play. Achmed isn't coming through the television anymore - he's showing up in person via the migrant crisis and loose borders! Masterful insight into what Solzenitsyn referred to as the next big human conflict - the golden billion versus the rest of the population. Very topical. Highly recommended.
