The Black Panther Concertos is a novel in the eros genre of elite literature - works that are characterized by the pinnacle of avant-garde erotica (one thinks here of Nabokov, Anaïs Nin, Simone de Beauvoir…). Jacques Hofstadter, an acclaimed architect enters into therapy with the distinguished psychoanalyst, Dr. Anastasia Katsumi; she is an adjunct professor at the university. Fate conspires with Eros; she is also an alluring, exotic-looking woman with the svelte body of an ex-ballet dancer. During the course of his analysis he falls in love with her. She analyzes his dreams in order to get to the bottom of his mid-life crisis. One day she provokes his sexuality, his ego… it is then that he decides to seduce her by fabricating a series of erotic dreams with avant-garde erotic scenarios. Evidently, this erotica is to her liking… After months of therapy, and much sexual innuendo flowing both ways…, [we ‘fast-forward’ here in time – so as not to give away the story], they elope… meet in Paris, enter into a lurid affair. The erotic writing here is scintillating, sure to blow the foam off the reader’s latte; we come across sexual descriptors (‘orchestral’ metaphors) such as scherzo fantastique, glissando, capriccioso… The book is set in the milieu of high culture – intellectual ideas, philosophy, literature, Freudian - Jungian psychoanalysis, VIP suites in prestigious European hotels, classical music concerts, art galleries, grand architecture. It introduces western readers to the Taoist, Buddhist, Kundalini Yoga… and other esoteric Oriental practices of sexual tantra.

Already, rumours are abounding about literary prizes…
Georg Philippe-Gadamer has announced that he is working on a new book entitled, Chess Master, Zen Samurai, Lessons from the Zen of chess applied to real life. The book will show how, as the subtitle suggests, lessons learned from the game of chess played at the master level, when applied to real life situations… can catapult the reader to unprecedented success. In the book’s title, the term Chess Master is a metaphor for analytical/combinatorial prowess, Zen Samurai for spiritual enlightenment. The author’s thesis is that chess masters display intellectual brilliance over the chess board but, rarely, in the actual way they live their lives. This book endeavours to change this… for ultimately, the real game of chess is how successfully one lives one’s life.
