    About this ebook

    In this humorous short story, two Bohemians, Hans Umber and Gilbert Tamarack, are trying to make a living painting pictures in pre-,Katrina New Orleans. However, a pleasant visit to a colleague's opening night turns into something much bigger, when the exhibiting artist violates one of the most sacred tenets of good showmanship.

    Author

    Henri Bauhaus

    My short stories and novellas tend to have one foot based in a real life situation and the other one set in an imaginary or parallel world. Much of my literary background comes from a nomadic lifestyle that began when I left the safe haven of my college town (Syracuse, NY) and headed for the Caribbean Coast of Mexico, where I planned to be a beach bum for a winter. Upon my return to the USA, I settled in the colorful city of New Orleans, but since those carefree days I have lived in many parts of the U.S. and traveled extensively in Canada and Europe. I blog at http://yeyeright.wordpress.com.
