description: The Velvet Machine is a unique blend of thought-provoking essays, humorous anecdotes and real-life adventures as told by two of today’s most bold and candid authors. In Part One, D.J. Blue ( The Good Life Chronicles ) features sociological food for thought in his Velvet Communique series. He tackles a variety of issues, including the root of all sociological evil, a hypothetical explanation of the sleep mechanism from a mathematical perspective, the meaning of dreams, as well as opinions on education, marriage, baseball, and glazed doughnut selection. In Part Two, newcomer S.K. Black paints a colorful, honest and sometimes amusing portrait of Midwestern culture. He also pushes the boundaries of decency with some eyebrow-raising poetry. But the cornerstone of Black’s piece is his droll yet insightful narrative of a trip through America’s heartland, where everything from Kansas cowgirls to Texas State Troopers is experienced and discussed. Part Three is a series of memorable, real-life stories involving the two authors, including their exploits in cities across the United States. The Velvet Machine is a cerebral, boldly provocative, and sometimes amusing book which will make an impression on the reader and will not soon be forgotten.
