Excerpt from The Language of the Birds: A Comedy
Abishag (raises her veil). O Lord and Master, thy brow IS furrowed, thine eyes are full of trouble! (goes up to him.) What presseth upon thy soul, what maketh thy breast to heave in anguish? (sits down beside him.) Why do thy lips breathe bitterness, instead of smiling lovingly toward me? Did not my kisses gladden thee? Wert thou not happy in my love? Say, art thou weary of me already?

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book follows the journey of Sabud, an ordinary man, through his extraordinary rise in a kingdom ruled by King Solomon. After an encounter with the beautiful Abishag, Sabud is gifted to her by King Solomon himself as a mark of his profound friendship and trust toward Sabud. Despite his newfound love and fortune, Sabud is troubled and remains unable to articulate to the king that which he most desires. Under mounting pressure from the king, the nature of Sabud's true desire is finally revealed, but not without a hidden catch. This book explores key themes of domination, power, and the lengths to which one might go for love and freedom.
