If you're in the mood for a good contemporary thriller, check out Immortal Red, by Keith Hummel on Audible. The link is in the show notes. When a biologist discovers a jellyfish that holds the secret to immortality, things start to spin out of control. Tapping into his years of medical experience, Hummel's convincing thriller spans the globe as governments and mercenaries conspire to acquire the real essence of eternal life. I had a great time recording it. That's Immortal Red, by Keith Hummel. Don't miss it! David Herbert Lawrence was a novelist, poet, short story writer and essayist. His best known novels, including "Sons and Lovers", "The Rainbow", and "Lady Chatterley's Lover", were subjects of censorship trials for their radical use of strong language and sexuality. Lawrence was largely maligned and estranged during his career. However, E.M. Forster in an obituary notice challenged this view, dubbing Lawrence, "the greatest imaginative novelist of our generation". Today's story isn't particularly racy at all, please don't worry about that. But it's elegantly written, and very powerful in it's message. It's from a collection of short stories written from 1913 – 1922, and takes place during World War I. Written a hundred years before the "Me Too" movement, this is one of the issues we're still struggling with as a species. See if the punishment fits the crime. Then ask yourself why you came to that conclusion. And now, Tickets, Please, by D.H. Lawrence.
