Praise for Return to Paradise
"A brilliant book and a worthy successor to Tales of the South Pacific."--The Atlanta Constitution

"There's drama and pathos and adventure and humanity . . . and a very high degree of excellence. Michener can write."--Kirkus Reviews

Say what you want about his place in literature but James Michener (1907-1997) wrote 11 books and published seven BETWEEN AGE 79 AND 84. Writing in the morning; research in the afternoon. “The job of a storyteller is to tell stories.” https://t.co/YSipcRC9pf
Frank Scozzari is a five-time Pushcart Prize nominee. His award-winning short stories have been widely anthologized and featured in literary theater.
The rules seem to be these: if you have written a successful novel, everyone invites you to write short stories. If you have written some good short stories, everyone wants you to write a novel. But nobody wants anything until you have already proved yourself... —JAMES MICHENER— https://t.co/taLWGJ9pMi
