		Robert Carlson's work is never about any specific religion, myth or narrative, rather, his titles are intended to hint at strategies for viewing the assembled imagery.
		Carlson's trademark technique of reverse painting on the three dimensional object creates a rich and mysterious tapestry of images and color which cascade through and over the sculpted glass like a mountain stream.
		From every direction, the viewer is confronted by yet another visual approach--from any given point of view the work can explode into a radically different locus of color and imagery.

		Semi-saturated with sex, psychiatry and courtroom procedure, Robert Traver's Anatomy of a Murder had a surefire formula for bestsellerdom.
		The plot is hand-me-down—hostile columnist, incriminating photograph, Communist smear—and between, Traver rambles on with flatfooted passion about half a hundred worthy causes dear to his heart.
		So dear to his heart, in fact, that Traver (in real life John Voelker) resigned as a justice of the Michigan Supreme Court to write this book.
