by Marquis Who's Who In America/The World writer Paul Heidelberg has recently been released.
To the general public, and to traditional publishers in particular, COOK'S RETURN A NOVEL OF THE LATE 20TH CENTURY, is now available in print and digital formats at www.amazon.com, www.bn.com. etc.
The author's intention is that a traditional publisher will team with writer Heidelberg to publish COOK'S RETURN under that house's imprint.
To the reading public: As of November, 2015, you can get my book at the above websites, etc. About that I say, do just that and enjoy a book that took very much hard work to start, work on intensely and finish.
A very brief description of the book: Artists create, love and learn on the idyllic Greek island of Crete and in Paris.
The novel has a strong female protagonist -- the Parisian painter Simone, who "paints what she wants to paint, not what art dealers want," but still succeeds at a big art gallery in Paris.
Now, with recent events in Paris, COOK'S RETURN has taken on a new meaning -- it is a record of France, Paris and Parisian artists in a world as it once was; a world that will never be the same.

(The novel was written in Florida after much time spent in Paris, and in Crete, during and after service in the U.S. Air Force at Iraklion Air Station near Iraklion. In Iraklion is the grave site of the Greek writer Nikos Kazantzakis, the author of ZORBA THE GREEK, REPORT TO GRECO and other great books.)
