A series of adventures now begin for several unsuspecting people, who, while enduring the mundane tasks of daily life, are greeted by incarnations of celebrities, athletes, poets, politicians, and an evil dictator, to name a few. Author David Finkle is a critic who has written about theater, music, and books throughout his career. He is also a keen observer of human behavior, and his stories reflect that by placing ordinary people in extraordinary situations. His new collection, GREAT DATES WITH SOME LATE GREATS brings to life amazing figures, expired for decades, centuries, millennia even, to embolden modern day folk with their dreams and wisdom from the past.
