Off the Page ventures into a different sort of writing... namely,
musical composition. Binghamton native Brian
Vlasak, 26, is working
toward a PhD in composition at The
University of Iowa School of Music. While using modernist and post-modernist ideas in his
music, he resists pigeonholing. "I think that we, as composers,
are at a threshold where something big is going to happen, philosophically
speaking," says Vlasak.

Page with Bill Jaker
"The Midnight Band of Mercy" is a novel by Michael Blaine
of Jefferson, NY, set amidst refined society, the lower depths
and yellow journalism of New York City in 1893. Blaine has
carefully researtched the historical period to lend a stark
realism to the story of a newspaper reporter investigating
a murder while a Midnight Band of do-gooders is killing the
city's cats. |
