The Journey: A Novel of Pilgrimage and Spiritual Quest, The Journey begins on the Camino de Santiago and ranges across Spain, France, and Turkey. It is the tale of Gwen, a young American pilgrim, who is confronted by a vision that won’t leave her alone. Driven by the deep longing of her soul, Gwen embarks on an archetypal journey that includes modern-day Druids, a quest for the Grail, the labyrinth at Chartres Cathedral, the Forest of Brocéliande, Black Madonna shrines, and Sufis in Istanbul. Along the way she finds wise teachers and charlatans, true love and its imitations. Her search for meaning leads her, eventually, to discover who she really is.
Following the Milky Way is the story of Elyn Aviva's 500-mile-long journey on foot on the Camino de Santiago. Whether you are a spiritual seeker, an avid outdoor adventurer, or an armchair traveler, you will find this a compelling account of a journey that is as old as human longing and as modern as tomorrow. The 2nd edition includes an updated intro.
Dead End on the Camino is a contemporary mystery inextricably tied to the past. Filled with accurate historical detail, cultural tidbits, and vivid descriptions of culinary delights, cathedrals, and the cities and villages along the Camino de Santiago, Dead End on the Camino takes the reader on a life-and-death treasure hunt across Spain.

Feinberg
The
ET Visitor's Guide to the U.S.A. is an
urbane, sardonic view of American culture told from the perspective
of an extraterrestrial. Like Mark Twain's A Connecticut Yankee
in King Arthur's Court, The ET Visitor's Guide to the U.S.A.
casts a wry eye on the customs and habits of America.
Hypocrisy:
Don't Leave Home Without It is
an expose of hypocrisy in all its various manifestations--educational,
legal, religious, and athletic, to name just a few. According to the
author, "We live in a world where it pays off for institutions and
individuals to create images better than their actual condition justifies."
Read Hypocrisy and learn what human and animal society is really
like.
Where
the Williwaw Blows is based on Dr. Leonard Feinberg's
two-year stint (1944-45) as a naval officer on the island of Adak
in the Aleutians. In this darkly humorous novel, Feinberg turns a
sardonic eye on the foibles of military life while he memorializes
the quiet heroism of some of the men who were stationed on one of
the bleakest military outposts of World War II.
