Journeys of a Prodigal Son, Albert Trajstman , single work novella historical fiction

'Journeys of a Prodigal Son  is a romp set in the sixteenth century, travelling with the story’s insensitive protagonist on a journey through Renaissance Italy. He is shipwrecked and meets a Venetian merchant and his family, a duchessa, a Jewish librarian at the University of Bologna and a wise sophisticated Turk. Liberally laced with sexual adventures, the story takes us to exotic settings and unexpected endings.'  (Publication summary)

Journey to Find out What Happened, Albert Trajstman , single work novella historical fiction

'Journey to Find out What Happened concerns a scam perpetrated against the US army in post-war Paris.  The cast comprises a world-weary journalist, a shady lawyer, an enigmatic US soldier and a number of side characters.  Follow the journalist as he tries to find out what really happened. It’s a mystery in the best tradition of Graham Greene’s The Third Man.'  (Publication summary)

My Journey with the Nixons and Others, Albert Trajstman , single work novella

'My Journey with the Nixons and Others is a bitter-sweet story set in Melbourne from the 1960s to the present, a story of growing up in the company of a bizarre family called the Nixons. Sad and humorous  in turns, it is told in an episodic fashion that never flags.'
