Passion Job

There are moments in our lives that can change the course we’re on. I believe when faced with those moments, we should take the unknown path. The night I stumbled into a burlesque club in downtown Los Angeles, I took one of those paths and changed my life. I found a home I’d never had with my own parents. I found a confidence I’d never known as a prima ballerina. I found my passion. And it inadvertently led me back to the one moment I’d let slip away - to him. To a love so pure and whole and carnal, I thought it could withstand anything.

Set during the tumultuous years of the Napoleonic Wars, The Passion intertwines the destinies of two remarkable people: Henri, a simple French soldier, who follows Napoleon from glory to Russian ruin; and Villanelle, the red-haired, web-footed daughter of a Venetian boatman, whose husband has gambled away her heart. In Venice’s compound of carnival, chance, and darkness, the pair meets their singular destiny.

Toute ma vie j'ai eu de la chance, beaucoup de chance, peut-être même trop de chance quand je pense à tous ceux qui n'ont d'autre choix que d'affronter la grisaille d'un quotidien désespérant et, souvent, douloureux. Ce n'est pas que les épreuves m'ont été épargnées. J'ai eu mon lot d'échecs professionnels et personnels. J'ai même l'impression d'avoir parfois dû payer un prix élevé au succès, et à la notoriété. Mais jamais, au grand jamais, je n'ai connu l'ennui.

The idea that work might be fulfilling rather than just necessary is a recent invention.

I have waited for over 45 years to tell this story, initially because I just wanted to forget the war and get on with making a living and raising a family. The other reason is that, 45 years ago, the American fighting man was not held in very high esteem. No one was ready to hear anything good about the Vietnam War or about the men who fought and died there. This book is less about me and more about the sacrifice, incredible hardships, and heroic actions displayed by the Marine grunts that I had the privilege to treat during battles on the demilitarized zone.
