Professor Graham Thomas Named Inside CSULB’s Author of the Month

Professor Graham Thomas was named Inside CSULB’s Author of the Month on July 1, 2013. His latest novel Simon’s Journey (Ion Publishing, 2013) is a sequel to his original novel A Long, Lonely Time following the life and misadventures of literature professor Simon Brooke. In Simon’s Journey, Brooke travels the world to escape terrible grief. Based on Thomas’ real-life travels, Simon’s Journey takes the irascible scholar to the burial place of WWI poet Rupert Brooke in Skyros, Greece, then on the South Seas with the island paradise of Tahiti leading on to exotic New Zealand. Thomas enjoys confounding expectations by offering drama mixed with mystery and jeopardy. Click here to read more.
