LOS ANGELES, Calif., Oct. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- To the jeering of a shocked
audience, author Vanna Bonta reportedly addressed questions on national
television that's she's from another world, soon-to-air on the Ricki Lake
Show. A spokesperson described Bonta was willing to address questions, but
the audience was primed for ridicule, not discourse. Consequently, Bonta was
able to reveal only a "fraction of what she knows," and is reluctant to
accept invitations to other shows.
"FLIGHT: A Quantum Fiction Novel" (Meridian House) by Vanna Bonta was as
much a UFO as the genre PUBLISHERS WEEKLY hailed, "Whatever 'quantum fiction'
is, we need more of it." Critical acclaim likened Bonta to Plato and Dante,
Bach and Heinlein, while discussions on the internet emerged about whether or
not the author was an extraterrestrial, like her novel's heroine.
Meanwhile, in Italy, where concepts of "Truth and Beauty" may not seem so
alien, the Minister of Culture Guido Clementi is presenting Bonta's work on
October 24 in a ceremony convening in Florence, the capital of European
culture and Renaissance. President of the Florentine Chamber of Poets,
Otello Pagliai, will open the ceremony. Guest speakers presenting Bonta's
work include directors of the Cultural Association of Florence and professor
Giuseppe Antonio Brunelli.
Vanna Bonta's poetry has won gold medals in Europe, and her work has been
translated into Japanese and Italian. In "FLIGHT," a story about a man who
refuses to accept a world that defines him as nothing more than flesh doomed
to die, the scientific discovery that thought affects matter is Bonta's
premise behind coincidence and synchronous realities.
BOOKLIST welcomed "FLIGHT" as "auspicious" and "refreshing." Bonta describes
'quantum fiction' as "the meeting of miracle and science" and coined
the genre for "the age where science has caught up to fiction and found the
human soul."
The Talking Book Directory reports "astounding" volume of calls to Bonta's
live message is available at 800-796-2665, with box number "4321." The sound
of Bonta's voice may not be that unfamiliar -- it's heard on films such as
Disney's "Beauty and the Beast," "Hocus Pocus," and "Demolition Man." She
has also written for "Star Trek: The Next Generation."
With the new softcover edition of "FLIGHT" winging its way to bookstores
throughout the US, the internal site has become a landing field for more
readers, happy to find their "FLIGHT" "home."
