Bill Charland reports that his ninth book, a novel, will come out this spring. “Tenuous State: A Tale of Survival in the West” probes the real world of higher education today in an academic adventure story. The publisher is Sunstone Press of Santa Fe. “It is the saga of a young, green dean with a tumultuous love life who finds himself in a perilous fight. It is to save his historic, half-Hispanic university from covert forces out to destroy it. A story of empowerment, the novel takes on the current world of higher education—where tradition is history, and battles for integrity and survival are fought every day.”
