About the Book

Dance Around the Treasure Box is a novel, which was written at the end of the Vietnam War years and rewritten in 2013-2014. It focuses on the ups and downs of a Vietnam War hero, Fred, readjusting to the United States, finding a job in the Greater Los Angeles area, taking care of his free-spirited wife, and then facing an unexpected child. Even though the novel has some flashbacks, it mostly deals with a short period of time, a couple of months or so, and focuses on conversations with Fred or about Fred.
