In this episode, we're diving into the creative universe of Peter Maeck, a man of many artistic pursuits—novelist, poet, playwright, celebrated photographer, and sought-after cruise ship raconteur. From rhymed to unrhymed poetry to intriguing murder mysteries, and the beautiful juxtaposition of
visual and verbal art, Peter's got it all. Today we talk about his work, including his intriguing murder mystery novel, Zänker: Murder is
Academic, and consider how cruise ships, Marcel Proust, and TEDx Talks intersect in his creative life.
Listen in!
“Set in a beautifully rendered Northern Vermont college town, this terrific page-turner centers on the murder of the school’s president, an academic superstar seemingly beyond reproach. But was he really? The characters are a vivid if unsettling mix of locals, academics and townsfolk. One of them is obsessed with the Holocaust. Another is obsessed with homicide–committing one that is. So curl up and get started. Just make sure all the doors are locked.”--Sebastian Stuart, author of The Hour Between, The Mentor, To the Manor Dead, Dead by Any Other Name, and What Wasn’t I Thinking?
