It’s a mystical zone. Shades of Van Gogh in a grassy field, Hart Cane jumping off the bridge, Emily Dickinson poised in a Timeless room. Characters of every shape and size, roaming unexpected corners of an airy Universe.

Funny, surreal, surprising, Tinker Toy Souffle is about to reach its tentacles into thousands of unnamed, unknown destinations.

About the Author

This writer has an unusual story and background. This is highlighted by a cause célèbre that culminated with a landmark legal victory, that opened up and expanded freedom of speech for many thousands of artists.

Like “Hope” poster artist Shepard Fairey. A bunch of years back, this artist was able to cite the precedent setting verdict in wilder’s previous case. The end result? Mr. Fairey avoided a draconian (90+ year!) prison term he faced in Boston for street postering.

Notable historian & Harvard scholar Howard Zinn reviewed an early Wilder manuscript and praised it as “Outrageously delightful”. Parts of that manuscript are included in Tinker Toy Souffle. Mr. Zinn winked just before he left this earth, offering outsized complements for wilder’s artful writings and social work.

wilder’s travels as a touring guitarist and singer in a number of indie bands are also colorfully evoked in this volume.
