New York: Celebrated performer, Ian Finkel (www.ianfinkel.com) is regarded as the World’s Greatest Xylophone Virtuoso. He has appeared around the world and has written for such stars as Michael Feinstein, Sid Caesar, Ginger Rogers, Tito Puente, Larry Gatlin, Martin Mull, Madeline Kahn to name just a few. Expanding his creative reach beyond the musical stage, Finkel has taken his off-beat sensibility and keen ability to craft wonderfully dark comedic tales and partnered with the Dutch  publishing company More4Many to release three works of fiction. The books include Three is the  Charm, Sex Stories My Wife Told Me and Transmutation Blues and are available online and in selected indie book shops across the country.

“Ian Finkel is a truly unique character as a performer and as a writer. His stories are hilariously off-beat, eccentric, and disturbing, but above all, they are absolutely captivating. His quirky tales are unclassifiable, but are very  twisted, surprisingly touching and completely fun to read. We are very excited to release these three books and look forward to a long relationship with Mr. Finkel.” said More4Many president, Denise Notermans

Following the lives of three working girls, Three is the Charm is a powerful and brutal account of street life in 1950’s New York City.  Humorously told,

Three is the Charm is a love story packed with graphic sex and violence.  www.threeisthecharm.com

Harvey and Janie are the perfect couple. They have been married for years in sweet simplicity, raised a family and are now enjoying retirement. Suddenly Janie begins writing stories of the foulest nature, spinning Harvey’s life into an ugly vortex as he finds it impossible to believe that stories of such horror and degradation could come from someone as sweet and loving as his Janie. Part The Exorcist and Part 50 Shades of Grey, Finkel’s Sex Stories My Wife Told Me is a delightfully deranged tale of meeting someone again for the first time. www.sexstoriesmywifetoldme.com

A man goes out into the world to collect stories of other folks asking the question, “How did you get to where you are now?”Transmutation Blues is a collection of twisted, funny and quirky tales of change that depicts the most honest human conditions. www.transmutationblues.com.
