All my novels are now officially on Kindle Unlimited. That means you have a choice of over 4 million books to read on Kindle, iPad, or other E readers, including mine! The first month is a free trial.

You’ll be able to enjoy the adventures of my heroes – Joe Belmont, Lara Levine, Jake Nelson, Gina Carlton, Luke Robb, Jennifer Robb and Art Smukler. You read that right. The Man With A Microphone In His Ear is a novella about my first few months as a psychiatric resident.

All are included in Kindle Unlimited.

All are also available as ebooks or paperbacks.

As my grandmother used to say, in a thick Russian accent, when I hesitated before eating one of her treats, “Try it, Artur, you’ll like it.”

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO SCIENCE AND LOGIC? by Art Smukler, MD, author & psychiatrist

Ask Trump, DeSantis, Robt. Kennedy, Marjorie Taylor Green, Kari Lake, Giuliani and one of my personal favorites “the pillow guy”. 

I’d call them sleezeballs (I respectfully use the term in a regression to my Philadelphia roots but I’d be afraid that my Philly friends wouldn’t want their city besmirched); so I’ll just think it. 

Oh yeah. I also wish that the former US presidents, Taylor Swift, and the Kelce brothers would defend democracy. Since I have only several hundred followers, we need all the Swifties, Eagles’ fans, Chiefs’ fans, and logical Republicans and Democrats to educate the anti-science group. 

I am so angry. Maybe a juicy Philly steak sandwich and a mustard pretzel will help?

Let’s hear it for South Street and Geno’s Steaks. Fly Eagles Fly!

Thanks, Art
