Fiction. BURNT UMBER is a novel about two unforgettable artists--the German painter Franz Marc and the American sculptor Harry Baer--who struggle to express their personal vision of the defining moments of the 20th Century: the trenches of World War I, the liberation of the concentration camps, the turbulence of post-WWII Paris, the Civil Rights Movement, and Viet Nam-era Berkeley.

Holocaust survivor Mendel Traig meets the Binyans, Jewish Indians living in the California desert who claim to be descended from King Solomon’s sailors. Is the fantastic tale of the family’s ancient journey from the disintegrating Mayan culture of the Yucatan to this northern “promised land” true or a myth? The Cold War is raging. Mendel falls for Sarah Cavanaugh, the engineer responsible for a controversial tower under construction on a sacred site. If completed, the tower will communicate globally with the American nuclear submarine fleet. The Binyan patriarch and his brilliant son are in a generational conflict over the tower and the son’s future. Spiced with magical realism and mysticism, The Seed Apple (a follow up to Greene's Lost and Found) is a mysterious, funny, moving novel by a critically acclaimed author.

The Lev Effect is a sequel to a critically acclaimed novel, with universal values, Lost and Found. The Bolton, PA Jewish Community converts a disused old people's home into a boarding school and hires a Russian refugee to run it and the retirees to staff it. The old residents love the change, but things get dicey when the director admits a Palestinian boy, schedules Palestine National Day and a dinner fund raiser for a Catholic homeless shelter. The family that endowed the place 50 years ago sues to get their trust fund back. A teen age hacker manages to find alternative funding by manipulating resident's pension accounts. An enemy on the faculty tries to get the director deported. When the director dies some people think that he was the Messiah. The Lev Effect is full of warmth, humor, and the celebration of the extraordinary in the ordinary which should appeal to the faithful of all religions and iconoclasts alike.
