From 🎨 professional artist and 📚 multi-award-winning and international bestselling author Sol Luckman comes this dazzlingly self-illustrated memoir (packed with over 150 extraordinary images over 238 pages) that will have you alternately bursting with laughter and bursting at the seams with new perspectives on life, death and the curiouser and curiouser cosmos we call home.

✏️ Fellow artist and reviewer for Readers’ Favorite Nancy Tobin had this to say about MUSINGS:

Sol Luckman has eloquently written a witty, insightful memoir in MUSINGS FROM A SMALL ISLAND: EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN. As an art major, I thoroughly enjoyed Sol’s humor and philosophical thoughts on the elusive purpose of art and his expression of life on his small island. His love of bodysurfing and descriptions of the tourist environment at the beach were hilarious and an observation I share, having lived in Florida for many years. I laughed out loud for the first fifty pages. This book is not all humor, though. In this open display of musings by Sol, he bares his soul and reveals some of his struggles with a nasty funk and how he used bodysurfing to overcome personal challenges.

MUSINGS FROM A SMALL ISLAND hit a distinct chord with me. I must be a kindred spirit (or perhaps a spirit animal?). His sarcasm had me grinning as his thoughtful descriptions of tourists’ bicycle etiquette, country music, palmetto trees, politics, cell phones, and life, in general, delighted me because I so agree with him. This justifiably opinionated author is a prolific artist, poet, and mixologist. And as if that isn’t enough, there’s more. The art stands alone. I loved his paintings! The simplicity of his work falls somewhere between abstract, modernist, and minimalist. His work is so good that I left the book briefly to research his website, where I found more than five hundred examples of his colorful portrayals of life.

It was a joy reading the musings of Sol Luckman. So joyous, I’ll reread it. I may even buy one of his paintings.

📖 Think Peter Mayle mixed with Anthony Bourdain combined with John Berendt and throw in a little Henry Miller for good measure. Combining fascinating autobiography, hilarious comedy and inspiring philosophy (plus a handful of tasty craft cocktail recipes 🍹), MUSINGS FROM A SMALL ISLAND is also a stunningly visual coffee table book any Lowcountry lover or contemporary art aficionado would be proud to display. Seen from Luckman’s charmingly eccentric perspective, Hilton Head comes alive in ways few places do in literature or art.

“MUSINGS FROM A SMALL ISLAND is a relaxing and enjoyable read with a great flow of stories—and so many movingly beautiful gallery pieces. Sol’s artworks, interspersed throughout his art-making and island-living anecdotes, are a wonderful gift to the reader. And the art process notes! Delicious! Humorous, poignant, emotionally resonant, consciousness activating. A really lovely experience.” —Megan Elizabeth Morris

“Highly amusing. The writing is intimate and engaging, the artwork beautiful and plentiful. An enjoyable vacation for the mind.” —D. Sinram

“MUSINGS FROM A SMALL ISLAND shows the life of an Artist. A life where the normal or expected is not the way things go or should go. Where the fuel for the artistic engine comes not from a life lived by the rules, but in living in the environment you are in. In this case after finding his life on a small island in the South. A life where the inspiration could come from the neighbors, body surfing, cycling around the island, the weather or just life (but not from Country Western Music). Life is art. And it can be a beautiful picture or words on a page. Or in the expression of a well made cocktail. Grab a good chair and enjoy!” —Andrew Foss

“I truly enjoyed Mr. Luckman’s Memoir and found myself dreaming about living in an island someday. It was fun, engaging and interesting. The author’s art offered MUSINGS FROM A SMALL ISLAND such a unique, special touch. I would gift this treasure to any friend going on vacation to add lots of smiles and giggles to their trip.” —Liliana Cartagena

“Salt air and sun for the mind. Life on a Carolina island that brought me to smiles! Absolutely beautiful artwork, both mentally and visually!” —Regina

“Having read a couple of Sol’s nonfiction numbers, his latest creation didn’t disappoint. A wonderful ride through his life on a small island ... and a bodysurfer to boot!” —Tim Hunt
