L writes: I would like to alert you about the imminent “Perceval Press” publication of a non-fiction tome, name of “Skip.” Viggo Mortensen and actor David Newsom have spent several months collaborating on this truly magnificent book, the visual and narrative catalogue of Newsom’s mentally handicapped brother, Skip.
