Secrets of a Telephone Psychic

In this truly one-of-a-kind book, New Age rabble rouser Frederick Woodruff pulls back the curtain and gives us a funny, irreverent, and spellbinding peek at one of America's favorite pastimes: consultation with telephone psychics. In over twenty fast chapters Woodruff zig zags from comedy to pathos as he recounts his audial adventures with a wild cross section of Americans--and their larger than life fantasies and dilemmas. Who calls psychics? Who answers the calls? What does our culture's fascination with magic and divination symbolize? Does astrology really work? And how did Mr. Woodruff transmogrify from a fourteen-year-old teenage pagan into one of America's most talked to and beleaguered psychics? It's all here, buzzing and humming with the overamped frequency of a short-circuiting fiber optic cable. Includes "How To Call a Telephone Psychic and Not Go Broke."
