Followed by "At the cafe" written in paris in 2013. Medved's Journal was published by Blackberry Books of Nobleboro Maine A reviewer at the Bollard wrote: "I suppose one would call Medvedb’s Journal a novel, though there’s no plot, hardly any dialogue, and really only one character: Medvedb, a very horny, schizophrenic poet who thinks he’s both a bear and the president of the United States."
