The Bob Sterry Book of Burglary
Essays, Poetry and Short Stories
There is never a good time to publish another collection of poetry and essays. But then again, there is never a bad time to publish another collection of poems and essays. And so I feel entirely justified and motivated to add my own work to the mountain of words already bending the shelves of bookstores and libraries around the world.In the spring of 2012 I put together a very short collection or chapbook of poetry titled Wing Nut. So called because instead of any traditional binding the pages were secured by a brass wing nut and bolt in the top left corner. Not elegant, hard to stack, but certainly unique, affordable, and curious enough to c…

Über den Autor
Bob Sterry is a voice over actor, audiobook narrator, writer, singer, occasional stage actor and humorist. Originally trained in England as a research analytical chemist, he immigrated into the United States in 1973 working as a wine waiter in New Jersey, a steel yard fork lift truck driver in Connecticut, before spending a professional career in the marketing of scientific instruments and services in New Jersey, Hong Kong and around the world. It was not until he started writing short articles, essays and poetry in the nineteen nineties that his creative talents found an outlet by reading his poetry at open mics. and singing seriously in choirs and extemporaneous groups. In 1999 he and his wife Anne-Louise Sterry, a well-known speaker, singer and storyteller, founded a short lived but much loved faux cowboy wannabe band, 'Anne-Louise and the Cascade Urban Cowboys'. Discovering his on stage talent he took the step to starting his own show of songs and spoken word. His singing is cabaret satire with Broadway and the English Musical Hall grinning in the wings with an occasional nod to the classical style. Recent shows were 'The Bob Sterry Atomic Summer Show' and 'The Book of Bob', and 'A Sterry Sterry Night' with Anne-Louise Sterry. Bob also appeared in the Stumptown Stages productions of 'Ebenezer Ever after' and 'Jekyll and Hyde' and played Satan in Terry D. Kester's production of 'JB'. Adding voice over acting and audio-book narration were obvious steps, and thanks to voice coach Lesley Bailey and recording genius Marc Rose at FuseAudio Design Bob offers his voice to anyone who needs it. Bob continues to write poetry and essays reflecting very much his cabaret style, with excursions into more serious commentary on life, humor and outright comedy. By the way he is passionate about cycling, cooking, language and literature.
