In 1970 when the Beatles broke up, a humble Brit named Harold Glaub begins to experience remarkable dreams that continue for ten years though he never recalls a one. A real shame for each night our man becomes the fifth Beatle. John Lennon's old mate, puckish bridge-builder Harry helps the group soar to more unique heights. By day Harold doesn't realize the dreams inspire a parallel career for he and lifelong chums Don, Pat & Geoff as a quartet of carpenters.
A history of the world's greatest band (comic turns accommodate Harry's presence) is braided to the smalltime growth of these craftsmen and friends. Each turn the band makes the mates can't but follow. Where both end up suggests only hindsight knows what will matter most. If you love parody, insight, and The Beatles, Ten Visions of the Fab Five poses a whimsical if.

Author, novelist, screenwriter, poet, fiction (and other keywords) David Barlow grew up in the cushy suburban digs of Ridgewood, New Jersey. Graduating up there in his class at Emerson College with a BFA in creative writing he pilgrimaged to Los Angeles for the script business. Skittering through several big Hollywood near-misses David plied a trade in writing copy, PR, and professional collateral. All while honing that edge for prose, verse, etc. Some time now those efforts have been enjoyed from the wilds of New Hampshire.
