O knihe

With Greek mythological, Freudian theoretical, Shakespearian, and Jungian psychological inspirations, "Destiny's Stereo" is an artfully abstract literary masterpiece. With hints of modern-day philosophy, psychology, romance, and tragedy, "Destiny's Stereo" uniquely blends free-verse and spoken word poetry with prose storytelling. It depicts one man's struggle with a debilitating mental illness, schizoaffective disorder. It is a psychiatric condition that about one in every 200 people develop during his or her lifetime.

With delusions and paranoia of a person diagnosed with schizophrenia and the sporadic mood shifts of a person swinging on the emotional pendulum of bipolar, the talented acid jazz trumpeter, Mr. Sapieus Holmes, fights to maintain healthy relationships with those closest to him. He desperately tries to return to earlier states of being seemingly sane and secured to his spirituality-when love was all he needed, all he knew and all he had to keep him from living with a false sense of reality.

"Destiny's Stereo" is entertaining, and some might say it is thrilling. However, if you look deeper, you might find compounded within these few pages, the novelette's dual purpose as an allegory. You can compare the parable of Sapieus to humanity's low collective consciousness, society's pathological denial of reality in favor of believing half-truths, and humankind's devastating separation from raw, unconditional, universal love.

"...love is the only thing which can sustain life." - R. Antonio Matta
