Böcker av Jonathan Bailey

A retired military officer with post-traumatic stress disorder acquired after a combat tour and during a messy divorce returns to the USA after a miserable year living in Israel. Due to assaults on his character by religious people in Israel, he suffers an emotional collapse, falls into drugs and obsession, and encounters phenomena of psychological and spiritual character unlike any vision quest ever recorded in history. A true story of equal parts Catcher in the Rye, Don Quixote, Lolita, and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Let the reader be aware, only individuals of advanced consciousness are capable of reading this book from cover to cover. All others will select some small portion that they will find repulsive and mischaracterize the story without having read it. This story defies common understanding. If you are politically conservative, this story will be too liberal for you. If you are liberal, it will be too conservative for you. If you are secular, it will contain too much religion. If you are religious, it will be disgusting and immoral. If you are a woman, it will be misogynistic. If you are a man, it will be an afront to manhood. The story contains secrets that the powers that be do not want the public to know. If you think you are enlightened enough to read this book from cover to cover, get your copy before it is review-bombed by people who haven't read it, removed from publication, and banned.
