  • The Last Number and Other Stories
    Angelo Letizia
    Infinity, progress, the irrational, and loneliness. What exactly are these abstract ideas? Perhaps the human mind can conceive some vague notion of these things, but the human mind must feel these things, experience them on some existential level. One man’s truth is another man’s fiction and vice-versa. And one of the ways to make these ideas more than abstract words is by ref...

  • There is still beauty here
    Angelo Letizia
    FOREWORD: Is there beauty in a grey sky? In an empty field or sewage plant? There might be beauty in these things, in the waste and bald tires, in the forgotten byproducts of our contemporary life.

  • Toward the Real
    Angelo L. Letizia

Toward the Real is a wonderfully complex collection that is engaging, immediate, and re...

And if a society does fail, how long does it take? Do its people know they are failing? Did the Romans know they were in decline? What actually constitutes a failure? In a wider sense, this might sound like end times or end of...

    Trees, human beings, all of life is locked in a battle with entropy, with death and eventual chaos. Thus, I have aptly titled my book 'The Battle for Existence.' I trace the beginnings of the universe through history until the present day. I do not simply echo creation stories or slightly revise them.
