In this novel two individuals who have just spent time in a psychiatric unit seek a life without drugs, and free from the intrusions of the mental health system. One of them is the narrator, who talks with, and takes advise from, his voices. The other is the mother of a bi-racial boy. The three of them form an unorthodox family, and feel the need to escape the country for fear of the boy being removed by the state. They end up in a community of spiritually inclined anarchists and socialist in Tanzania. Most of the members of this community are ex-patriots from a variety of countries who have found themselves in conflict with their societies. This novel questions the current notions of “mental health,” and examines the issues of class, neocolonialism, and social and spiritual evolution.

    This is an autobiography of sorts. My primary agenda, though, is not to give the reader a coherent account of my life. Rather I use my recollections of an odd assortment of intense experiences as jumping off points for some philosophical and religious reflections. The experiences are always as much about someone else as they are about me - hence the emphasis on I/Thou. It shou...

  • What Can I Say About Light?
    Jay Edson
    This book is about what most poetry books are about. Death, Life, Birth, the Sun, Flowers, Love - that kind of thing. It even has a few butterflies in it. Originally I thought about including a very nice poem I had about a noble Indian looking out toward the horizon with a tear in his eye. But I decided to leave that one out. Also I had a really poignant poem about a lighthouse...
