Written in the dawn of multiculturalism during the early to mid 1990s, Eidolons of Ecstasy is a ''poetical bildungsroman'' exploring the topics of self-discovery, sex, death, travel, politics and spirituality.The poems - a collection of quatrains, free and blank verse, epics, odes and more - illustrate the reaction to a sudden onslaught of information available to a generation who sought their tenets through movements as grunge, hip hop, the fall of a wall and the rise of the Internet.
