Sobre IBD

The Adventure is an afterlife voyage like The Divine Comedy. Dante had the law of symbolic retribution and distinct places to put people. The Adventure has neither. If you seek a guiding principle, it’s more or less this: whoever you are, what you’ll get is-exactly and in detail-what you want.

    Can we separate our personal experiences from the world we live in? Fred Pollack has wrestled with this question. In his work, individuals exist firmly in the context of their historical moment. The self and its depths don’t orbit reality but reflect it, and it reflects them; the task of imagination is to capture that shared light. This book will take you on many journeys. Poll...
