Why is the Hawk’s Tail Red? Is a book of faith. Not faith in the conventional sense, however. In fact, it wasn’t until I divested myself of my Christian shackles that I discovered my true spirituality, one rooted in the natural world.The book deals with some of the reasons Western Man has found it difficult to feel harmony with life, a key factor being his inability to reconcile the natural and the divine. It offers proof that there is room for the inexplicable in scientific theory, and points out that a formal acceptance of God would lead to more beneficial advances. This would transpire independent of the creationism viewpoint.The conformist will find little solace in the text. Who am I kidding? He’ll never find the book period. For it takes a swan dive, or better yet, performs a cannonball, into the waters of some of our most cherished institutions.Its content will entice the discontented, those who do not feel quite right when all seems right with the world, and perceive amid all the present hoopla, a slight disturbance within the essence of the collective soul.
