These two novellas are strange companions indeed. Wimble Lord depicts one man's fight for survival while the world around him is on the brink of extinction. What sets Wimble Lord apart from other 'end-of-the-world' sagas are his mad recollections of a futuristic civilization long since past. Emerging from his bomb shelter, he is confronted by a desert that bears a jungle of giant fruits and swarms of migratory, other-worldly insects. Pieces of Humanity is part fantasy/fairytale straight out of Mozart's opera, The Magic Flute. 'The Magic Flute' himself carries the reader on a flight through time that unlocks the mysteries of existence as he is pursued by protagonists evE and Trash McKay in the hopes that they alone can possess his eternal secrets.

Absurdity, social realism, and the in-depth examination of the human condition are but a few of the themes that comprise the contents of the seventy-three short stories breathing menacingly between the covers of this book. Humor attacks surrealism on a landscape sun-saturated with saintly thought and intense clarity - creation's first simple act of pure effervescence getting drowned.

The poems in this collection comprise a unity of poetic imagination. The connective tissue between them is a union of both time and space. Poetry's aim is to cast light on human experience, and even though several of these poems consist of inanimateness, each poem is still endowed with a familiar spirit, a whispering demon, a meditated plan of action.

"The dust roamed, and in its midst, the code ..." Thus begins the revelations of Occultus Liber, an epic tale of the journey of civilization through time and space.

After a nuclear holocaust, the survivors of a mental hospital struggle to find some sense of order among the chaos. Imprisoned within the hospital itself, a particular group of crazy inmates attempt to locate the legendary Z Room which offers the only way out of the intricately mazed institution.

Frank and Earth Goddess RoseEmerald, are headed for the Oregon Coast in their automobile named Hardy, when they pick up a hitchhiker who claims to be Jesus, and crash their car in front of a Strange Lonely Church. Taken in by the mysterious Keeper, Frank and RoseEmerald become entangled in a historical battle between religion and mysticism whereby they transcend time in a magical mystery tour of thoughts, dreams, fantasies and emotions, and experience the Final Vision. Part hippy counterculture, part detective novel, part Civil War Epic, part Spiritual Odyssey and part Call of the WILD (the novel includes a talking dog named Fast Freeze), RoseEmerlad is, underneath it all, a love story that embraces the eternal themes of sacrifice, salvation, and sainthood.

Clifton and Tricia Long are on Holiday in the Black Forrest of Germany when they become victims of a terrorist attack. The novel, within a novel, follows Clifton's attempt to survive after witnessing a horrific incident, in which he discovers that existence probes deeper than physical reality, and that there is nothing more misleading than simple innocence. The novel within a novel consists of excerpts from a manuscript Clifton had been working on prior to his trip to Germany. Within it, he conceals elements of his former life, even though his 'novel' follows in the footsteps of a sadistic murderer. Delusions explores the nature of evil both historically and personally, and conjours up the notion that, subconsciously, we are all susceptible to darkness.

Brown has become tramatized by the random violence of the city and the intense alienation of human existence.

It is only when Brown's environment changes and brutality takes on an immediate cause, that he comes to realize the essence of being a human being in the world.
