A Thousand Years in the Body: A Novel of Love & Transcendence - Paperback

by Edward Bruce Bynum (Author)

THOUSAND YEARS IN THE BODY A NOVEL of LOVE & TRANSCENDENCE In a radically new expression of the romance novel, A THOUSAND YEARS IN THE BODY, a luminous spirit is conjured forth in blood and flesh by the author, speaking and manifesting as Poetry herself. Together they travel the world of relationships, dreamscapes, conflicts, and passions, both between themselves and with remarkable others. Poetry's soul at times appears as maiden, mother, and crone; at others as both intimate supportive ally and world-weary critic. Beauty and consciousness along with science itself are the battlefields on which they and others, historical and more mysterious, work out their destiny. At the end the reader is swept into a stunning new vision of reality. Poetry herself is the next story demanding to be written; a living force carrying her own momentum; a satellite, freed of earth and gravity, gliding gracefully into the distance.
