Soul Searching

What do an evolutionary biologist, gay psychiatrist, erotic dancer, drug dealer and Colombian latina have in common? Leveraging a unique cast of characters and perspectives, Soul Searching takes the reader on a journey for meaning and explanation given the uncertainties of life. Critical of cultural norms and spiritual bias, the story weaves together an emotionally tolling set of events that at times are light and humorous and, at others, are dark and exploratory. Throughout the search, the main character finds truth in lies and exceptions to norms-and deals with the consequences of his actions and the actions of those around him, focusing on events both controllable and unforeseen. The inability to accept past events in self-reflection and the failure to understand the future in self-trial is a reminder to all of the delicate balance between life, destiny, and the underlying tenants that define our experiences.
