The Fourth Reflection is really a dance - a thought-provoking tango between the romance of the present and the prevalent enchantment of the past. It’s about chance and circumstance, rebellion and redemption, adventure and discovery, experimentation, revelation, and chaos and it’s illuminating opposite. It’s about making calculated leaps and attempting more than a handful of seemingly foolhardy hurdles - a beneficent tome intent not only on pushing the envelope but setting it on fire and mirthfully scattering its proverbial ashes across the balmy, sun-drenched, wind-swept landscape of the collectively creative unconscious - a tantalizing first-person confession that could be used as a kind of linguistic ballast for this crazy/beautiful ship we all find ourselves in. This is a book about breaking rules, shaping perspectives, and running red lights, metaphorically speaking. It’s about being naked in public - soulfully exposed for the sake of starting from the heart of what really matters. Reading, venturing through The Fourth Reflection is a graceful and timeless adventure. LeVine’s lyricism and prolific use of linguistic color paints vivid portraits and inviting landscapes across the screen of the reader’s mind, reminiscent of hand-held mirrors harnessing sunlight for the sake of sending heartfelt messages from reflective hilltops; from writer to reader, traveler to traveler. Al Secunda, Author of The 15 Second Principle The Fourth Reflection is a gorgeous book, as much an act of faith to read as it was to write. Light-footed, aspirational, and sensual, Wayne’s wordcraft exemplifies the idea of the writerly book: reading it is a relational experience with the author, best described as an intersubjective experience rather than a description of any particular time or place. Few authors are this adept at making wisdom so joyful. Dr. Matthew Bennett - www.AeolianCenter.org The Fourth Reflection is a jewel to add to the treasure trove of anyone who chooses to live a conscious life, with purpose and ever-deepening sense of meaning. Wayne Allen LeVine’s timeless reflections and vignette stories go straight to the heart of what really matters. This gifted writer, mentors us on our life journey, through his insightful, sensitive and soulful writing. It is a rare and authentic gem! Mrinalini Singh, Artist
