Perplexities: Machinations on Life
Crafted as a compilation of non-fiction works, Perplexities features essays from a unique set of skilled writers who convey in this collection compelling stories of personal growth, accomplishment and persistence.
The word Perplexities might be interpreted to imply that this work covers a potentially confusing array of musings on life. Rather, each piece in this compendium posits a perplexity and – through the author’s insights and experiences – describes how perseverance, positive traits of human nature, or possibly an abiding sense of decency, caring and integrity have overcome an uncertain circumstance.
A moment where one is confronted with oneself or with the human condition, or perhaps with a revelation, difficultly or moment of elation, a vexing point in one’s understanding and experience where habitual insights and learned skills no longer suffice to provide clarity or meaning. This compendium has taken on the mantra offered through this unscientific and non-literary - and very much internally crafted – definition, to set the tone for this tome.
