Hello again, Sylvain! I'd like to ask you if the Professor is interested or at least aware that Dante's Comedia is interpreted by some scholars in an esoteric way? Recently I've listened to a few Italian specialists talking about it in a very interesting way and that made me thinking of the Professor's classes and lectures and how much I'd like to attend some of them.

Hello Teo,
Thanks for your question.
Yes, there is that interpretive movement in Dante studies. And sometimes you'll find a passage that scholars interpret in multiple ways.
The debates are very interesting and usually stimulate further research.
I've been working on a lecture the Professor is giving in book four, "Gabriel's Promise." I hope you'll find it interesting ...
Thanks again for reading, SR

Why the deviation into the paranormal in a romantic and intense storyline? I understand the existence of paranormal existence ... having a few encounters personally ... but, reading paranormal stuff can trigger unwanted problems for many ... at least, for a book that wasn't paranormal (intensive, romantic and poetic) the deviation was quite unexpected ... Why did you opt for the paranormal side in the spin-off series?

SR, GOE does a great job in working Steps 1-11 throughout much of the book, however, I am looking at Step 12: Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to other alcoholics and practice these principles in all of our affairs. Is Gabriel able to work the 12th step? He needs to in order to maintain his sobriety. What do you think? Thanks very much, Marilyn
