About this eBook
Two groups of people, maligned and sometimes despised. Two groups of people living and existing amongst us in the cities we have created to feed our enterprise. We try our best not to see them for they remind us of our failures and mistakes; the thin line that divides us from their fate. To see them is to remember that they too have feelings, just as we do. They have stories to tell, just as we do. Out of one such tale, we find a boy - a boy born out of his time, blessed with an irrepressible spirit and keen intelligence; streetwise and independent of nature. He forms an unlikely relationship with a vagrant who seems to be much more than he appears - a mysterious and enigmatic man who struggles with the loss of his memory; a memory which he glimpses only through powerful, disturbing dreams with bewildering mythological themes. Many think him merely to be a madman. Their story is a strange and unbelievable one picked up and followed reluctantly by two Christian volunteers whose view of the accepted will be irretrievably changed by their experiences.
About the author
With a long journey of years and distance behind him from the point at which he first started on a small island in the Caribbean, to England and finally Italy, the author decided to follow his heart. He turned his hand once again to what he loved most and brought him solace and joy in his youth – books. With his son grown and a new family around him, he graduated from reading into writing – an unimaginable step.
