Paul Andrews is a man who isn’t careful what he wishes for. The results are a spouse whose loyalty has been worn to a thread, an adoptive daughter who adores him too much, a therapist who looks the other way while he cheats with his wife, and friends who will do anything for him, including all the wrong things. Experiencing disturbing hallucinations and dreams, Paul is about to lead all of them and others straight into an existential abyss. The radically new knowledge of the human condition that is the result of this, may have been better off never having been known in the first place. 'Loewen’s first mainstream novel presents a shocking series of revelations, not only concerning our ability to know the others, but all the more so, our ability to ignore the oft inconvenient fact that aside from ourselves, others in fact do exist, have needs and rights, and most importantly, share a future with us both here on Earth and perhaps also elsewhere.' - Avinash Pillay, COO and co-founder of Vigilance Digital Media, Inc.Author Bio - Social philosopher G.V. Loewen is the author of fifty-five books concerning ethics, education, aesthetics, religion, social theory, and more recently, metaphysical adventure fiction. He was a professor of the interdisciplinary human sciences for over two decades in both Canada and the United States.

    'Stand down, drop your weapon!' Make me, almighty officer of the peace. And what peace is that which abuses children in the name of discipline, sends poor people off to martyr themselves for an elite nation state, defends policy that allows the rich to get richer and the poor only further poverty, and stockpiles technology - speaking of weapons - that can destroy all life on ea...

In order to make such fantasies real, we must disarm and thence dismiss no less than history along with biography. The perpetrators dream awake. This is how they can commit the impassioned acts of horror upon the others who now appear to them as mere projections, in their way or submissive, it...

  • Her Ownmost Lives
    G.V. Loewen
    'Amy was in tears now, shaking and distraught. Anne’s adorable little head had popped over the side of the pit in dismay, doing its best impression of one of those baroque cherubs except with the weight of an equally baroque fate upon it. Kent’s brows were in the ionosphere and me, well. For a minute, for longer, I thought I had completely lost it, for the body we had just un...

  • Only Love Is Real
    G.V. Loewen
    Only love is real. A noble sentiment. But what, exactly, are its implications? Does it mean that all else is unreal, as in fake? As in fraudulent, as in a lie? Or unreal as in truly intolerable, unlivable, tragic, horrifying? Or is it only surreal, the world a simulacrum of feeling, sentimental and cloying? Or could it be hyper-real, like parents loving their children too muc...

  • The Misplaced Love of the Dead
    G.V. Loewen
    Philosophy/Ethics The ’sacrifice of the intellect’ is today mostly either a convenience or a contrivance. The marketeer assuages the consumer by her own feigned idiocy, the parish pirate invites the listless into his own fraudulent faith. It is exceedingly rare, in my estimation, to discover an authentically latter-day saint. But the ignominious fate of faith in our own time ...
