Produktbeschreibung
IGL tells of the rebellion of one man's mind against the death of imagination and the proliferation of heifer dust in the culture of the day. This man wants out. He wants in. He wants it all. He has none. He pulses with fear, quakes with desire. As a story, this man's quest for truth has the narrative excitement normally found in tales of high adventure. It's fast paced action, it's intellectual hi-jinks raise this story above the ordinary. The growth of this man's mind is the story's central theme. But he is what he is in relation only to other characters, all with their own agendas - mentors, lovers, rivals, evil enemies, fools, friends . . . whack-o, harebrained, pathetic, psychotic, loving people, all portrayed with masterly skill. What room is there in this world for truth? What does transcending to a lofty state do for an honest man? Is a man obligated to serve others after he himself has been denied? Can the lonely learn to love, and cleanse themselves of fear and guilt? These are questions raised by this man's story, questions the author has wrestled for decades, questions readers, too, have doubtlessly pondered. The answers amaze.

Autorenporträt
Davey Witmer is 55-ish, straight, probably college educated, with an eye for irony and the absurd. Of two minds on most issues, he struggles to truly understand. After years presenting 2,500 so-called "success" seminars, his belief system is awry. "Things are what you think they are," he insists, thus he guards against heifer dust being put forth by others. He ignores most fears, he bears no guilt. He arranges things to his own damn liking. Years ago, he lost a sales job . . . "too open and honest and frank," the employer said. He was kicked out of law school . . . "too argumentative for a first-year student." He is a solo-running real estate broker and auctioneer.
