About the Book
A surrealistic adventure set in near-future Europe. Two distinct, but incomplete personalities are brought together during the fulfillment of a Nostradamus prophecy.
The traveller is a man that meets a dream-cast guide while searching coastal Portugal for exotic vineyards. According to this Zen-style teacher he is in search of his incomplete soul. His other 'half' is in France, disillusioned and trying to live out his mid-life crisis as an artist. The two are completely unaware of one another. The artist is circumstantially drawn to England where he meets a gypsy-wicca soul that accompanies him on a pilgramage to Stonehenge, while the traveller banters with the illusive body-changing teacher as he explains the unique state of affairs that needs to be accomodated to bring the souls together and work out karmic debts.
