Lucid Moments and Abject Nonsense - Paperback

by Phillip R. Maples (Author)

Lucid Moment or Abject Nonsense? You decide.

Lucid Moments and Abject Nonsense is a collection of incisive observations about the everyday (and once-in-a-lifetime) experiences of the author. Both fiction and non-fiction (and a few in between), the text pursues wide ranging topics: the worthy ones at length and the unworthy with brevity, and all things with an eye toward revealing life beyond appearances. Occasionally witty, often absurd, frequently serious, and unapologetically nostalgic and sentimental, the writer offers us his unique perspective on common experiences and serves them up full measure: no stone unturned. The essays represent an effort by a writer who writes for the love of it, and for the challenge of articulating the silliness, the sadness and the joy that has been his life to date.
