Book Description

April 5, 2002
Each one of us are murders of free will. Each one of us are rapists of time. We each seek to forge a memory- a lasting impression, upon the fabric of the void. I find solace in my memories. Of times long past and times to be made in the future that I remember yet I do not forget. It’s all Maya and we are repeating a fruitless, useless, songless tune to the dance of a hapless god. This book is dedicated to escape and to freedom, and, ultimately- for us to achieve our own peace- whatever and wherever that may be

About the Author

Miss Nelson began writing when she was 4 years old. Her first story was of a Cat and Mouse- which she still retains to this day! She began reading and writing at an early age. Her grandmother taught her how to read at age 3 1/2..and her first books were classics such as Bram Stoker´s "Dracula". Due to her early exposure to literature- she was deemed "Talented and Gifted" and excelled in English and literary fields in school. She wrote for literary magazines in college and was a weekly columnist for "The Bullet" at Mary Washington College as well as wrote for Young Virginians for the Richmond Times Dispatch. Although she did not pursue writing in college and decided to pursue Art and a graduate degree Psychology- her love for the written word still remains to this day- and she expresses this through her writings that have been published by IUniverse & Xlibris

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, August 9, 2008
I came across this book on Sebor Absinthe's website. It was listed as their #1 choice for Fiction.
I became immersed in it's pages- it drags your soul in and does not let go until it's final page!

It is a very interesting read and glimpse into the "Spirit" of the drink: ABSINTHE
