Travel journalist and novelist Lee Foster's new literary book explores his conviction that our time is both the most wondrous and also the most horrific time ever to be alive. Looking at his own life as a typical modern person, Foster considers the polar positive and negative aspects of modern life, both from a mundane and global perspective. With sufficient imagination and balance, Foster believes, a modern person can cope and flourish.
