Product Description

Tony Antonelli can't explain why he attacked a total stranger fully intending to kill him. He suspects 'genetic memory' triggered his action; perhaps he's inherited an ancient hatred. Determinedly he journeys to Italy, back to his roots, in a desperate search for the elusive answer.


From the Publisher

Tony, an architect-engineer, is suddenly and inexplicably overwhelmed with antipathy for a total stranger. He attacks the man. Without the intervention of Tony's co-workers, the man would have died.

Tony is badly shaken by what he has done. He lacks even a hint of an idea that might explain it. He knows nothing of himself that could possibly account for the sudden surging rage, the overpowering urge to destroy.

He is certain of only one thing. He must discover what triggered his actions else face a grim, unpredictable future. Doctors can not help. The answer lies within himself. And he must find it. Alone.

Convinced he must search in the distant past, that "genetic memory" is more than the idle speculation some unraveling our genetic structure claim it to be, Tony returns to his earlier roots in Italy. In this journey, lies the tale, a journey many of us take in one way or another.

Tony looks without. And within. But in the latter there is none of the psycho-drivel that seems so common. Instead, he examines all about him with total honesty, then seeks to attune his inner being to what he discovers.

Who has not asked right out loud, "What made me do that?" Nick Taddeo seeks to answer this question for all of us in "August In the Mind." While there is no attempt here to provide definitive answers, what Tony discovers may also relate to you, your concerns, and your fears.

This story will haunt you into the foreseeable future. Bits and pieces will linger indefinitely. And some may help you find a better way.

Nick Taddeo personally is tightly bound to his Italian heritage. He has walked the streets of which he speaks. He knows how they came to be. And he has examined each with care. Thus his narratives bring alive both the Italy that was and the one that is today.

"August in the Mind" by Nick Taddeo is a must read for those seriously interested in people, the world about them, and all within that we have never even glimpsed.
