PERENNIAL OBSESSION

Sex, sex, and sex. And a mere 2 billion people when I was born are now approaching 8 billion. In a little while, a few more billion... thanks to our propensity for sex, and we shall eat everyone, and everything, and then, promptly we shall all starve to death. Not only the Homo Stupidus (that's us) but all flora and fauna. And all this because of sex.
    Ain't we got fun?
    And to encourage this fate the brilliant authors and authoresses continue to plaster semi-naked bodies on their book covers, and fill their pages with explicit sex. They want to do their part in the destruction of what's left after we got kicked out from Eden. No, not just Adam and Eve. Eden, like everything else, is a state of Consciousness. We also call it life. It has nothing to do with sex. The Individualized Consciousness that embodies itself is immortal. The product of sex is not. And soon, there will be no more bodies for the Consciousness to use, to add to the diversity and enhance the Phenomenal world. All... thanks to sex.

Yet, it doesn't have to be that way. We can start growing up. We can start remembering who we are. Or, at least, we can start our search for liberty. For Freedom. Freedom from obsession with greed, stupidity, and... sex. And that's what Marvin Clark discovered. 

***
 
For many years, Marvin Clark, a man as shy as he was retiring, assumed a cloak of invisibility to protect himself from vicissitudes of everyday life. The only escapes he enjoyed were into the inner worlds of his own making. Then, a beautiful woman entered his drab reality. Suddenly, the protective ramparts he'd erected so carefully began to crumble. Would she set him free?
    There is one way for you to find out. The book is a love story.  No, it is not about sex. Find out for yourself. Here are a few excerpts of what others have said about it. Let me know what you think. Please.

A classy read, fresh as they get!
...The originality of this tale will stay with you long after you finish the last page and so will the characters. ...Marvin and Jocelyn are so well written, they climb off the page into life and won’t soon be forgotten. ...This book is brilliant. Very well done, Mr. Law. ...I’ll be checking out your other books very soon.

Challenged Preconceptions
...Marvin Clark—In Search of Freedom will really exceed all of your expectations and impact you personally in dramatic ways. ...The author, Stan I.S. Law is truly one-of-a-kind, intelligent, and a master of literature. ...He has set the bar for what a romance novel has the potential to be.

Amy Taylor USA, 5.0 out of 5 stars 
Timeless Love Story 
...Marvin Clark—In Search of Freedom is a beautiful love story full of all the budding thoughts and feelings that go along with falling in love.
...Author Stan I. S. Law has brilliantly conveyed a timeless love affair with such precision and delicacy that you can’t help but to feel part of it.

And many more reviews. MARVIN CLARK—In Search of Freedom is unlike any other romance. Or as Adam Kerry put it: “As I am sure is true for most men, with the exception of Romeo and Juliet, I'd never read a ‘love story’. I always assumed this was strictly a woman's territory. I was wrong. I loved it.”
    So might you.
    And boys and girls. And men. And women, of course.
