"You Can't Come In", Said the Voice April 21, 2014
To me, Heart of Eternity is is more to do with extreme emotions in the one being, than a romance between two characters. I read it as a mix of mystical realism and autobiographical mystical soul searching. I see it as a bipolar study of good versus evil personality traits, and an exploration of the inherent dangers in drawing divided back together.
The prose is richly descriptive, but in places strangely magical, almost as though the words were arriving on the paper through mystical translation from some other language.
The book is well-worth reading, in which we can explore our own internal conflicts between often contradictory personality traits. The ending was abrupt, reflecting well the end of life, when long exploration comes to final rest.
I felt over-whelmed by this book because I was drawn to places I didn't want to go. That is my unique problem, which isn't, it seems, one shared by most readers. When the immediate impact subsides, and there is impact, I must read this book again,and again!
The many complimentary reviews of this book I've read highlight many strong positives so I strongly advise that one doesn't read this review without reference to others.
