“Every truth has two sides; it is as well to look at both before we commit ourselves to either.”
— Aesop
Humanity is far from perfect—it is a simmering variety of emotions, passions, mistakes, and triumphs, all mixed up within the seemingly soporific mundanity of the day-to-day life. Together, the personal and emotional stories of individuals become a powerful exploration of what it means to be human. In “Looking for God…,” readers with an open mind and curiosity will discover the story of one life through beautifully-written prose.
This life story is told with the passion of a memoir that jumps out of the pages, pulling you deep into as heroic as it is tragic, this anthology brings together A.W. Schade’s best works on a highway deep into his psyche, motivations and essential humanity.
This anthology reveals the naked perspective and journey of one the trials and tribulations of a life shattered by the ugliness of an entrenched, unwinnable war in Vietnam to a strong survivor seeking to overcome his PTSD during the relentlessly televised destruction of Iraq.
