Papilion

by Brandon Tyler George

“Wanting and wishing and retreating from reality is not enough anymore. My path is destined to be different, to be mobile, to be foggy. Self-doubt is my religion, I practice it daily. These few words spoken are what keep me free.” -Brandon George, author of Papilion “The images you conjure in Papilion are deeply poignant and have the honest melancholy of truth. It almost seems like synesthesia. I’m reading one image but hearing and feeling and tasting another. Your hunger for beauty and a visceral connection with the natural world seem to frame an implacable void that seems to be moving like a shadow across your soul.” -Scott Gregory

I enjoyed this adventure tale of a man who refuses to give up. From the moment he gets to French Guiana he starts planning escapes and doesn’t stop no matter what happens. He tells a vivid story of his ingenuity and persistence in the face of overwhelming odds against him.

4.5 is about right. Someone give it a 5 to bring mine up.

Genius writing. Fantastic story telling. Lacks something.
