This book is a manifesto on the human condition. It is told with gallons of truth, and a direct bluntness that is refreshing to the victimized psyche we have trended toward in Western culture for decades.

The story hints at puncturing human dissatisfaction with God and suffering for the almost the entire book, and slams everything home in one fell swoop at the end which should mind-blow every reader out of their staus-quo-like endless loop of wondering, "Why do bad things happen?"

Pain makes you happy for pleasure. Removal of the pain is the removal of yourself.

Be prepared for either a rude awakening or a profound enlightenment.

Or both.
