Mirror of Memories

About the Book

This novel was written with reluctance and respect. I as a writer felt somewhat ashamed at first because of the graphic use of language, which I chose to depict the characters and events. But then I realized that I owe it to myself to portray the truth in whatever form of reality it projects. This openness has caused me a lot of pain. Yet I knew when I began to reflect upon the past that remorse would follow. So I gathered my thoughts and prepared to battle both anxiety and solitude because without love, life would be reclusive anyway. So to those who I might offend and to those who I may amuse, I accept full responsibility for the erotic adventure that’ll take you down the amorous path of romance, intimacy, and relationships. It was not my intention to expose the inner feelings of women and men. But if I’m to extract the affection, which lie dormant, then I must bring forth every desirable act, notion, and thought. I hope that you enjoy Mirror of Memories because I am satisfied with the intrigue of being captivated by Reminiscence and Rapture.
