The Ravell'd Sleeve of Creation

About the Book

Here is a theory that dreams are employed by the Creator of the Universe as a means of monitoring the condition of Earth’s inhabitants. Here are twenty-four poems revealing insights into humanity. And here is a stage play into which the author enters himself as the protagonist and gives himself the name Walter Castlekeep. Consider the three elements --- theory, poems, play --- to be one man’s conception of the ravelled sleeve of Creation, the way it was. The way it is.

About the Author

Hal O. Kesler is an English teacher who has written two novels, six short stories, six poems, and eighteen stage plays, all published by leading commercial publishers. Then came television. The clear promise of success became clouded. The world quivered and stood still. The rains came. And the neophyte was swept away. Was his early success a fluke? Were his later rejections to be expected? Is he, after all, just another sag in the ravelled sleeve of creation?
