About the Book

“Instant Infinity” is the first installment of a trilogy and a work of fiction based on fact. The story is told by Rose, a recent medical school graduate who is entering her medical internship in the morning. She is a bit anxious and is reminded of a summer when she was 12 & living in the Philippines with her American father & Philippina mother. During that year, while attending summer classes she was given an assignment to follow one of her parents at work for a week & report on her experience. Mom was out of town which left dad; her dad, the doctor. She bemused Why couldn’t he have been something simple, like a gardener? The night before her assignment dad presented her with a “poem” he had written years earlier titled “Instant Infinity” which asks are we the victims of circumstance or are we the architects of it? This is the basic premise of the story. She didn’t understand a word of it. However, the next day on her very first case something caught her attention. It happened so quickly that she feared she’d missed it. She suspected it had something to do with dad’s poem, but it was gone as quickly as it had come. As the week wore on & the cases came faster & were more complex this happened again & again and she grew ever closer to experiencing what her dad often referred to as that fleeting whisper of a moment when everything seems to make sense; “Instant Infinity.”
