A FORGETTABLE MAN

from my novel A FORGETTABLE MAN

"This is like my journey away from ‘doing’ to ‘being’. This is my passage from caring about reputation, accomplishment, fame, and income - moving towards acceptance. Only now can I admit, step by step in this descent, how I disdained the publishers’ political agenda to keep their audience blinded from the underlying truths; step by step how I detested the puppet like editors - men and women who stood at truth’s door protesting that they were only following orders and if the job was not done by them, someone less caring would be in their place; step by step how I wished to love and respect my fellow citizens but ultimately become disillusioned, seeing them as an inchoate pack, bought off by credit, possessions and simplistic ideas, slowly guided into alienation, bigotry, and emotional dumbness, barking to every irrational, morally dubious instigation of the media, accepting opinion as news, and absurdity as fact. Step by step it has become, for me, a descent towards capitulating to the plague or an ascent towards truth."
