It reads like a page of international news -- intrigue, betrayal, danger, and characters that you almost recognize."- Edward Squires, Not Quite a NovellaIs there a devil?

The angel Gabriel against Lucifer -- there can only be one victor: The forces of good or those of darkness. And only one President of the United States. Who will that be?

Jermone Grapel began writing essays in the early 90's, this collection being a fractional but representative cross section of an output that is still in progress today. Writing as "Post Consumer Man," he restricts his essays to anything that may be relevant since the dawn of time to the end of eternity. They serve as a therapeutical voice to his objections to the paradigm of our culture and the negativity it is leading us into. Grapel notes that all cultures attempt to inculcate their constituents into someone's narrow minded, self-serving version of reality and this book is his attempt to translate these subterfuges into the truth.
