Title: A common man in an uncommon reality
Review: Frank DeMarco chronicles his travels through a life of personal discovery. This is a highly personal account, and most times one is likely to feel he's reading someone's sock-drawer diary. Frank is genuine and direct. He wastes no time getting to the point of the work--which is to aid others in self-discovery through example. His is a Castaneda-like tale without the metaphor and mysterious characters. Don Juan is the concrete, accessable Robert Monroe. The forces he encounters are similarly real. This is not a tall tale, but a travelogue offered to anyone who would like to follow in Frank's muddy footsteps. Like many works of this nature readers will be polarized by it. Most will either adore it or loathe it. One doubts there will be little in between. It's impossible to read the story without drawing parallels with one's own life. Whether you want to see these or not will play a large part in dictating how you feel when you put it down.
