Middle Aged American Tao

A novel of our times. Riddled, as all our lives are, with menial tasks and purposeless drives, this tale casts a different light upon our reasons.Aside from the cheating wives, self-crippling Adonis, urine-phobic land baron, outpatient psych patients next door, wonderfully erotic intimacy, and a drug addict son tied up in the basement, this is a story about Alex. Recently early retired, he wakes one morning from a dream of developing a new Tai Chi form, and from that moment on nothing else matters. Patterns set up from early childhood loom. With years of Taoism and Tai Chi, we perceive through Alex a fresh take on the madness of our lives, and silliness of our convictions.
