In a crumbling West, a man&#8217;s gift of foresight has been taken. A government physicist tries to restore it, leaving him with bizarre dreams. An Army psychoanalyst, two women, and strange occurrences add to the chaos. Whispers of a Freemason-built lighthouse hint at a greater conspiracy. Can the man&#8217;s dreams hold the key to restoring hope? Drawing on the legacy of Abram Tertz, the novel delves into the unsettling changes in our society and the loss of confidence and optimism in the Western world. The protagonist&#8217;s journey mirrors this theme, as he gains and loses prophetic wisdom while navigating through a shifting landscape. The struggle for universal truth and understanding is represented through his inner turmoil and constant battle against centrifugal forces. Ultimately, his goal is simply being present in each moment. And perhaps, in the end, that is all that truly matters. A provocative read that challenges readers to confront the impossible and contemplate the strangeness of our existence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">A Whirly Man Loses His Turn&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Mosby Woods<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Whirly-Man-Loses-His-Turn-ebook\/dp\/B0BH194HHX\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Whirly-Man-Loses-His-Turn-ebook\/dp\/B0BH194HHX\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Buy now<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pub date July 12, 2023<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ISBN 979-8772032572<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Price $13.99 (USD) Paperback, $3.99 Kindle edition<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A thought-provoking work of imagination and accomplishment.
