Where the Heart Meets the Sea: A Novel
Free: Zenith’s Peak: Journey of a Light Shaman Book 1
This is not a book about trauma. It is a book about what is born through it. Thaddeus Harold Pierson is a disabled, queer orphan raised inside institutions that alternately erase him and weaponize him. His survival requires a splitting of self: the dissociated observer during confinement, the intimate narrator when free. Through shifting narration and bilingual prose in English and French, Zenith’s Peak mirrors that fragmentation—inviting the reader into a consciousness attempting to reassemble itself. When Thad escapes to Montreal in the early 1980s in search of a shamanic anthropologist, his journey feels like spiritual ascension—until he wakes years later in a hospital, missing time, on trial for acts he cannot remember. A freakish man named Walter appears only in the mirror. His mother speaks from the thin places between worlds. And his final courtroom monologue forces the reader to decide whether Thad has gone mad, or simply stepped into a frequency society has no language for.Zenith’s Peak is a visionary literary novel about madness as a rite of passage, language as a code technology of consciousness, and the fractal journey of becoming whole. For some, this book will be fiction.For others, a transmission. Free on Kindle.
