Earth: A Love Story

Lyrical, terrifying, pitiless, and unflinchingly honest—Robin Lassiter illuminates the unfathomable mystery of anomalous experience and the genius of the human spirit.—Ralph Blumenthal, author of The Believer.This book is a fusion of what is already all connected, a spiritual and genetic mixing as profound as it gets. In these pages writing becomes a kind of occult practice becomes a kind of healing. The human is here and not here, both watching and suffering. We are not who we are told we are, the author reveals to us. And this all has something to do with death, which is not what we are told, either. Time to wake up. Way up.—Jeffrey J.
