Book selling giants, Barnes and Noble, and Amazon.com have picked up Bryant H. McGills new book of prose, poetry, artwork, sculptures, and photography for retail sales in the United States, United Kingdom and Asia. Existence journeys into the grand and mysterious corridors of the human condition. Touching on themes of love, birth, death, change, and nature; submerge your meditations into the truths of old world religions, mysticism, Eastern and Western philosophies, and new age awakenings. Listen to the insights of sages and rumors from Egypt, Mesopotamia, Rome, Asia, Greece, Africa and the Americas. Pry at the very roots and constructs of Jungian symbolism and ostensibly abstract thought. Brood over humanitys outward manifestations of a collective and dynamic consciousness that lurks within the aboriginal self; suggesting a powerful struggle between concepts of inner and outer reality. McGill is searching for the delicate fragrances of ancient knowledge, perceptions, and primordial archetypes that like a thin, veiled mist, linger dormant in the folklore, stories, mythology, tradition and art of our human progenitors, all culminating to impress the reader with a sense of our greater purpose in life. Existence is a contextual work which has also been carefully complemented with relevant contributions by other artists, contemporary poets, book excerpts, famous quotes, stories and poetry of the ages. Through this non-linear approach, McGill hopes to offer the common reader a rich texture and discussion from diverse cultural perspectives about the mysteries and meanings of our existence.
