No.

Fictional memoir because I find them to be more emotional and truthful, I can share my insights with the reader.
What is the last great book you’ve read?
I don’t read anymore. I read most of the masters and learned from their insight. I had read so many books until I arrived at “Celine’s Journey To The End of The Night.” I arrived at the end of the search and a different one began. There are many good writers today but I learned their insights long ago, and other than a change of costumes, they reach the same reality, maybe in a different language.
