Pieces Still Good: A Poetic Reality - Paperback

Four-time author Jack Alan Levine takes his readers on a journey of poetic reality through one of the most intense decades of his life. It was a time fueled with uncertainty, growth, drug addiction, heartache, and searching. His writings emanate from questions like Who am I? and What is the purpose of life? as well as the suffering, pain, realizations, romantic breakups, and uncertainty regarding the course of his future. Jack's intense feelings are reflected in his poetry. Although not all of it was pleasant and he is embarrassed by some of these writings, Jack publishes them all, unedited, leaving nothing out, so you truly walk with him through this phase of his life. There was torment, torture, confusion, frustration, dissatisfaction, fear, and greed, along with a host of other feelings... And then a transition to a better way of life- a life filled with peace, joy, hope, happiness, mercy, love, and kindness. Jack's goal is to inspire his readers, make them think, and most importantly serve as an example. A lot of people look at Jack now and say, "Jack is the happiest guy I know!" But it wasn't always that way. This decade marked a period of great transition in his life and now you can journey back and see firsthand some of Jack's growth...or lack of it!
