Journeys into the Dark

Greetings, readers of the dark mysteries. Prepare to take your next journey into the realms of the imagination, where your logic will be challenged, and your perception will be altered concerning life, death, and reality.Rocky Earl Smith’s Journeys into the Dark is an avant-garde collection of stories and poems that defies explanation and challenges readers’ sense of place, time, and understanding. Each of these strange, mind-altering pieces is designed to reshape your beliefs in social and storytelling norms, shatter your perception of nature and reality, and confuse your very existence.With a bold storytelling structure that derails language conventions like grammar and punctuation, to step into these stories is to open oneself to the expansion of the mind. Whether they travel down roads of philosophy and faith, or they steer toward supernatural incursions into the mundane, they all center around shared themes of muddled boundaries-between the comprehensible and the incomprehensible; between life and death; between existence and non-existence. As Smith’s deep and labyrinthine mind draws you further into its grasp, allow your own thoughts to explore, unravel, and ultimately be subsumed. Prepare your imagination for the voyage of a lifetime as you step into these Journeys into the Dark.
