Who would you be if you could be anyone? go anywhere? do anything? Well, you can! Luke Soloman will show you how. Luke is more than merely self-conscious. He is sui generis, literally believing himself into being. BEGINNER'S LUKE is the first novel in a series of six madcap adventures that, collectively, make up the imaginary life of this lovably irreverent modern-day Walter Mitty. While titillating in the rambunctious tradition of Tom Robbins, Henry Miller and Jack Kerouac, this visionary debut equally impresses as a work of literary art. Luke's signature obsessions with self, sex, satire and slapdash highlight a serious, and life-changing, point: consciousness creates. The point is there is a point to living in the imagination-for only through it can we reinvent ourselves and our world. "BEGINNER'S LUKE to a conventional novel is what an animated film is to a documentary. It is creative, imaginative, humorous and very distinctive." -Reader Views
