Journey to the Source

This is a story of personal redemption in a complex society devoid of personal freedoms where the realities of life would seem to preclude any spiritual dimension. The story, which is divided into four chapters - Darkness; Death; Awareness & Resurrection - is set in an imaginary country called Addeera situated in the Middle East. In a sense, the protagonist embodies the society, and his search for and journey towards personal freedom show that the conquest of freedom comes from within and may be attained notwithstanding the negative forces surrounding him. The book divides naturally into two distinct sections. In the first part the depiction of the harsh realities of life in a society which dictates almost every aspect of existence is uppermost, whereas the second part of the story passes to what might be called the mythical dimension as the protagonist struggles to transcend the petty and materialistic focus of life and find a way forward. Redemption finally comes by the hand of love.Braña, Roberto Rodriguez is the author of 'Journey to the Source', published 2004 under ISBN 9781411613553 and ISBN 1411613554.
