Life, the Universe, Peckham. One man's search for meaning.

By Ivan H Inkling

The meaning of life is not a secret, nor is it a myth. It's a real question with a real answer with clues provided for those with the tenacity to find them; pieces of a jig-saw that need to be assembled. There are red herrings out there but it's not 42 or Chicken Soup.If meaning can be sought at all where does one look; science? Science suggests that you are a needle in a groove, free will is illusory; you are the sum of your parts. Religion looks like fairy tales and guilt. If you could actually find a bona-fide sage and ask them the way to enlightenment you might get the same reply you get when you ask for directions in Ireland. "If I were you, I wouldn't start from here!" Maybe you aren't in the best place in your life to ask such a question but you are where you are; more importantly, where do you go?I can help. Picture me as an emaciated guru with a rib-cage like a xylophone, heat rising from my sweat-soaked body, robed only in discoloured, saggy under-pants. The only reason I wear clothes at all is because it stops people screaming. Alternatively, I could be a wise old granny spouting comforting homilies, revealing universal truths and stocking tops as I clasp you, reluctant and struggling, to my vast bosom. Better, imagine the meaning of life explained to you by a bloke down the pub; that's what you're going to get. No smoke, no mirrors. This book tells the story of my life's genuine attempt to answer the question "What is the meaning of life?" You need to read this book if you believe in God... and if you don't!(Names and locations have been changed in the personal history to protect the innocent and one or two colossal arse-holes).
