The Book of Joseph: A Journey from Purgatory to Armageddon

By: Gallant, David Joseph

A Haunting Vision of One Man's Journey into the Afterlife

After his last breath, Joseph awakens in a desolate world of dust and darkness, a timeless wasteland of fragmented memories. As he slowly tries to piece together the haunting, beautiful, and heartbreaking fragments of the family and life he left behind, he bears witness to the final, cosmic battle between Heaven and Hell. A visionary, spiritual journey into the afterlife in the tradition of Dante and C.S. Lewis, The Book of Joseph is a fusion of apocalyptic fiction, literary spiritual fantasy, and epic prose-poetry.

At once intimate and cosmic, the book invites the reader on a journey through life after death, a meditation on the power of memory, suffering, hope, love, and redemption, and a desperate father's desire to reunite with his family at the end of time.

In this debut novella, the author draws upon his own memories, his research into the Great War, and his Acadian, Irish, and Welsh roots to explore the landscape of spiritual survival and human memory.
