The Osiris Language is a 54,000-word work of surrealist speculative fiction that draws on philosophy, psychology, and fantasy, as well as an autobiographical experience with teenage drug culture in the 1990s. Readers familiar with Descartes' Meditations, Plato's allegory of the cave, or Lacan's theory of language, will recognize their influence. It combines an internal odyssey in the tradition of Hesse's Siddhartha with The Matrix's fight to liberate humankind from an illusory world, The Osiris Language exposes the seductions of the sensory realm we live in and promises seekers of the truth a way to transcend it.
