Quote of the Day
"There is no coming to consciousness without pain. People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own soul. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious." - Carl Jung

Review: The End of Mr. Y-Scarlett Thomas

This novel by Scarlett Thomas was a very exciting read. It's about a PHD student who finds a very rare book that is supposedly cursed. She stumbles upon the book in a second-hand book store and from then on the novel revolves around this character and her unexpected journey. It explores the ideas of the intricacies of consciousness, the theories of the beginning of the universe and provides references that allow the reader to want to go and research alchemy, quantum physics and symbolology! =) That said, I recommend this book to anyone who wants another perspective on life and who wants to venture into the unknown.
