By turns moving and reflective, playful and wise, The Transcendence explores the spiritual growth of Holland Millar; an intellectual man whose life, along with the lives of his family and friends, takes the reader on a journey of inspiration and self-discovery. Life, death, and healing co-exist peacefully here, from bursts of tulips in the sudden heat of spring, to flurries of snow in the cold of the city, to the warm comfort of family at the kitchen table.
Each story and poem contain a spiritually enlightened teaching, revealing the profound and infinite nature of the self.
Budaic and metaphysical, teeming with light and mystical truths, The Transcendence is a revolutionary novella. Its powerful prose and poetry allows us to experience a deeper understanding of ourselves, and our spirituality.

Tripping the Allegory Fantastic is an exquisitely distinctive, ground-breaking book of poetry. It speaks of life, death, rebirth, love, and all that is in-between. This watershed collection takes the reader on a journey that is joyful, humorous, and spiritually insightful. A delicious mix of Free-Form poems, Sonnets, Sestinas, and Haikus pirouette throughout the pages. And, its illustrative art brings forth a mystical mixture of beauty and nature, that is very pleasing to the eye.
Through mild musings, Tripping the Allegory Fantastic inspires us to find a more meaningful sense of self, and of the world around us. Its dulcet verse reminds us to engage more soulfully within, as we dance our dance through life.
