Description
Extraordinary Naked is a story that journeys through the power of the human mind. While the events described are fictional, they are based in large part on the real-life experiences of the author. The eccentrics of the world, and how the mind can manifest itself in different times and places, proved to be a true inspiration to him as he crafted this work. The close reader will also see the clear mark of the insights of Sigmund Freud, a true pioneer into the study of the mind. Freud's work served as a great influence on my grandfather throughout his life and shaded the lens of how he viewed the world and his own experiences. The Bronte Sisters, especially Emily and her classic Wuthering Heights, were another source of inspiration for this masterclass in storytelling. Just as Bronte was able to develop characters of rich complexity and internal struggles, so too does Morales successful do here. From the likes of Miguel Prieto to Domingo Soto, the curious lives of the men and women of Extraordinary Naked are awash in the conflict between good and evil that pervades the human psyche.You will tremble with fear and burn with passion. As you read this story you will laugh and you will cry. You will witness the triumphs and failures of human relationships. But most importantly, you will learn to grasp the strange and incomprehensible power the human mind can employ. Always remember to not let the gift of the mind you have been given go left to waste.
