Excelsior Publishing Releases New Book: Physicist-Monk Rejects Salvation to Cast Preacher Into Hell

Leonard Seet's novel Meditation on Space-Time from Excelsior Publishing is launched in November 2012. The book is available at Amazon and other bookstores.

New York, NY, November 01, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Either mercy or justice; either salvation or friendship. Either choice: a flawed solution for a fallen man in a broken world.

Even as Father Lawrence was hearing the stranger’s confession, he dreamed of probability waves, black holes and temporal loops. He wanted to look for his friend, not mess with a penitent’s vices: seducing women, framing rivals, and laundering church-funds.

Except, his friend was pregnant with this man’s child.

If only Lawrence could free himself from his emotional scum… If only he could marshal the courage to polish off his search for enlightenment…Only to discover the secrets inside his friend’s heart…and the liaison between the villain and her…

Meditation on Space-Time, A Novel portrays a man’s struggle to discover his identity in contemporary society, to sacrifice for his friends and to take the road less traveled. For readers who would eat up the hero’s every morsel of laughter and tear as if each were bittersweet chocolate. While sifting through clues to the characters’ true identities and hidden agendas.

“Leonard Seet has left no literary devices on the table to narrate his tale…I was enthralled by the pure beauty of the writing among all the plot points. The scintillating writing is elegant, pure, grownup, originally cast, heartfelt, intelligent… The writing is simply breathtaking… brilliant bit of poetic science… If you prefer intelligently crafted novels, then do yourself a favor and by all means read this unforgettable novel by Leonard Seet: the writing is to die for.” -David Lentz, author, Bloomsday: the Bostoniad

While working overseas as Project Director for a consumer electronics company, Leonard came upon a parchment, which he had drafted in college after booing a novel’s ending. The chicken-scratches had begun to fade, but he succeeded in deciphering the text. The writing was amateurish, but the plot had potential. So, to relieve work stress, he began rewriting the story, along the way learning the art of the trade. Several years later, he resigned from the company to write short stories and literary novels. In the fall of 2011, Leonard attended the Jennie McKean Moore Fiction Workshop at George Washington University to learn from author Tim Johnston, Art of the Story. He is the author of The Spiritual Life.

Meditation on Space-Time from Excelsior Publishing is available in most brick-and-mortar and online bookstores.
