Anna Mitchael’s spiritual quest led her to craft this exquisite collection of short, incisive vignettes. As they unfold, we observe a woman grow from childhood into early adulthood, and through a crisis that ultimately turns into an awakening.

For hearts in search of lasting truth, this collection poses questions to help us find the answer.

The poems concerning those event topics may be a bit biting to those that are not "Red-Pilled." Truth will be the qualifier. A new world is in our near future, and the truth is coming to the surface.
