Ashes - some memories

This book is a sort of memoir, but I didn't write it to aggrandize my separate self but to ask how responsible we should or can be for one another, or for ourselves. We speak of responsibility and determinism and free will and predestination in terms both sociological and theological. But the theoretical question is how real is the labyrinth of differences we imagine or perceive and enjoy or decry. And the practical question is how we can deal with whatever it is. And both questions ask what anyone is.Billy Lee Harman
