Confessions of a Lonely Mystic is a collection of ten short stories. The Lonely Mystic recounts encounters with the paranormal. He witnesses an apparition of the recently departed, and Spirit Guides who come in the form of colorful characters or can assume animal shapes. A parade of departed spirits invades his space as do droves of insects and birds. The backdrop can be Mexico, the North East or family experiences in Poland. The time frame can be recent, decades away or during the Holocaust. God and Spirit find ways to clearly reveal their presence and participation in the life of a Lonely Mystic.
