HENDERSON, Nev., June 5, 2009 — According to author L Jeffrey Young, he should have died at least two dozen times. These trials, coupled with Young’s witty but deep look at life, make “The Lark, the Lemming and the Owl” (published by AuthorHouse) the zany and clever read that it is.
Through tales of interesting moments in life, Young explores the true meaning of our existence. Are we connected? Is God in us? Why does God allow suffering and devastation? Young argues that the world is immersed in “oneness” yet we humans are all too often oblivious to this connectedness:
“In spite of our heartfelt hope and charity, humanity continues to spin its wheels … If we only realized the perfection of creation and accepted the prospect of our immersion in oneness. And had a lark in the process. ONENESS PREVAILS. We have only to accept its possibility.”
“The Lark, the Lemming and the Owl” is no ordinary philosophical journey. To show he’s not an ivory-tower intellectual, Young takes us on a trip down memory lane, recalling sometimes hilarious, sometimes heart-wrenching tales from his life, focusing especially on his world travels. The scope of the book goes beyond the ordinary – unlike anything a reader has ever experienced.
