Summary

Solitude offers us that other space of thinking, another modality where we can meet different ingredients of perfection. The author is letting his pen engrave what the fuel of the holy history of solitude may inspire, echoing lonesome voices from the past with a never-ending thirst to offer the best in us. Solitude was there for us all throughout human history, but we tend to ignore it. Solus was there for us with a special complex effect inside everyone, with a confusion reflected in our language and reality, a conscious fact that we undergo even when we are not alone evolving many ambiguities: pain and serenity, escape and encounter, anxiety and meditation, refuge and curse, and many more complex states.

A beautiful performance, otherwise a load of crap

What an enigma. Khaled Hafdhi writes like a high school geek, but Frank Meaden's performance is beautiful and enchanting. His talent is wasted.
