Inhaltsangabe

A globe-spanning treatise on spiritual philosophy disguised as a celebrity, sex, and drug tell-all, Breakdown is the real-life journey of a young man who rejects the status quo in search of a deeper, more meaningful truth.Haunted by a repressed, traumatic past, Greg DiStefano lives a fast-lane existence among the famous and infamous that stands upon his secret dungeon. Swept by a string of serendipitous events into an action-packed adventure through the Middle East and India, he is led to unfathomable depths of self-discovery, and an inescapable destiny which he could never imagine. Troubled by America's soulless culture, internal conflicts, and the meaninglessness of his privileged dream job, Greg breaks down. Stripped of everything that defines his identity, only a terrifying choice that cuts against the grain of human instinct can save him.Through dizzying celebrity heights and the depths of self-deprecation, soaring Himalayan peaks and the despair of addiction, Breakdown explores the critical flaw in Western throught while burrowing toward the meaning and purpose of existence. While blending elements of religion, philosophy, metaphysics, and sexuality into popular language, this coming-of-age tale provides hope and an opportunity for transformation.www.breakdownbook.com find yourselfWinner, USA Book News AwardsWinner, Writers Marketing Association's Fresh Voices Book AwardsFinalist, ForeWord Magazine Book of the Year Awards"Best Spiritual Memoir," InSight Out Book ClubRunner-up, DIY Book AwardsHonorable Mention, Hollywood Book Festival"A dramatic and inspiring post-modern adventure story."-Andrew Cohen, What Is Enlightenment? magazine
