Divine Madness is a true tragicomedy, blending a humorous satire of religion and philosophy with a tragic love story. The title is taken from Plato’s Theia Mania, the divine madness of poets, prophets, and seers. Joseph Colocento lost his fiancée, Mary Malin, in a car accident just before college graduation. He no longer believed in God, yet for years and years after the accident he couldn’t stop blaming the God of his Catholic youth. Then finally the real God appeared to him, a God too big for any one religion, a God too big in fact for any one universe, a God who is not at odds with our current understanding of the vastness of our universe, as well as the infinity beyond it, a God who tells Joseph, “Heaven is not the end of your journey, it’s the maternity ward.”
I am stunned, but I want to be stunned, since I have sworn to you, my soul, to trust you even if you lead me through madness . . . It is unquestionable: if you enter into the world of the soul, you are like a madman, and a doctor would consider you to be sick. Carl Jung (The Red Book, A Reader's Edition, Pages 148 - 150)

The author graduated from Princeton with a BA in theoretical psychology, but claims to be a "hay fever" admit. That's when the dean of admission throws an application onto the reject pile, but sneezes and blows it onto the acceptance pile. He's retired with too many hobbies already, so he doesn't know what put the ridiculous idea in his head not long ago to start writing a novel. He said that while he felt like a Ouija board at times--the novel seemed to just speak itself into existence, that may be a symptom of some other ailment. This item is printed on demand.
