This Mobius Strip of Ifs

In this impressive and varied collection of creative essays, Matthias B. Freese jousts with American culture.  A mixture of the author’s reminiscences, insights, observations, and criticism, This Mobius Strip of Ifs examines the use and misuse of psychotherapy, childhood trauma, complicated family relationships, his frustrations as a teacher and the enduring value of tenaciously writing through it all.

Freese scathingly describes the conditioning society imposes upon artists s and awakened souls.  Whether writing about the spiritual teacher Krishnamurti, poet and novelist Nikos Kazantzakis, or film giants such as Orson Welles and Buster Keaton, the author skewers where he can and applauds those who refuse to compromise and conform. The profound visceral truths in this book will speak to anyone who endeavors to be completely alive and aware.

Reviews

“I have to say that when I got the book I did not make it a priority as I should have now that I have finished reading it. I feel the level of writing and original content is by far exceptional. I am reminded of the BOOK OF JOB in the bible as Job lost everything! In the end the greater blessings came to him. I feel that with each life we endure hardships to learn lessons from them. Yes, even to write about them as Mr. Freese shares. It was a pure honor to read this book.”
– Jackie Paulson

“Freese is a fascinating writer who clearly has a creative philosophical mind unafraid of exploring through fiction and essays any question that matters to a free thinker. He’s refreshing in his honesty about the struggles of a writer and speculative thinker but his resolute brain keeps him going and he draws you into his dedication to bold truth thinking.”
