This is the third Jason Akley work that I have had the pleasure to read and all I can say is that Akley is a literary genius. In all three books, Akley incorporates different styles to maximize the influence of his words on his chosen stories. This particular book tells of the dangers of marijuana use by following the ramblings of Akley's writing, as if he were still under the influence. Poems, stories of talking flowers, young girls on adventures with talking animals, murder, random stories of losing jobs and finding jobs, moving, having children, and drawing blood--Crossroads from Damascus is an enjoyable read that can be put down and picked up at any time. Each chapter is a self-contained snippet of memories or stories that is written in no particular order. I look forward to reading another Akley book soon!
