Making use of creative titling and only the biblical text, Mellis offers a unique 'harmony' of the four evangelists that enables 'first-time' Muslim readers to experience the life of Jesus as one story by four witnesses. A cassette translation will soon be available in Rif Berber. The Harmony and the Essa y should be available in both Dutch and English in December 2000. Even the nature of our dreams differs. Western dreamers tend to see themselves participating in mere activities.
Semitic dreams center much more around enigmatic symbols.
Mellis treads where Freud left no shoeprint. Muslims and Westerners alike, caught like moths on the web of Mellisian dream analysis, will wonder with Sharif at the treasure hidden at the core of reality's deepest enigma. It is a brilliantly told tale. Jim Mellis has created a captivating, sensitive tool via the storytelling medium. I am happy to endorse it.
