First sentence: He was once free, but she, the child of tainted seduction and unfettered passion, touched the baseness of his lower self.
Description: "A Disjointed Search For The Will To Live is a plunge into the depths of the unconscious, a meditation on freedom, a New Afrikan Manifesto for liberation, a commentary on terrorism and the criminal justice system, a withering attack on the black bourgeoisie around the globe, an appeal for environmental justice, a prayer for the purification of the land, a powerful indictment of capitalism, a critique of the prison hole we call Western Civilization...and a love story."--BOOK JACKET.
