"When I started to write this book about four years ago, shortly after the seventh anniversary of 9/11, my primary motivation was psychological welfare; I needed answers to many unanswered questions, for sanity's sake." The Unknown is a fictional book about the main character's struggle through an abusive and violent childhood. He narrates traumatic episode after traumatic episode for survivals' sake, on a quest to find healing, justice, and inner-peace. With an abusive relationship, or relationships, comes inner-conflict and demons which Joe must face in order to become a better, stronger person. Having spent most of his life trekking through peaks and valleys, pits of hell, and dark tunnels, his fight has been for freedom - psychological and emotional. It's an authentic version of Dante's Inferno. Along the way Joe does in fact become a better, stronger person, and no longer wishes healing and freedom just upon himself, but amongst all those who have suffered at the hands of another, be it a family member, bully of some sort, rapist, gang, cult, or evil dictator even. Joe has become passionate about justice - achieving just outcomes or resolutions for those who have been victimized in some way, shape, or form. He's passionate about the destruction of evil, and the protection of good. An entrepreneur spends time looking for solutions to problems which will hopefully improve quality of life. Still thinking in a positive light they focus on the negative - looking at what's not to determine what is - exploring unknown territory. Joe went into "the unknown" for answers regarding the pains that tore him and his twin brother apart before he even knew what the word entrepreneurship meant. "Was it my fault? Was it his? Were my parents to blame? What went wrong? When did things become ugly?" He also went into the unknown seeking the ingredients to a good life, to obtain health and happiness. The Unknown is about a supernatural walk of life. It will inspire, motivate, and surprisingly entertain, all audiences.
