When Birds Fly In Formation

In a world that often feels fractured and frayed, When Birds Fly in Formation... delivers a raw, poetic journey through one man's descent into chaos and his relentless climb toward healing and hope. Jeremy Bender is a mosaic of past lives, broken dreams, sharp wit, and enduring spirit. Born on the South Side of Chicago and raised in the shadows of trauma, addiction, and existential doubt, he struggles to find meaning in a world that never offered him a manual. Haunted by the ghosts of mental illness, driven by the echoes of Burroughs, Lou Reed, and Watts, Jeremy searches for peace in the noise-and for purpose in the pain. Told through a vivid blend of narrative and journal entries, this powerful novella is a story of resilience, recovery, and the mystery of the mind. It's a meditation on suffering, a tribute to the misfits, and a hymn to the misunderstood. Because sometimes, the path to sanity looks a lot like madness-and sometimes, healing begins when we finally fly in formation."A fictional account of Jeremy Bender and his travels through the subconscious. Borrowing from 60's beat poetry and Carlos Castaneda, it is a tale of fear but also of his recovery and triumph through hope." -John Mack
