Timeless Ripple
	Author: Adam Imaan Classification: Poetry Sorry this book is Out Of Print	Brief Description: Timeless Ripple is a heartfelt poetic expression of the emotional and spiritual journey of a patient called Adam, as he tries to come to terms with a diagnosis of Guillain-Barré syndrome, a crippling nerve-degenerating disease, and the changes he has to face, both in his physical capabilities and in the world around him following 18 months in hospital. Adam’s journey is trance-like, one of floating along the passive shores of life and, having inhaled the toxicity of his illness, he is seeking to exhale the raw emotions of a man who in many ways has lost everything, and yet has found contentment and fulfilment by writing profound, sensuous, enigmatic and thought-provoking poetry. Determined to understand and reconcile with intangible emotions such as love and anger, Adam is fighting a personal battle to beat the odds and regain his mobility, but it is a crusade in which readers are invited to share, to gain inspiration and comfort, to be challenged, and to seek a deeper meaning in their own lives.

About the Author: Adam Imaan was born in England in 1973 and holds a degree in Business Administration. In 2001 he contracted a rare neurological illness called Guillain-Barré syndrome, leaving him paralysed and wheelchair bound. If it were not for his illness, such a powerful poetic offering as Timeless Ripple would never have materialised.

A thought provoking, powerful journey through one man's coming to terms with an unfair world and a personal nightmare. Some of the prose need re-reading several times to understand Adam's meaning, but once you do; powerful stuff! Recommended.
Robert Auty, Author of 'Trance Warriors: The Siege of Scarn'

Deep and often brooding, Timeless Ripple offers an insight into the heart and mind of the poet Adam Imaan. The author has thrown away the rulebooks on both poetry and grammar and, free of their restrictions, produced a striking tome of thoughts and emotions captured in time. Each poem is an eerie vignette which reaches out to the emotions. Powerful stuff.

Reading through Adam's journey has been an insight into emotions. A spirit that showed itself in many moods. Beautiful and inspiring, an experience I will dip into time and again.
