Synopsis

If you knew you had a choice to make difference, what would you do? When people start to question the world, their lives, their achievements... Something starts to happen. Choices weaves together five separate narratives of people of different ages and backgrounds coming to a realisation that their lives have been unfulfilled. They begin looking for something to bring them the greater happiness and purpose that they desire. This book illustrates the power of our choices. That experiencing suffering or joy can result from the choices we make, and that the decisions we make move us towards one or the other. ‘Choices is an exceptional work. The central theme of the work is as the title indicates: “Choices,” the faculty that enables the human being to choose between different paths to follow, which is at the same time a great privilege and a huge responsibility. In each of the different episodes narrated in the work, the characters featured face a situation that will lead them to take an action on which their future depends. The choice is always between descending or ascending that is, sinking even deeper into materialism or rising to higher levels of spirituality. I do not believe it is possible to read this book and to remain indifferent.’  Antonio Velasco Piņa (Author of Regina and Los Siete Rayos)
