Creative Obsession (2nd Ed.)

Creative Obsession is an apomary, a fragmented fusion of aphorisms, apothegms and apologues, which depicts a boiling pot of philosophy with astonishing succinctness.

The fervent protagonist of Creative Obsession is Homer Dogg, “a hardcore traveler, an honest scholar, and an infatuated artist.” The apomary spans Homer Dogg’s fleeting, peripatetic life, while unearthing the primal origins and deep-rooted connectedness of aesthetic, epistemic, and ethic thinking. Creative Obsession celebrates “creative people of all stripes, who live and work passionately, resiliently, and with their eyes wide open.” It portrays philosophic life in broad daylight for the “firstborn of the Third Millennium.”

“Homer Dogg says in ten sentences (sometimes less) what others don’t say in a whole book.” —F. W. Nietzsche

“A literary, aporistic and, if you ask me, successful experiment in harnessing the imaginative powers of abductive logic.” — C. S. Peirce

In just fifty-six eclectic segments (and a revealing afterword), Creative Obsession presents a glistening mosaic of a wide-open, un-universal, neo-philosophic landscape.
