The Red Speck

The Red Speck is an allegorical journey into the self. At face value, it's the tale of Sophie who awakens to find herself on a deserted beach, with no memory of how she arrived nor any idea how to find her way home. Just barely beneath the surface, however, the book is about transformation.

Woven into the story are a set of tools to help the reader achieve such a goal. Sophie arrives in an alternate world populated by ghosts from her past, a fallen angel with a slow Southern drawl and a quick temper, as well as a beautiful woman who may, or may not, be the mother of all creation.

Aided by a handsome young man and a band of demigods, she embarks on an esoteric adventure to correct psychological damage accrued over the course of a lifetime. Sophie needs to move forward and conquer her past in order to create the future she desires.

The book was written by Stacy Conde in 2012 as an allegory in the style of magical realism. The Red Speck is available on Amazon.com, Barnes
