Starting with Monday brownies and ending with a baffling button, Kesey and her colleague | |  | | The Nine Lives of Clemenza
The Nine Lives of Clemenza takes us on a heavenly journey to the outskirts of the universe. Here we meet Clemenza, a new soul in heaven, waiting patiently to meet God and decide what form her first life will take. As we follow Clemenza through her lives as air, the northern lights, a bald eagle, and human beings, we learn important life lessons. Roles are reversed and souls intertwine during Clemenza’s many lives, as she learns the meaning and importance of pain, grief, loss, love and passion.
If you were able to choose what form of life you would live, what would you be? i>The Nine Lives of Clemenza/i> explores the realms of spirituality and reincarnation. It introduces the possibility that as complex souls, we choose our lives, thus giving us the ultimate capability of free will. Clemenza starts out as a new soul in heaven, contemplating what form of life she will take to begin her journey. God grants each new soul nine lives, provided they bring back a moral lesson learned. Clemenza is diverse in her choices, exploring every facet of existence from air to the northern lights |
