The Osiris Language is a 54,000-word work of surrealist speculative fiction that draws on philosophy, psychology, and fantasy, as well as an autobiographical experience with teenage drug culture in the 1990s. Readers familiar with Descartes' Meditations, Plato's allegory of the cave, or Lacan's theory of language, will recognize their influence. It combines an internal odyssey in the tradition of Hesse's Siddhartha with The Matrix's fight to liberate humankind from an illusory world, The Osiris Language exposes the seductions of the sensory realm we live in and promises seekers of the truth a way to transcend it.

I wrote The Osiris Language with the opportunity that 2020 gave the world. During that time I came to realize that streaming services, music, sports, social media, movies, and books were all other people's accomplishments and talents. I was tired of spending my life admiring someone else's work. I was tired of passively existing. 2020 was a time to engage, reflect, and create something with life instead of merely existing in it. I knew that if I didn't use the time that 2020 gave me, I would never reveal what happened to me twenty years ago in the woods of New Hampshire, and never be the writer I always thought I could be.
