Publisher's Synopsis
The wandering academy of Josh lasted only one year, from January 2013 to January 2014, but in that short time, Josh was able to share a lesson in parable form for each day. A novitiate of Josh (or perhaps Josh himself) has collected these 365 teachings into a single volume. Future scholars may study this collection as a chronicle of a tumultuous year. Others may seek new truths through the parables' unusual perspectives. The parables address the future and the past (The Parable of the Astrologer's Chart, the Parable of the Prognosticator, The Parable of the Anti-Communist); magic (The Parable of the Supermoon, The Parable of the Mosaic on the Stairs, The Parable of the Witches and the Moon); nature (The Parable of the Submarine and the Kitten, The Parable of the Owl Cam, The Parable of the Children and the Anthill); war (The Parable of the Vikings' Arrival, The Parable of the Two Drunks with Guns, The Parable of the Two Guerrillas Observing an Hotel); love (The Parable of the Passenger on the Wrong Train, The Parable of the Two Gossips' Bet, The Parable of the Two Generals at the Border); loneliness (The Parable of the Potential Suitor, The Parable of the Duke's Son, The Parable of the Unknown Requiem); and much, much more, from 365 collected angles, with 365 collected views. Three-hundred and sixty-five days. Three hundred and sixty-five lessons. Three hundred and sixty-five Collected Parables of Josh.
