The Guide to the Perplexed Interdimensional Traveler is an anthology of the writings of teacher, artist and philosopher Jonathan Zap. Comprised of previously published articles, essays, brief fictions and poems, art pieces, and self-described rants, The Guide to the Perplexed Interdimensional Traveler is a jete into the past fifteen years of Jonathan's work. Resting on a tapestry woven of the ancient eastern philosophy of the I Ching, Jungian psychology, and their manifestations in and implications of modern man, Jonathan strives to tease out a series of life philosophies that are at once both personal and transcendent.

Much of the work to be published in The Guide to the Perplexed Interdimensional Traveler can be found in varying degrees of completeness at Jonathan's personal website: www.ZapOracle.com




The Silver Spring is an historical fiction that has been incubating inside author Frank Iannella for the past thirty years. A life-long scholar of esoteric pursuits, Frank has earned degrees in Western and ancient histories, literature, film production and musicology from such diverse institutions as Northern Illinois University, the American Film Institute and Oxford.

While traveling from Olympia to Athens in the late-1970s on vacation from his studies, distressing though fortuitous circumstances deposited Frank on the outskirts of Delphi. On a whim he decided to remain for a period of two days, during which time he fasted, cleansed himself in the Castilian Spring, and visited the ruins of the Temple of Apollo to consult the spirit of the Delphic Oracle. While meditating at dawn on a precipice above the ruins, a fugue of lifetimes appeared to him, visions of slave games, ancient architectures, the rhythms of the Omphalus. One of these visions, about the foundation of the Panhellenic Games at Delphi in the 6th century B.C., became the nucleus of The Silver Spring.

The manuscript of The Silver Spring is currently being prepared for a workshop in England in April 2010.
