Here's a new interview I did with Chris Harrison (author of The One Rule of Magic and We Are Toten Herzen) over at The Opening Sentence, where I discuss writing, Egypt, the 11:11 Phenomenon, gnomes and more!

Reviewers of the book have said:

“If there's a NeoBeat movement at hand, let this great tale be its On the Road.”

“If Rick Steves conducted a travelogue down the endlessly winding streets and alleys of Egypt with the help of Paul Bowles it still wouldn't be as insane as The Road To Purification.”

“It is an extremely original book; even the way he writes is highly original – as if he has invented a Joyceian language of his own.”

“The descriptions and imagery conveyed gives the reader that proper heady feeling of being amongst the settings, the smells, the hustle and the hash.”


And here’s the book blurb to tell you more:


When Mad Harry spontaneously books a flight for Egypt, he doesn't know that he's about to embark on a fate given pilgrimage.
In fact, he's not even sure why he's going, or what he's going to do when he gets there.
All he knows is he's got to get away.

Guided by signs in numbers, names and otherworldly encounters, Mad Harry's trip often seems to be a magical manifestation of his mind.

A crazy headed, hassle driven, sleep deprived, dope smoking journey with non-stop tests of trust and temptation.

A holiday this is not.

This good humoured true story is told in a frank, rhythmic and playful voice. Set in 2010, shortly before the revolution, it's a backpacking odyssey through tremendous temples, towering pyramids, chaotic cities, small villages and dirty beaches, with a backdrop of ancient spiritual gnosis!

A post-modern, pot smoking Egyptian pilgrimage.
