    About this ebook

    Jophiel, Angel of the Beauty of the Eternal Presence, incarnates in a mid-western town to a lovely woman and her outlaw husband in this tale set in near-future America.
    The Arts and Sciences are in decay and the Angel Jophiel comes to the aid of a young composer, guiding him in the making of a new Renaissance, offering a fresh creative impulse for a world on the brink.
    Beauty is vanishing from the Earth. The Western World is in upheaval. Cities are in turmoil. Culture is in decay. The Arts are dead. Science and Technology are worshipped.
    Matter is the only reality... and Humanity alone doesn’t have the power to fight the enemy arrayed against it.
