(PRLeap.com) "Of Grand Design", a new book by Clayton Elgin Strickland, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.Author and modern-day Renaissance man Clayton Elgin Strickland invites readers to step beyond the mundane with his new book, "Of Grand Design". Far more than a standard poetry collection, the work is a meticulously structured tapestry of verse that weaves a grand narrative through the mysteries of the cosmos and the human psyche.
"Of Grand Design" challenges the intellect as much as the heart. Through themes of time travel, cosmic forces, and cryptid mysteries, Strickland leads a journey into the "untamed wilds of the mind." The book is designed for multiple readings, featuring hidden messages and layers of meaning that reveal new perspectives with every encounter. In an increasingly chaotic world, these poems serve as a vital call to reflection and adventure.
He wants readers to walk away with a sense of wonder. He hopes these words ignite curiosity and inspire people to recognize the grand design in their own lives, to see that there is something magnificent beyond what is visible.
