White Violence

This book could be viewed as a companion work to my earlier book, “What Harvard and Princeton Don’t Want You to Know” which is an examination into the flawed premises of philosophers such as David Hume and Immanuel Kant who are most influential on the ideas of modern society including John Dewey and the pragmatists who run society.

Ich sollte ein neues Leben beginnen. Ohne Erinnerungen an das, was geschehen ist. Und vor allem ohne ihn. Aber das kann ich nicht. Winters Verschwinden zwingt Dante beinah in die Knie. In der Hoffnung, sie zu vergessen, stürzt er sich in die Arbeit, bis er feststellen muss, dass sein Plan gescheitert ist. Die Monster der Vergangenheit werden Winter nicht gehen lassen.
