Facets of Perception - Paperback

by J. W. Capek (Author)

"If you were a diamond from another universe and falling to earth this night, there would be a milieu of facets of light to experience. Facets of light, time, emotion, and colors..."

In Facets of Perception: Stories of Transformation and Survival, J.W. Capek examines reality as something shaped by perception rather than certainty. The collection opens by questioning authority, knowledge, and truth, then expands into speculative, philosophical, and science- fiction terrain. Stories move from cosmic and conceptual explorations toward more intimate, grounded narratives that examine relationships, disability, memory, and resilience.

As the collection turns inward, it remains rooted in wonder, asking how belief and experience shape the worlds we inhabit. The final section returns to place and survival, culminating in Deerwhere Codex: Estuary, a novella that gathers the collection's themes into a resonant conclusion. Together, these stories form a mosaic of transformation, each facet reflecting a different way of seeing.
