Product Description Artists live where all dreams end. Truth, illusion are a dance of apparitions. In Paper Moon aspiring artist Ithiel Ingbar is on a quest, both disturbing and deadly, to unravel the complexities which make us human. What he discovers is a game changer, not only for his own life but all of humankind, a venture in which almost no one is, but everyone can be a winner. Review Renowned surrealist painter Rex Sexton is also a highly regarded writer, imbuing his fiction and poetry with the same startling vision and mastery he displays in his artwork.  His newest novel, Paper Moon, dazzles with words, just as his paintings do with form and color ... Sexton creates a dizzying madhouse of a world that exists beneath the surface of normal life.  The descriptions are extremely visual images as vivid as dreams and often as feverish as nightmares the cadence so perfect sometimes that passages beg to be read out loud.  Fans of Coleridge and Blake will not miss the allusions and undercurrents Sexton is both clever and creative, and Paper Moon is refreshingly intense, unusual in its complexity, and disquieting in its revelations.                         Five Stars (out of five)                         Cheryl Hibbard   ForeWord Reviews[Paper Moon] shows a broader picture of how society and greed have made a shambles of society and the economy a poet and artist [Sexton] has an ear and an eye for detail, and the impressionistic descriptions help illuminate the narrative Sexton proves to be an impressive wordsmith                             Kirkus Reviews
