Peace is Violence
About
A modern odyssey through snow, fire, and light—for readers of Paulo Coelho, Mitch Albom, and mythic literary fiction who want a quiet, dangerous little book that lingers.
Peace Is Violence is mythic, lyrical literary fiction told as a journey of confession.
John wakes in a world of ice and memory, guided only by a silent wolf-spirit named Ash. To leave, he must walk a symbolic road through his own damage: a river that hums like a heart, a bridge that burns without heat, a hall ruled by silence, a warehouse where rage is forged into form, and a garden that remembers love without turning it into worship.
This is for readers who love:
Mythic realism & metaphysical fiction
Psychological & spiritual literary fiction
Slim, parable-like novels that don’t preach but cut clean
What you’ll experience:
Fear turned into precise attention
Anger shaped instead of spilled
Grief made useful
Forgiveness lived quietly, not declared loudly
Why it resonates:
Cinematic, symbolic scenes
Lean, propulsive chapters
Luminous prose with emotional accuracy
A story you can read in an evening and carry for years
Perfect if you’re drawn to:
The journey-mind of The Odyssey
The moral clarity of Dante
The parable-light of The Alchemist
Inside the journey
Book I — Snow: stillness, reflection, the first honest breath
Book II — Fire: courage as craft; rage placed instead of thrown
Book III — Light: acceptance, renewal, the discipline of joy
