The Unpolished Manuscript: Of A Diamond In The Rough...Portrait Of The Artist As A Human Being...Care & Feeding Of A Good Idea (Volume 1) CustomerReview

In his ambitious and hugely informative autobiography "the unpolished manuscript" David Alexander English writes at the beginning "in this case I don't even write my autobiography like other people"... I have a peculiar way of what some people would call "beating around the bush"... but what I like to call the smorgasbord approach to teaching or sharing information or telling a story".

A smorgasbord is a collection or variety of things... and wow, "the unpolished manuscript" is certainly this. Once I got used to David's unique style of writing and punctuation I was hooked. There is so much information offered so willingly in this book.

This is a candid story of David's life to date (2008) before and after his spiritual epiphany. Personally I'd say there's about three or four books in this one. It's an interesting and entertaining read. I prefer to think of it as a story that meanders like a deep cool river with many hidden depths... and I enjoyed my sail down David Alexander English's river! (There's a fantastic chicken recipe in the unpolished manuscript... I know because I cooked it the other day - yummmmmy- to coin a phrase of David's!).

David starts off by writing about his early years. And later years. His art. His family. David's drive to become financially independent and for his art to become financially viable. His first boyhood love, their amazing affinity and unfortunately brief friendship seems to have mapped his sometimes rocky relationships with the opposite sex since. David travels through the USA and describes his experiences. David's life involvement with the Rainbow Gathering and the efficient and effective engineering of every gathering is an amazing story in its own right. His honest and matter of fact description of the mind numbing stonewalling by certain authority figures who seem to be slightly afraid of large amounts of people gathering and react accordingly is an eye opener. David's absorbing Rainbow travels take him to such countries as Zambia, Australia, United Kingdom, Israel, Egypt, Hawaii to name but a few. David's mind boggling mathematics. Poetry. Meditations. His awesome artistic drive. His immense KNOWLEDGE.

"the unpolished manuscript" is like a fine wine... to be savoured slowly. The first half of the book jumps around quite a bit. The second half is more chronological. Fun, interesting, amazing, head shaking, tear inspiring, wondrous are just some of the words I'd use to describe this smorgasbord. I cannot label David. On the dust jacket of "the unpolished manuscript" David Alexander English describes his book as "autobiography of the artist, writer, poet, painter, sculptor, designer, cartoonist, astrologer, photographer, film maker, author, rainbow, burner, Virgo, Fire Rooster, world traveller, vagabond, free spirit, kite flyer, Frisbee master, professional dreamer, reiki master, visionary, imaginer, creative genius, spiritual guide, beach walker, body surfer, pilot/astronaut wannabe, crisis mechanic, amateur, philanthropist, sojourner/wanderer, divine metaphysician, lover, oracle, mirror, human being...." and yes, he is all of those.... and more. Don't be put off by the impressive size of the book. Take it a sip at a time. It's fun. Definitely worth the time and the read.
