“....A Heart Alone in the Land of Darkness is a parable calling for compassion. The vibrant and simplistic drawings show of a Heart that searches for an owner in a land where most are no longer human. It offers the opportunity to feel and love to a Calculator Man who cares only about numbers, a Poet who flees love, and a Dictator obsessed with control, and a TV producer who cannot see beyond fame and popular consumption. The Heart strives ever to balance soulless ways of thinking, and turn the land of darkness into a land of light by showing people the joys of love and caring. An enduring, uplifting story meant to be shared among readers age 5 to adult.”
