    About this ebook

    Life in Yellow is a collection of free-verse poetry that tries to capture the life of a writer, who lives in a world where trends, colors, fashion, and technology are changing very fast, and where the meaning of life changes from one year to the next. He lives on Earth in an alternate future and is a well-known author of fiction and free-verse poetry, that lives in the United States of All Colors. Contacted by a literary agent who lived more than a hundred light-years from him, he agrees to write a unique poem book that describes the society in which he lives, of course, for a substantial compensation. Our main character describes his experiences with his shifted perceptions on what sometimes seems an almost surreal world, where people live out-of-time feelings, foresee the future in short glimpses, blend reality with the digital world, and most of all, enjoy a world that praises fashion, art, and colors.

    Enjoy another original concept poetry book from the "Timeless Adventures" series.

      My grandfather was a mine captain on Randfontein Estates Mines. According to my mother, he had a short temper and a gruff manner, and made his co-workers tremble in their boots. But it’s not how I remember him. To me he was simply my grandpa who like
