The Triumph of Richard Desmond: A Novel

Fate . . . Free Will . . . Destiny . . . Predestination. What do all these have in common? Do human beings really have free will, or does God and Nature have a say in the matter?

This novel answers those questions for one person in particular. Richard Desmond lived at the end of the 20th Century and was both an accountant and a poet. When he was forty-eight years-old he lost his job but found true love. His life's portrait was composed of a series of choices; and whether they were good or bad, readers must decide for themselves.
