Dr. Raphael Rod Birney's Cities of the Soul is an inspired and inspiring fable that chronicles one traveler's soulfoul journey as she/he ventures from city to city, discovering along the way enlightenment. The traveler transitions from darkness and ignorance to illumination; from anger and judgement to compassion; from arrogance and pride to humility and respectfulness; and from ignorance to divine inspiration, wisdom, and the sublime. A traveler once lost, now found.
