Who is the real author? In the direct voice and eye-witness acccount of an anonymous spy uncovered during the recent FBI raid of the ex-presidential compound in Mar-a-Lago, FL, in the guise of the cryptically reclusive critic, scholar, and entertainer, Amory Patrick Blaine, there comes a startling love story and true tale of unthinkable evil, ideological warfare, and spine-chilling government secrets. But enter at your own discretion, for anyone who dares have access to this edited release and the unprecedented leak from the classified memoirs of a true undercover informant, both the world of spirit and material reality of our civilization itself will never be the same.
Book 1: "Missions Dangerous"
Analyzing the most heinous of hidden true historical crimes from the recently declassified papers and diaries of a compromised government informant, American Renaissance, Volume 1, traces the sudden rise and tragic ambition of the late political and socio-economic revolutionary, Sean Dorian Knight. A brilliant young American artist whose radical theory of art history at the turn of the millennium attracts a violent religious following that threatens to upend, not only the bonds of world peace as well as Wall Street, but forever change our faith in civilization as we know it.
Taken from the confidential government cables and confiscated journals of a young American soldier/spy and aspiring poet stranded in Paris at the time, the 1st person testimony is at once the story of one of the artist’s closest and most loving disciples, and an important public record of the narrator’s harrowing experience as the sole survivor of a mission of unspeakable evil and secrecy. Beginning sometime after a violent explosion in the City of Light, when having passed several days in a coma, he awakens only to discover that three of his platoon mates are dead. At the same time, he receives his shocking lethal orders from his new commanding officer and is ultimately faced with the cruel choice of having to either kill his best friend or the woman that he loves.
So, we are led through the eyes of an embedded informant on the mind-bending tale and cryptic path of art history, espionage, and government secrets: On the hunt for a mysterious enemy, one whose anonymous identity and prophesied rise – till this day – the government will use any amount of deadly force to keep hidden and destroy.
At times chilling in tone and hilarious in context, American Renaissance is the redacted and narrative compilation of a series of formerly classified documents and diaries of an ex-government informant. Made public here for the first time as a one-of-a-kind literary novel in the form of a memoir, it abounds with food for thought and cross-cultural insights for American, European, and international audiences alike.
Expertly edited and curated into three spellbinding volumes, American Renaissance, Volume 2 offers a unique perspective and appeal to fans of art history and literary suspense worldwide. Crafted for both the adventurous and discerning reader, it is a story of special cult-like interest to all kinds of emerging artists. As well as anyone with a creative mind who has opinionated about US foreign policy or been mystified by the CIA’s founding role in Modern art.
So, once again we are led through the eyes of our trusted and embedded informant on this mind-bending tale and cryptic path of art history, espionage, and government secrets: On the hunt for an adversary quite worthy of our deepest fears, before it finds us. Precisely, because its history is so finely interwoven into our cultural roots, our sacred literature, and the things foretold in our holy books. Even according to the official classified records from our most competent intelligence agencies, apparently, it is only a matter of time before the prophesied Doomsday and either He or She or It is destined to reappear. As we come ever closer to identifying the elusive signs and haunting proof that shows our most ancient and elusive enemy is, perhaps, already living amongst ourselves.
Book 3: "A Theocratic History of Lost Peoples & Romantics"
The enigma behind the death and/or disappearance of Sean Dorian Knight (1969-2001) and the artist’s brief and mysterious rise to fame is not one to be found in the history books. As a matter of fact, most contemporary critics will disavow he ever existed and minimize the impact of his posthumous influence as due to other factors. In like manner, all artworks previously attributed to him have either been destroyed, secretly purchased by the U.S. Government, or hidden by anonymous collectors until the controversy surrounding his oeuvre has passed.
But Dorian Knight’s greatest art was his life, and securing his rightful place at the apex of the history of Modern art is the daring proposition of Volume 3 of the book, American Renaissance. An existential tour de force whose sweeping poetic rendition of our contemporary history captures the spirit of art’s evolution from its Paleolithic beginnings all the way to the late 20th century.
At once achieving a literary tone reminiscent of works as distinct as “The Sympathizer” (the 2016 Pulitzer Prize in Fiction) or Donna Tartt’s “The Secret History,” American Renaissance enters the literary arena as an upmarket “Supernatural-spy-thriller.”
Perhaps what is most terrifying, however, are the consequences we are left with in the wake of this rogue spy’s final mission as a hunted man to at last reveal the brilliant scope of Dorian Knight’s vision and the true danger behind the prophecy the artist tried to communicate. As a one-of-a-kind memoir of espionage in novel form, it is a critically acclaimed and intellectually engaging mystery like no other in its daring quest to decode the final contradictions of Capitalism and the CIA’s deadly intervention into the lives of so many of the most legendary artists of our time.
