"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight... Eight cells vertically, and.. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven... And seven horizontally. The man sat on the stone cold floor, peering at the opposite wall of a human-size crate, he was locked into..." The book "Eclipse of Mind" comprises two captivating stories. In "Imprisoned," a man's fight for survival unfolds within the walls of an abandoned cell, a battle against odds that grip both his hope and his desperation. Locked doors, abandoned spaces, and days without sustenance - can he defy death's grasp? A haunting tale unfolds as a young woman struggles with guilt over the murder of a man whose ghost continues to haunt her until the very end. But is it the end? The story culminates in a surprising conclusion, revealed in "The One Who Stands in the Corner."

Throughout my life, I have always tried to be a calm child, who does not argue with anyone and to live in harmony with other people, try not to disturb them. But my alter ego in my head, always forced me to do bad things. To her, the only way to escape bullying was to fight fire with fire and do worse things to bad people who treated you very badly. The stranger in my mind was the one who ordered me to harm others in order to protect myself from them. I am neither your alter ego nor a stranger. I am you from the past and I will be you from the future. That's what she always told me whenever I thought about it. I would never know what this meant. All I knew, was that there was a connection between these evil thoughts and the memories that did not belong to me. And I was about to learn the terrible truth behind it.

Have you ever thought about the profound journey of reclaiming our minds? When exactly did we surrender the reins of our thoughts to others? And when did we agree to be mere pawns in someone else's game? Within these pages lies my unwavering battle to regain sovereignty over my mind. However, it is more than just my quest; it is a book brimming with inspiration, seeking to ignite the flame of empowerment within all who encounter its words. Delving into delicate subjects such as authenticity, the wild soul, the restrictive influence of societal norms, and the confines they impose on our unique souls, this book attempts to resonate with each reader, touching them in a single sentence, if not throughout the entire journey. This book was created not only for me but also for you. It was crafted for the "normal" and the "not-so-normal." It was designed for those who blend in and those who stand apart. It was written for all who inhabit this world as our true selves.

Maybe the end of humankind won't be the end, allowing for something else to be born. Maybe we truly aren't the only creatures that harbour a soul and maybe some of them have a deeper understanding of nature's internal clockwork than we do. Maybe the story of Alice in Wonderland is true, but with a more twisted turn than anticipated. Let your mind wander and discover these possibilities of reality through this book via different genre that exist in the literary world.
