e all been built from a sense of isolation. It is within these moments that the author's truth finds its way from pen to paper. Conference of the Isolated attempts to reopen a dialogue, one that is missing from today's climate. A life lived must be worth living, and as we struggled together through these past few years, it became apparent that isolation would be at the forefront of our very existence, forced in some cases, voluntary in others. Conference of the Isolated not only tackles the loneliness of this period but dwells on the past as it relates to the great works of our time, much of which has never seen the light of day. Along the way, recollections of the past, remembrances of those we lost, and a hope for a better tomorrow all reign in word play.
