A sharp, allegorical drama about war, power, and peace that invites you to judge who truly rules the heart.
This four‑act play uses a courtroom of public opinion and vivid personifications to explore how war is chosen or stopped. With a blend of prophecy, argument, and dramatic imagery, it follows the tug of competing forces—Peace, Greed, Love, Mercy, and more—as they contend over whether the world should spark or end a conflict.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores a deep-rooted question about the origins of war and the role of the common laborer in its perpetuation. The author presents an allegorical court trial where Peace sues to rule the hearts of mankind. Against her are arrayed forces of Greed, Avarice, Jealousy, Slander and Lie, who argue for their own interests. As the trial progresses, witnesses for both sides speak to the fundamental nature of humanity and the consequences of violent conflict. Themes of social justice, the dangers of propaganda, and the search for a better way are interwoven throughout this imaginative and thought-provoking work. Through the author's unique perspective, this book sheds light on humanity's capacity for both great evil and great hope, offering a profound examination of the human condition and the path toward a more peaceful world.
