He was a rebel and an anarchist. He was a diligent student of the Bible. He was a paranoid schizophrenic... ----Incarcerated for 26 years in a vast psychiatric facility, the narrator of Nine Ninety-Nine hates the hospital with a passion. Each of the hated treatments he receives symbolizes various social and political factors. He views the hospital and all those who attempt to treat him as part of a frightening, malevolent and sadistic outfit. ----And yet, there is something more waiting for him, something outside of the hospital walls. As his story progresses down unknown paths, he may find something beyond the illness that has debilitated him for so long in the eye-opening journey of Nine Ninety-Nine.

Allison Hong is not your typical fifteen-year-old Taiwanese girl. Unwilling to bend to the conditioning of her Chinese culture, which demands that women submit to men’s will, she disobeys her father’s demand to stay in their faith tradition, Buddhism, and instead joins the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Then, six years later, she drops out of college to serve a mission—a decision for which her father disowns her. After serving her mission in Taiwan, twenty-two-year-old Allison marries her Chinese-speaking American boyfriend, Cameron Chastain. But sixteen months later, Allison returns home to their Texas apartment and is shocked to discover that, in her two-hour absence, Cameron has taken all the money, moved out, and filed for divorce. Desperate for love and acceptance, Allison moves to Utah and enlists in an imaginary, unforgiving dating war against the bachelorettes at Brigham Young University, where the rules don’t make sense—and winning isn’t what she thought it would be.

Many stories have been written and movies made of the astronauts and the Apollo flights which the world is privy to, but to my knowledge nothing has been written about the thousands of people in the back shops of manufacturing plants throughout the nations that gave their blood sweat and tears to create these spacecrafts in a short period of time. Their story needs to be told.

At times, we are blessed with the simple life. We glide effortlessly through our days, upward and onward. Unfortunately, we rarely look closely at what is guiding us. Usually, what guides us is not enough to sustain the joyful simplicity we see. We overlook the true meaning of existence and how we are being directed, much to our detriment. Then there are the realists. They see life for the miracle it is. They surrender to a greater power with no filter, open to the worlds full potential. Yet, there is only one who can call forth the ninety-nine names, and that one is God. He is the real key to finding the truth of our hearts, where we came from, and the purpose we serve. In the span of ninety-nine poems of love, find connection to a higher power. Find the truth of Gods attributes within you and the realm in which we live. Understand things you have never understood before. Your faith in the greater good denotes the strength of your character. Now, read, reflect, worship, and let the words sink in.
