About the book (taken from the book cover/jacket text):

Hard to meet in person; slips out before you get in. Hides behind masks and 500 different personalities. Some people claim they know him; or they think they have met him. Good one - reconsider, and start reading this book. In the end, you may find yourself being Alex Diamond.

“Where I come from, there is just dust, sand and sun, nothingness really; no past, just a present and a future, that’s why I was never born and will never die.” (Alex Diamond)

Alex Diamond
Don’t worry ‘bout a thing (Being Alex Diamond)
