Description
这是一本写给全世界的书，每一个字都是。这是一本写给穆罕默德的书；写给佛陀的书；写给基督耶稣的书；写给全世界崇尚信仰的书。这是一本写给一群巨人、国王、孤独的哲学家、智慧的老人的书。这是一本写给神灵、写给自由人类的书。这是一本写给过去、现在、未来的书。这是一本写给黄人，黑人，白人，棕人的书。这是一本写给诗人，诗人写给诗人的书。我们必将终结一个旧时代，我们必将展开一个新时代。请相信我，全世界的人们啊，这是一本写给全世界的书。
毫无疑问，这是一本中国版的"神曲"，又是一本中国版的"海奥华奇书"。作者通过一个具有上下五千年文化历史的中国人视角，阐述了这一切。同时作者在对世界三大宗教的认知中，重新诠释了宗教信仰和圣经中众神的秘密以及对伊斯兰原教旨的鞭挞，当我重新诠释这一切的时候，我发誓，我，绝无任何亵渎它们的意思。我只是希望在全世界所有的宗教信仰中，添加上"人性"两个字，绝无亵渎。我只是妄图撬动神灵大厦，像蝼蚁般的在黑暗之处呐喊，祈求神灵啊！对你的子民好一点吧

As a child growing up in Malaysia, Shing Yin Khor had two very different ideas of what "America" meant.
The first looked a lot like Hollywood, full of beautiful people, sunlight, and freeways. The second looked more like The Grapes of Wrath—a nightmare landscape filled with impoverished people, broken-down cars, barren landscapes, and broken dreams.
