  Shunrō Oshikawa (1876-1914) was one the two most important founders of Japanese science fiction (the other being Unno Juza, 1897-1949). This story is a charming tribute to all those engaged in historical research. A young Portuguese child discovers an empty beer bottle on a beach. Her father, a well known scientist, discovers a message inside that may solve one of the greatest mysteries in the West African chronicles.  
  This is a radio version, and not a translation. It has been adapted for historyradio.org by Michael Henrik Wynn, and he also plays the part of the traveler.

  This Audiobook collection therapeutic poetry ( Book 1 of 3 ) of his REFLECTION SERIES that marked the beginning of Stephens’ literary journey. As soon as you hear, the narrator‘s voice, an army veteran himself, his highs and his lows don’t just read words they tell the story the way it should be told . A raw reflection and survival, The Mirror: Black Edition confronts trauma, PTSD, and resilience through verse. Each poem acts as a mirror, inviting readers to confront their own scars while discovering the strength to endure. If this Audiobook can help one person in the dark or in silence, then it was worth every cent I spend creating this vision.  Thank you for taking the time to sample or purchase.  
  Thank you
