Stan I.S. Law (aka Stanislaw Kapuscinski) has been educated in Poland and England. His fiction and non-fiction attest to his particular passion for the scope and the development of human potential.
––––––––
As an architect [RIBA, MRAIC, OAQ ret.], he designed a number high rise buildings in Montreal, including the Regency Hyatt Hotel (now Delta), Place Mercantile, Headquarters for the Mutual Alliance, as well as a number of low and middle rise structures for private clients. In the National Capital he was the associate in charge of design of Royal Bank Headquarters on Sparks Street.
–––––––
He was thus described by the editor of The Avatar Syndrome: "A product of the expansive cultural landscape of our times, Law, an architect, sculptor and a consummate student of ancient myths, fuses the teachings of Lao Tzu, Jesus, St Thomas Aquinas and Indian mysticism with contemporary issues of family, youth, feminism, fame and power to deliver a singular vision of what it could mean to be human."
Kate Jones of Pasadena MD, USA so describes the author and his latest novel, The Gate, Things my Mother told me: Stan Law must be one of today's most unusual writers: he can create intellectual excitement with nothing but introspective dialogues, mind-stretching explorations of complex concepts like life, death, love and loyalty... (his) writing has classical grandeur and poetic beauty... This is a jewel of a piece of writing... If you value the life of the mind, this book is for you.
Accomplishments: Nominated for CBC Literary Award
Following my promotional campaign, Amazon.com had placed (if for a brief time) The Avatar Syndrome on their home page among the New York Times bestsellers.

 | Enigma of the Second Coming by Stan I.S Law
While the Enigma belongs in the Vision/Metaphysical category, elsewhere it is also listed under Speculative Fiction. In the absence of such, I shall list it in the Science Fiction, which covers a broad spectrum of subjects explored in this book. The editor, Bryn Symonds encapsulates it as follows:
A love story, visionary fiction, mysticism, theology and a personal journey.
