This play is set in a tavern in ancient Ur, near in time and place to the beginning of recorded history. The action of the play borders on the experimental, as it concerns the elevation in rank of a lowly slave to the highest levels of society in the confines of a single room. The mythology and imagery of the play reflect what we know of ancient Sumerian mythology, craftsmanship, and costume. The dialogue is enhanced by the rhythmic meter of the words, which includes the exploration of the caesura as a dramatic device. Because there is nudity in the play, it is certainly not for everyone. However, it is hoped that for many the experience of seeing the play performed--whether on stage or in one's mind--will at least be provocative, and perhaps, for some, profound.

This is a Christian work. It was written partly in opposition to those Christians who condemn people with HIV/AIDS. It was also written in sympathy with those afflicted with HIV/AIDS and to encourage all who are enduring pain and suffering. God loves those who are suffering--he is not punishing them. He may not show us why people suffer, or why we ourselves are suffering, but he clearly demonstrates through the person of Jesus Christ that he is a loving God. Jesus healed those who were sick, he did not condemn them. It is hoped these verses will provide a moment of comfort to those who are suffering.

"Eyes of the Dragon" was written in response to a request by the DPRK for the author to write a poem on the occasion of the Birth Anniversary of the Dear Leader, Kim Jong Il, on February 16th, 2018. The book reflects a more balanced view of the harsh sanctions placed on Korea than is commonly seen in many countries. The poetry and imagery of the book are compelling and will entertain even those people who do not entirely agree with the message of the book. "Eyes of the Dragon" fits neatly in between Mr. Todd's other poetic books about the current situation in Korea: "Kim Jong Un: The Director", and "The Eight Spectacular Maidens and the Flame of Juche". Geoffrey A. Todd has been awarded a Diploma from the Korean Committee for Cultural Relations with Foreign Countries (KCCRFC).
