J. Hayes Hurley is a novelist and a philosopher. He currently has forty-eight published novels including Those Brownsville Blues, The Adjunct, First Trilogy, Second Trilogy, and Motion and Rest. As well, he holds a Ph.D. in philosophy from Yale. Hurley contends, from an existentialist standpoint, that philosophy finds its best expression when contained in literature. His book covers display the works of well known painters. Altogether then, philosophy is contained in literature and literature is wrapped in art.
