J.R. Izquierdo
J. R. Izquierdo, also known as Joe, is the author of the suspenseful novel Involuntarius. In his magnum opus, he delves into the philosophical idea that we are all living in a dream, arguing that the nature of reality itself is potentially unreal, challenging our understanding of free will and personal agency.
