This book was an absolute pleasure to read, cover to cover. “From now on I will divide the books I have read into two categories - the ones I read before Ishmael and those read after. “
It took only five pages to completely capture my interest and mind at the same time. Although it is a very rare occasion for me to read a novel, this book is simply more then just an entertaining story. It brings to focus a lot of questions that one should be asking every single hour. How do things come to be this way? How did man become man? Who has knowledge?
Go, Read it - now!
"Man's destiny was to conquer and rule the world, and this is what he's done--almost. He hasn't quite made it, and it looks as though this may be his undoing. The problem is that man's conquest of the world has itself devastated the world. And in spite of all the mastery we've attained, we don't have enough mastery to stop devastating the world--or to repair the devastation we've already wrought.
