Ishmael
I wan to thank my professor for instructing me to read Ishmael. It has been recommended to me over the years but I just never picked it up. Now I feel like I wasted a bunch of time. I could of had this great read in my psyche for years now. I am seriously grateful though. I loved this book so much. I talk about it all the time and share about it with my friends. I am totally a fan and now recommend this book. I love that Ishmael is a gorilla who speaks telepathically to his students. Sometimes while I was reading the book, I forgot that it was written by a human. Quinn breaks down our culture so well and really opens the readers eyes to what we look like from an outside perspective. If anyone is into soul searching and self-analyzation, they know that having a grasp on your patterns and behaviors is major in making real changes in who you are. Quinn paints a great picture of who we were and what we have become as a species so well that it is almost depressing to take it all in. There is something inspiring though about knowing that if enough people got on this same trip that we might be able to save this sinking ship, which is going down fast.
