yes yes yes...
Ishmael changed my entire worldview when i first read it about 10 years ago... My Ishmael was good too... the Story of B rocked my world again, down to a whole new level. incredible stuff. i recommend to everyone (must read Ishmael first!), reread them every few years, and lend them out to friends whenever possible.

for more along the same lines, read Derrick Jensen's "A Language Older Than Words".

i did my senior project on Ishmael actually. Incredible book. I loaned it out and still have to get that back. I should do that today actually.

ooooh!!!

how serendipitous indeed... not regarding ishmael, but another life-altering book called the Celestine Prophecy (author is james redfield, i believe). ever read that? i read it just before discovering Ishmael...
anyways, i just found out they're making a movie based on the Celestine Prophecy. looks like it's highly expanded upon, but looks good...
