Description
A disillusioned man answers a newspaper advertisement offering the chance to save the world and finds himself in dialogue with an extraordinary teacher: a telepathic gorilla named Ishmael. Through their probing conversations, he examines the myths underlying modern civilization, humanity’s relationship with the natural world, and the assumptions that shape environmental destruction. Blending philosophical inquiry, ecological thought, and accessible storytelling, the book challenges readers to reconsider what it means to live responsibly on a shared planet.
