Ishmael


The Book That Will Change How You See the World

Ever had the nagging feeling that something is deeply wrong with modern civilization—but you can’t quite put your finger on it? Buckle up, because Ishmael is about to blow your mind.

In this cult-classic novel, a man answers a curious newspaper ad: “Teacher seeks pupil. Must have an earnest desire to save the world.” Intrigued, he embarks on an unexpected journey of philosophy, ecology, and human history—led by none other than a highly intelligent, telepathic gorilla named Ishmael (yes, you read that right).

Through deep, Socratic-style conversations, Ishmael dismantles everything we think we know about human progress, civilization, and our relationship with nature. He challenges the stories we’ve been told—the myths that say humans were meant to conquer the planet, that history is just an endless march of progress, and that the way we live now is the only way. Spoiler alert: It’s not.

Why Ishmael Is a Must-Read:

  • Mind-Blowing Perspective – This book flips the script on everything from agriculture to capitalism.
  • Accessible Yet Profound – It’s an easy read, but the ideas will stick with you forever.
  • A Call to Action – If you’ve ever felt like humanity needs a new story, this book offers a radical (but hopeful) path forward.

Whether you’re an eco-warrior, a deep thinker, or just someone who loves books that make you question everything, Ishmael is a game-changer.
