Icarus of Brooklyn: A Spiritual Quest Gone Wrong
Icarus is a treasure, an epic tale, beautifully written, of the expansion and conquest of one's own mind told with humor and humility that is impossible to put down. As Alper skillfully guides the reader through this universal, yet deeply personal quest for ultimate meaning, he meets his biggest fears, simultaneously forcing us to meet ours. Icarus is an inspiring and highly entertaining story, not just a book really but an experience, with astonishing transformative power. Any teenager, adult, atheist or spiritual seeker who opens this book will not be the same person at closing it--guaranteed. --J. Perch, MD, Princeton University Medical CenterBold, Innovative, Triumphant! A must read for anyone who s questioned the meaning of existence. --A. Sadwin, MD, Chief of Neuropsychiatry, Graduate Hospital, University of PennsylvaniaA philosophical rollercoaster ride that will make you think, laugh out loud and cry all in one sitting. In a word, Brilliant! --S. Harney, Ph.D. Baruch College
