About this listen
From Surat’s creation and what led up to it, the book progresses into sections covering his writings and comments on various topics. It deals with existential, humanistic, inequality, environmental, and ethical issues important today. Chapters include: Life, Nature & Evolution, Reality, Science, Humans, Contradictions, Superstition, Religion, Morality, History, Perceptions & Awareness, and others.
This book is for people who love to think and explore, who use their imagination to seek greater awareness, and who are not afraid of having their notions and beliefs challenged. It is also for those who might need to be encouraged to do so.
And there is some humor as well!
“It's an absorbing novel. At times, I think I am reading non-fiction. What a pleasure. I find myself, in conversations with others, talking about things I either discovered or remembered from long ago in your novel. All ‘things’ in your novel are marvelous. Readers will not be able to stop discussing it....I am reminded in your piece, often, of the importance of truth.”
—Karla Alwes, Professor of Literature
“This is an amazing work—the range of topics covered, the celebration of the vast expanse of the universe, including the gigantic celestial bodies and the terrestrial miniature life—all presented with breathtaking precision, along with thrilling insight and sharp criticism of the conduct of Homo sapiens, and many pearls of wisdom.”
—Njeru Murage, Professor of History
