The Road to Enlightenment
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I wasn't sure what to expect when I began reading "Familiar Strangers." Gotham lent a fresh and insightful perspective on the importance of cultural consciousness. With all of the recent hate crimes taking place in our global community this book lead me to examine my own tolerance for others by expanding my awareness and compassion. It is a MUST READ!
A young Buddha in a new millennium.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I grabbed this book with a lot of skepticism and intrigue. I thought, what could he tell us that his father hasn't done yet? And after reading a few pages, I realized, I was reading the tale of a young prince seeking enlightment; the tale of a young Buddha in a new millennium. By reading your stories-Gotham, I saw the side of the coin that we constantly refused to see, and acknowledge, plus, I learned a whole lot about other cultures. "Familiar Strangers" gave answers to many whys that hung unclear in my mind. At the end I felt rewarded in many ways. Nice job. I will recommend "Familiar Strangers" to anyone seeking to expand the horizons of their knowledge and personal wisdom.
