Beautifully written and meticulously researched, this short book tells a story of exploration and miraculous discovery in modern-day Ethiopia, based around many historical figures and linking together figures as diverse as Solomon and Samuel Johnson. The Utopian society of Amhara, a secret ‘Shangri La’ established by Prester John in the inaccessible mountains, is imagined in depth and used to expound a non-dual philosophy not dissimilar to that of Ramana Maharshi. Whether your interest lies in history or poetry, philosophy or religion, there is much to stimulate and satisfy. Positive and life-affirming; the perfect antidote to the questionable values of modern, Western society. ~ Dennis Waite, author of several \"O Books\" including Enlightenment: the path through the jungle
Alan Jacobs' brilliant novella, Eutopia: The Gnostic Land of Prester John,entertainingly informs us how an ideal society run on radically different principles would be. It is a most refreshing and enlightening contrast from today's somewhat decadent modernity, and a great adventure story set in secret Ethiopia. This is yet another profound offering from a highly respected author. Paula Marvelly {Author] ~
