Home Within a Landscape (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781639881949)

With all disagreements and calamities pushing us apart from each other, it seems unachievable to turn things around. If only we could glimpse what this momentous turn might look like. Maybe it will encourage us enough to pool all our strength and just do it.

We might realize that some of our immediate neighbors, the unapproachable tycoons and celebrities, the most influential politicians, our devoted teachers, war veterans, even foreign monarchs, and the Pope are also striving for this turn. And all it takes is one decisive move. So, let us see how it could unfold and what treasures we will begin uncovering along the way.

The United States takes it upon itself to untangle the country from the deadly grip of unresolvable world affairs. It starts the practical healing by building a reasonable future and placing its bet on reasonable people in all walks of life. Watch a private prison guard teaching an intellectual gay woman from Boston target shooting at a local range; meet a gifted biology student from North Korea giving an unorthodox analysis of Hamlet; or read a personal rendering of the Exodus, and the American history of slavery, in the diary of a suicidal IT specialist. You will see how much more rich in thoughts our souls are, far richer than we expect them to be.

After all, if St. Francis could establish peace between villagers and a wolf, nothing is out of our reach in our Home within a Landscape.

"Home Within a Landscape is a revelatory glimpse of the human experience in a world that is attempting to make things right. The lyrical quality of this tale sings, and it's a top-notch story in the dystopian genre." - Readers' Favorite

"Home Within a Landscape offers us the chance to reflect on who we are when we write philosophy. It questions how we can use the ideas taught in liberal arts colleges to tackle real political problems and become better people." - Independent Book Review
