One of the most beloved and bestselling novels of spiritual adventure ever published, Ishmael has earned a passionate following among readers and critics alike. This special twenty-fifth anniversary edition features a new foreword and afterword by the author, as well as an excerpt from My Ishmael.

TEACHER SEEKS PUPIL.
Must have an earnest desire to save the world. Apply in person.

It was just a three-line ad in the personals section, but it launched the adventure of a lifetime.

So begins an utterly unique and captivating novel. In Ishmael, which received the Turner Tomorrow Fellowship for the best work of fiction offering positive solutions to global problems, Daniel Quinn parses humanity's origins and its relationship with nature, in search of an answer to this challenging question: How can we save the world from ourselves?

Praise for Ishmael

"As suspenseful, inventive, and socially urgent as any fiction or nonfiction you are likely to read this or any other year."--The Austin Chronicle

"Before we're halfway through this slim book . . . we're in Daniel Quinn's] grip, we want Ishmael to teach us how to save the planet from ourselves. We want to change our lives."--The Washington Post

"Arthur Koestler, in an essay in which he wondered whether mankind would go the way of the dinosaur, formulated what he called the Dinosaur's Prayer: 'Lord, a little more time ' Ishmael does its bit to answer that prayer and may just possibly have bought us all a little more time."--Los Angeles Times

Beautiful! Exactly what I was looking for!
Size: 12 Inch, Color: Gold, Size: 12 Inch, Color: Gold
Sturdy, well contructed, and an even natural gold finish. Come with two different wall anchors and brass screws. Installation is easy. Just take your time measuring and drilling holes. I purchased finished white shelves from the closet section of home depot, $7 a piece. Gives them a nice finished look. They measure 3/4” x 11.75” x 24”. The brackets are 12” deep so there is a slight gap at the front but its not noticeable. Highly reccomend.

Find something else
Size: 4 Inch, Color: Black
I wish zero stars was an option. The quality was mediocre at best with 2 of the brackets not a proper 90 degrees and the supplied screws do NOT fit the supplied drywall anchors. They are WAY too small. What a complete waste of time and energy. I stupidly was willing to overlook the 2 defective brackets because I really only needed 3 for my shelf. That’s when I discovered that the supplied screws are too small for the supplied anchors. Now I have 6 holes in my wall that need to be patched from the 3 brackets I tried to use. Luckily I was able to back the anchors out of the wall so I could fully return this garbage to Amazon for a refund. Find something else and pass this by. Why can’t anything be easy anymore? At least Amazon has a good return policy but I really wish they would find a way to vett these products better before allowing them to list on the platform. Tomorrow off to UPS to return.

Cute and functional

I wanted something to spruce up a corner in my kitchen and these did the trick. They were easy to install and look great. I use mine for small items and they hold up no problem!
