SOCRATES WITHOUT TEARS is a beautifully written Novella which reveals the exciting discovery of the long lost Dialogues of Socrates by his devoted pupil Aeschines. They give us a totally different picture of Socrates' great wisdom told with amusement and irony. It shows Socrates connection with Eastern Non Dual Thought and portrays the mildly camp atmosphere of the Symposium in graphic form .It will appeal to all seekers after truth in a palatable form and as the title says 'without tears'.
Alan Jacobs has produced a beautifully constructed novella, written in his inimitable verse style. As with all his books, he brings ancient nondual teachings to a contemporary audience through wit, irony and a command of the poetic meter. Alan Jacobs is a writer of rare talent indeed.
