Joel Kovel has been a prestigious and best-selling writer on psychotherapy, a militant left activist from the middle 1960s onward, an eco-theorist and an explorer of the world just beyond our sense perceptions.
Abstract:
-
Excerpt:
It should be a given that no memoir is inherently "strange." Every life is lived uniquely and has its own special qualities, drawn out at length (or not) by the writer. In "The Lost Traveller’s Dream," Kovel has managed to summon up a spirit that transcends as well as living within its, or his, own time. This is a life "beyond," something possible at any time but valuable especially in an era of collapse, catastrophe, and perhaps improbable hope.
