Breakfast at the Victory: The Mysticism of Ordinary Experience by James P. Carse

The author explores manifestations of the divine in his daily life in this blend of spiritual meditation and memoir.

Tapping spiritual sources that range from the silence of the Buddha to the words of Robert Forst, James Carse uncovers the rich paradoxes of everyday experience and emerges as a genuine American mystic. Breakfast at the Victory, Carse writes, is “an invitation to see how extraordinary the ordinary is.” After reading it, life may never appear the same.
