Gurdjieff & the Work

The Armenian-born mystic, philosopher, and spiritual teacher G. I. Gurdjieff (c.1866-1949) is an enigmatic figure, the subject of a great deal of interest and speculation, but not easily fitting into any of the common categories of "esoteric," "occult," or "New Age."

Gold incorporates science fiction, magic realism, film references, humor and other linguistic devices to combat what he characterizes as the ignorance, selfishness, and sleep of the Trump mindset. Coincidentally, his writing also combats the sleep of the reader and suggests personal remedies and antidotes for apathy.

The author's ninth and final book on the Work is a comprehensive and factual account of Gurdjieff and The Fourth Way. Material from all of Gurdjieff's direct students and their library archives, much of it not available until recently, is assembled in chronological form as it happened.
