This was true mystical vision. This I could never have anticipated. But I knew that we were both on the same galactic journey into the great void that contains us all. I was standing before a boundlessness that could swallow the stars in a heartbeat.--from Breakfast at the Victory

Still with me
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I came across this book in a bargain bin at a book-wholesaler-type-place in a strip mall in Traverse City, MI when I was in High School. I'm thirty now and haven't been back to Traverse since I left. But this book has gone with me everywhere--when not physically, then it is there in my outlook on life. Now I am re-reading it again. Thanks, Carse.
Poised and thoughtful. Mystic without dogma or preaching.

A short and perfect connection between spirituality and everyday life. Perfect for people who need help finding a spiritual side and can't stand to take leaps of faith. If this book was widely read, we would live in a better world.
A "bible" for today - and tomorrow.

My uncle had given me a copy last Christmas. We discussed the book, and its impact upon our lives, fairly often. When he was hospitalized late this year with what turned out to be fatal colon cancer, he insisted upon having his copy with him in the hospital. When you read Breakfast at the Victory, you'll understand why. Its one of those once-in-a-decade books that affect you for the rest of your life.
One of the ten best books I have ever read!

This is truly one of the ten best books I have ever read! It draws us into thinking about the fact that there are no ordinary experiences, and to reflect on the magic in everyday life. The essays are memorable, but you will want to read them more than once, and share them with your friends. This is a great gift book, but you will also want to keep your own copy
an eye-opening experience to the joys of everyday life

I had the pleasure of taking a philosphy course with James Carse at NYU, and "Breakfast at the Victory" truly captures his quest for day-to-day miracles. Moreso than his other writings, "Breakfast" reflects his spirit and fervor. A very inspirational and enjoyable read.
