Until this first full biography of Max Ehrmann, author of the phenomenally successful Desiderata, the genius of this inspired humanist was lost. But no longer.
This biography:
This biography:

- Investigates his presence at a lynching.
- Shows why, as a young man, he explored the underworld of prostitution.
- Explains his gradual rejection of organised religion.
- Exposes the reasons behind his university friend’s suicide.
- Details how a Russian revolutionary, a Harvard professor and America’s Socialist leader made him more than a religious pluralist.
‘Finally, a Macbeth book that helps you act it. Dalgleish doesn’t lecture. He sits next to you in the rehearsal room and walks you through it. The Golden Notebook sections are gold. Real exercises, real questions, real doubts. The “King Macbeth” poem at the end gave me chills… Buy it, mark it up, take it to rehearsal.’

‘…an unusual and intriguing volume. He writes for readers who are interested in how things work with language, in drama, in literature and psychology. He probes beneath the surfaces of appearance and comes to his own unique, but substantiated conclusions… There isn’t an essay in the book I wasn’t fascinated by.’

‘Rarely have I felt such moral tension while reading a play. Adam’s inner conflict is portrayed with heartbreaking nuance, making every meeting and decision feel heavy with consequence. The intimate focus deepened the tragedy without sensationalism. It left me reflecting long after the final page. Profound, unsettling, and deeply human.’

Over the years, I have written and edited many books and I have worked with diverse theatre companies such as RAT, Volcano, Voices of the Holocaust and Carabosse. One of my favourite books is PLAYING MACBETH which Reader's Favorite called 'A Thrilling Journey' and 'Monumental' and with less hyperbole Amazon Audible USA called it 'Just plain excellent, beautiful language, loved it!'
'More than your average crime film.'
