Open When You Are Ben Ackerman

Gabel's magical eatery is always open, feeding hungry hearts, bodies, and souls. When Strad, a young man at odds with life, wanders in, an uncanny encounter propels him on a journey to the hidden Fifth-Dimension of Altruego. He meets a people with ancient roots and a mysterious mission, whose curious customs and odd-sounding ideas somehow snap the missing puzzle pieces of Strad's life into place. After a startling discovery and some "mystical" cooking lessons from Gabel, Strad returns home ready to bring the harmonizing secret of Fifth-Dimensional vision to a world constrained by the four dimensions of space and time, and gasping for spiritual air. But a powerful foe with an insidious agenda is just as driven to see him fail. In the short time it takes to read this dynamic, entertaining novel, you'll gain an electrifying new perspective on reality. Altruego may be an allegory, but its door to a different dimension is real, and OPEN -- when YOU are.
