More About the Author

Eliezer's first novel, Minyan: Ten Jewish Men in a World That is Heartbroken, was selected by National Book Award winner John Casey as the winner of the Peter Taylor Prize for the Novel. His memoir, The 99th Monkey: A Spiritual Journalist's Misadventures with Gurus, Messiahs, Sex, Psychedelics and Other Consciousness-Raising Experiments documents Eliezer's three decades on a spiritual search that took him all over the world, a path on which he "utterly failed to get enlightened." He was the Editor and Associate Publisher of The New Sun in the '70s, and more recently, the Publisher and Editor of The Wild Heart Journal. His first book, Wild Heart Dancing, was a do-it-yourself, guided creativity retreat based on his intensive workshops at Esalen Institute. Eliezer is also a certified teacher of the 5 Rhythms™ movement-as-meditaiton practice developed by Gabrielle Roth. He lives in Richmond, Virginia with his wife Shari Cordon and their three cats.
