The author, Alsadah, definitely knows philosophy and how to incorporate it in stories. I really enjoyed reading this story. I read the entire book in less than three hours. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves learning about philosophy. – Amazon Review
Café de Sophia
LITERARY TITAN BOOK AWARD WINNER
While in a café, sixteen-year-old Nate comes across a man who engages him in an intellectual conversation.
Fascinated by the discussion, Nate befriends the man along with his other companions of philosophers in order to better understand his purpose and direction in life.
Every encounter with the philosophers explores a different topic that shapes the stepping stones of Nate’s journey. This journey toward the beauty of speech, logic, and wisdom is told in the Socratic dialogue fashion through Nate’s perspective.
“Wholly original with an enticingly absorbing narrative…
With far too much literary fiction seeming to come from the recycling bin these days, Café de Sophia is cut from new cloth and wholly original with an enticingly absorbing narrative. It’s a novel that rightly deserves your full attention with Alsadah achieving pitch-perfect balance between narrative and style. A read that is refreshingly devoid of archetypical characters whilst creating intricate shifts in perspective which are sure to engender much consideration.One of the criticisms often levelled at philosophical reads is that it’s hard to lose oneself in the complexity of such works, but Alsadah turns brevity to his advantage and the satisfaction of his readers. Delivering sharp, intelligent and above all intriguing philosophical musings, Café de Sophia is one of those rare gems of literary fiction that will linger in your memory for days and weeks to come.” -BookViral Reviews
