From GoodReads: "Finally, after over forty years of silence, Walter Starcke reveals the private side of Joel Goldsmith and the sometimes tumultuous and often inspiring experiences included in their eighteen year relationship. Joel Goldsmith and I reads like a novel as it follows successful Broadway Producer, Naval Officer, and Entrepreneur Walter Starcke, through his years with New Thought pioneer, Joel Goldsmith. During their 18 years together, Starcke was transformed into a Practical Mystic. \"With simple and deeply personal eloquence, Walter Starcke explores for us a way out of and above the finally fatal world of materialism.\" - Tennesee Williams. Joel and I is an autobiographical peek into his life-altering, father-son type relationship with Joel Goldsmith, a renowned spiritual practitioner and Christian mystic. Starcke was once known primarily for his success on Broadway, where he became one of the youngest ever to receive the New York Drama Critics Award for his production of I Am a Camera, which later became Cabaret. His social circle included literary giants such as Tennesee Williams and Gore Vidal, and the director and playwright John van Druten, who introduced Starcke to Goldsmith, instigating the beginning of his spiritual quest and career. Goldsmith's mystical message is described by some as among the most important contributions of the 20th Century, yet few know anything of the man and the price he paid to bring forth his great teaching. Walter Starcke, who was at Joels side for 18 years, traveled with him, and introduced him from the platform on his first talks in New York and London, paints an intimate picture of the ups and downs of his personal relationship with Goldsmith. Born into a Jewish family, Goldsmith eventually turned to Christian Science, where he became a successful and respected practitioner, only to lose favor with the denomination when his own spiritual convictions began to filter into his teachings. He went on to found The Infinite Way method, centered on the concept that the truth is found only by becoming one with the subjective through meditation and contemplative practices. Joel told Starcke that his message had further to go. Starcke shares with us an over-view of his own message, especially as it relates to his roots. Starckes message that its time to close the gap between our divinity and our humanity, contuinues the Turths revealed in Joels work. It is important to reveal the personal side of Goldsmith in order for his message to be fully appreciated. Readers will enjoy the full scope of this book. It is full of personal photos, letters, biographical information, and spiritual insights." GoodcReads rating: 4.56 stars. 1st ed? (No additional printings listed. Softcover. Fine - As New condition.
