Ishmael by Daniel Quinn won the 1991 Turner Tomorrow Fellowship Award and is a philosophical novel that critiques modern civilization's cultural myths of human supremacy and its impact on the environment. The story uses a Socratic dialogue between a man and a telepathic gorilla named Ishmael to challenge the reader's assumptions about progress and sustainability, dividing humanity into "Takers" (modern culture) and "Leavers" (simpler cultures).
