His name is Prot. Nobody knows where he's from. And everyone wants to go there.Psychiatrist Gene Brewer doesn't have a diagnosis for the mysterious new patient who calls himself "prot" (rhymes with goat).But this strange and likeable man cannot be-as he claims-from the planet K-PAX.Or can he?Prot knows facts about space that are confounding the experts.He is soon revealing Dr. Brewer's own deepest pains and most sublime longings.And his tales of K-PAX have other patients competing to go along with him when he heads "home."Now the doctor is racing the clock to find prot's true identity before he loses a man whose "madness" might just save them all....Published in a dozen countries with movie rights sold to the producer of Field of Dreams, K-PAX has touched the hearts and expanded the horizons of readers around the world.It promises to join Robert Heinlein's classic Stranger in a Strange Land as a moving, thought-provoking masterpiece of modern-day fiction.AUTHORBIO: Gene Brewer was born and raised in Muncie, Indiana, and educated at DePauw University and the University of Wisconsin, Madison.Before becoming a novelist, he studied DNA replication and cell division at several major research institutions.Dr. Brewer lives in New York City with his wife and Dalmatian.
