Imagine a time and space traveler from another planet. One that looks human and exemplifies the ideal world he comes from, a world free from human nature's greed and cruelty. That creature would be "prot," as he calls himself, the newest patient at the Manhattan Psychiatric Institute. Prot seems to know more than he should about faster-than-the-speed-of-light-travel. And besides drawing constellations as viewed from K-PAX, the name of his home planet, "prot" can describe its orbit around double suns in unpublished detail. Who is "prot" and where did he really come from? Why does he have the ability to cure severe mental cases? And to disappear at will? And to charm everyone he comes into contact with? Bizarre delusion or reality? Listen in as a psychiatrist who specializes in delusional behavior documents his sessions with the man from K-PAX.

Enligt mig ett mycket intressant tankeexperiment. Svår att lägga ifrån sig.

Helt jävla störtskön är den här boken! Är killen utomjording eller är han psykotisk? Är den här boken verklighetsbaserad eller är den påhittad? Kunde verkligen inte släppa den. Inte äta. Inte sova. Måste bara få veta hur det slutar! En av mina absolut bästa läsupplevelser!
