"During: It is taking me a really unnaturally long time to wade through these two titles (this one, and Catholics) . . . it is frustrating to my SOUL to not be ripping through at least a couple books every weekish or two-weeksish or so . . . I need like a rip-roarin' YA adventure (e.g. Pullman) or like a something murderous and grotesque (e.g. Carr) to help tide me through this quiescent bit of trudging (happily, mind) through these gentle, mindful, careful little lovelies. Ideas? Stephen King just recommended something called Shatter, which maybe?
After: Would I have enjoyed this so thoroughly if Franny hadn't read it? I'm guessing no. But! Doesn't matter! Coz she did! And I did! SO thoroughly."
"Excellent book on prayer. Good narrative about a pilgrim's journey and encounters with others. Many helpful ideas about communication with God. Clearly written and enjoyable to read."
"Fantastic introduction to Orthodox Christian contemplative life (I hate to use the word "Spirituality" since it has so many widespread associations). Some say it was written by an Athonite monk as an introduction to novices to inspire them into reading "The Philokalia". Well, served as a great introduction in my case to seek out further the many volumes of The Philokalia."
"I read this in the middle of a deep spiritual experience on an Indian train, and was very moved by it. Yet I can't remember almost anything from the book anymore. It was good though. ;) I find the first book much better than the second, which almost seems like a poor imitation of the writing to me."
