Finally got around to ordering this. I found myself reading passages aloud just to sit with them. The historical context alone makes it worth the price. My only quibble is the cover feels thinner than expected. Happy enough with the purchase.
Long-time student of the esoteric here. I found myself reading passages aloud just to sit with them. It assumes more background than a beginner might have. Recommended with reservations.
Arrived faster than expected and well packaged. A text you study rather than simply read. A keeper.
Perfect companion for my morning study sessions. Not a light read, but far more accessible than I feared. Will be gifting a copy to a friend.
