Recenzii
Mooney renders the difficulties of Kierkegaard readily accessible, and numerous chapters make effective primers for its various thinkers. [This book] makes for compelling and engaging reading.
In Ed Mooney's writing, the best of philosophy, poetry, religion, and storytelling flow together beautifully. Every book Mooney writes is better than the last, and this, his latest, surpasses his already magnificent earlier writings. Mooney's sentences are a lens through which I feel I can see the world's subtly connected wonders more clearly.
Edward Mooney's philosophical reflections are lively, engaging, and personal, always keeping existential relevance at the forefront of their reader's attention. Here, in his newest collection of essays, Mooney bears witness to a fully enchanted world while resisting the dubious allure of easy answers.
In writing for the soul rather than the self, Mooney's aim is not to advance philosophy or literature, but to transform his readers, one by one.
