Title: Great insight, good read.
Product review: My first reading of this book blew me away as it introduced to me concepts of Christian belief that I was not familiar with. What I really liked about this book is the humble, self critical nature of the Abbot who is not the usual wise figure commonly portrayed, but instead a real human being like me on a journey. He's just travelled a bit further. But it is the end of the book that stayed with me. It ends with a whimper, not a bang, but I think that is the way it should be. On second reading I still loved this book but the writing flaws became more apparent. "Flaws" is too harsh, more that the writing architecture was evident where a more experienced writer could have hidden them better. Still, definitely worth a read.
